The D-List: March Week 3

Eric Massa - Former congressman Eric Massa initially left office due to “illness”, then alleged he was being “forced out”, then used the catch all excuse of wanting to get out of the “toxic” environment of D.C., then reports of him having tickle fights with young male staffers surfaced. Massa verified those reports and elaborated to say multiple young staffers were involved and that groping was involved but it was “okay” because it was his 50th birthday. Other shenanigans he liked to undertake with his underpaid staffers, that he kept close in a living space that he facilitated for all of them, were his self-trademarked “Massa Massages” and “snorkeling”, a bedtime under the covers activity. When asked if he was gay he said he wouldn’t answer that question but to ask his wife and the 10,000 guys he served with in the Navy.

Nancy Pelosi - For urging that the health care bill to be passed so we can see what’s in it. Pelosi stated that Congress "[has] to pass the bill so you can find out what's in it, away from the fog of controversy." Similar to other claims that voters will like ObamaCare better once it’s passed and they get used to it.

Gilbert Arenas - He was suspended from the NBA for his gun antics in the locker room and for making light of it on the court. Recently Arenas admitted to Esquire magazine that he was rightfully punished for his actions and that at one point in time he had as many as 500 firearms in his home.

Christine Brennan - Christine is the columnist that ripped Obama last year for filling out a Men's NCAA Bracket on Sportscenter but not a Women's bracket. I nominate her now because Obama caved and filled out a women's bracket this year too to avoid another firestorm of controversy from idiots like Christine.

Barack Obama - For succumbing to the pressure of the media and filling out a Women's NCAA Bracket after the backlash from last year when he publicly filled out only a Men's NCAA Bracket

Somali Pirates - for their idiocy in not being able to tell the difference between a merchant ship and a war ship and attacking it. O ya, and they’re pirates.

International Maritime Lawmakers - for ridiculous laws that discourage piracy none at all. In the case of the EU Naval Force vs the Somali Pirates, the EU Naval Force only apprehended the weapons aboard the pirate skiff, but took no further action against the pirates and even let them go.

Ron Washington - The manager of the Texas Rangers test positive for cocaine use during the 2009 MLB season. There's not really any further explanation of this nomination necessary.
