Asshole Fuckface Roundup

It's 7-7-07. You know what that means! It's time for another Asshole Fuckface Roundup! There are an enormous amount of assholes in the world but only a few make the cut and land up on the FearTheReaper Asshole Fuckface Roundup. Here are this week's winners:
First up, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. Arnold has been getting quite a bit of press lately for taking the lead on environmental issues.
Now Schwarzenegger, a Republican, wants to use his star power to turn global warming into an issue in the 2008 presidential election. "There is a whole new movement because of the change of people sent to Washington," Schwarzenegger said in an interview this week, referring to the Democratic Party's impending takeover of Congress. "We want to put the spotlight on this issue in America. It has to become a debate in the presidential election. It has to become an issue."
Yay! Hes an environmentalist! No, wait, thats not right. What would you call him? Uh...oh, yeah, hes a fucking liar. Arnold recently fired the executive officer of the California Air Resources Board for not being tough enough. The executive officer claimed he was fired for pushing to implement more aggressive action to curb global warming than the administration supports.
Then another board member quit. She also claimed the "green governor" was pressing the board to go easy on businesses. The board is supposed to be an independent of the governors office.
Witherspoon said she and her staff were routinely pressured by the administration to soften crackdowns on heavy diesel construction equipment and other machinery after industry officials complained.
In an attempt to stop the bleeding, Arnold has appointed a staunch environmentalist to run the board, but the damage has already been done.
"You can have the best person at the helm of the board, but if the administration is trying to micromanage it on a day-to-day basis, it won't make a difference who is in charge over there," said Assembly Speaker Fabian Nuñez (D-Los Angeles). "It will lose credibility and become politicized."
Sounds like Arnold has learned a lot from our current president. Keep destroying everything that is good in our government, boys. And, to add a little icing on the cake, Arnold has been taking lavish trips that are paid for by a "nonprofit group."
Arnold Schwarzenegger, a millionaire many times over, bills much of his overseas travel to an obscure nonprofit group that can qualify its secret donors for full tax deductions, just as if they were giving to skid row shelters or the United Way.
Isnt that awesome? If anyone needs to be taken care of due to a lack of funds, its Arnold. Just last week he went to Austria, England and France. He gets to fly on plush private jets and stay in hotel suites that cost thousands of dollars a night. And its all paid for by charities!
By giving to the foundation, donors avoid having their identities made public, because charities are not governed by the disclosure rules that apply to campaign contributions. And they can donate unlimited amounts to the nonprofit, which is not subject to contribution ceilings the way campaign accounts are.
Didnt take Arnold long to become a corrupt Asshole Fuckface, but then again, I didnt expect much from the star of Twins. (I do expect a lot from Danny Devito, however.)
It wouldnt be an Asshole Fuckface Roundup without a ridiculous lawsuit. Meet Susan McBride. Shes an employee who has been nearly crippled by pretty scents.
An employee in the Detroit planning department who claims she is severely sensitive to perfumes and other cosmetics has sued the city, saying a co-worker's strong fragrance prohibits her from working.
Not since the great pants lawsuit of 2007 has there been a more idiotic use of the judicial system. I cant wait until someone sues a co-worker for showing him or her blueberries. It will happen. A year ago a co-worker started working in the office and nearly killed McBride.
"This employee not only wore a strong scent, but also plugged in a scented room deodorizer," the lawsuit states. "Ms. McBride was overcome by the smell almost instantly, causing her to go home sick."
The co-worker later agreed to stop using the room deodorizer, but kept using perfume, the lawsuit states.
McBride claims the work environment is in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act. She is demanding perfumes and other smells be banned at work. Oh, and she wants a cash settlement. The poor woman has been through hell, smelling perfumes and room deodorizers. She is basically a cripple now, from all the smelling and whatnot. She deserves a few million at least. Or, alternatively, someone could cram a deodorizer up her arse.
What would an Asshole Fuckface round up be without a fat, white, corrupt Republican?
Meet Representative Ken Calvert of California. Hes a class act. In 2001, a Riverside park district asked to buy four acres of land, with the hope of turning it into a park. The land could have been the only park in a lower-income, mainly Hispanic neighborhood. Unfortunately for the poor people, Calvert had his eye on the land, too. He snatched it up in what appears to be an illegal transaction.
A California city government agency broke the law when it sold a four-acre parcel of land to a group of investors which included Rep. Ken Calvert, R-Calif., an investigative grand jury has concluded. Calvert and his partners planned to build a mini-storage facility on the property.
Just doing the work of the people. Who needs a fucking park? Kids love mini-storage facilities!
The grand jury concluded that the city agency did not follow the law when it sold the property to Calvert. The agency was required by law to offer the land to other government entities before it was sold to private investors. The park district will now go to court to get the land. It must have just been a coincidence that the land was sold to Calvert and his fellow investors.
Just as it must have been a coincidence in 2005 when Calvert bought four-acres of land that quickly doubled in price. It also must have been a coincidence that he used his influence to get funding for a nearby freeway interchange. But hes got a great excuse.
"They haven't passed a law against investing yet," Calvert told the paper.
Ha ha! Good one! I hope you crammed a cigar in your mouth after you said that and then flipped a coin to a street urchin, you asshole fuckface.
Speaking of Asshole Fuckfaces, it didnt take long for the Scooter Libby supporters to climb out from under their rocks.
They have a great defense for Bushs total disrespect for the rule of law. It is really simple, they just scream, Clinton, Clinton, Clinton, until they pass out. The only problem is they end up looking like hypocritical assholes. It is rare they get called on it, but when they do it is a beautiful sight.
I am no fan of Clinton, but there is a pretty profound difference between the two acts. Clinton lied under oath because he didnt want to talk about getting blowjobs from a woman. He could not be convicted of perjury because the federal statute requires that the lie be about something material to the case. The judge in Clintons case ruled his statements were not material to the case and excluded all evidence about Lewinsky from the suit. Therefore, Clinton was never tried or convicted of perjury.
Libby, on the other hand, was convicted of four counts of perjury, obstruction of justice and making false statements. Libby did all that while working for the administration and probably protecting Cheney. The prosecutor said, there is a dark cloud over the Vice President. BIG FUCKING DIFFERENCE.
The time when convicted criminals come forth to broker a deal and give up their criminal friends is right before they go to prison. Which means Bush undermined one of the prosecutors best tools to get the truth. It seems Bush has obstructed justice, by commuting the sentence of Libby's obstruction of justice conviction in an attempt to avoid holding the Administration accountable for its actions. You are an idiot if you equate this action to anything Clinton did.
But I shouldnt even be getting into the argument of what Clinton did. Why? Because blaming Clinton for something does not excuse Bush for what is clearly abuse of his power. If we want to live under those rules, then I submit that what John Wayne Gacy did was totally cool because Jeffrey Dahmer did the same thing. Fucking morons.
Last but not least, the Republican Party.
Yesterday, the Republican Party unveiled their South Dakota candidate to run against Democrat Tim Johnson for the US Senate. Meet state representative Joel D. Dykstra. He is a complete religious nut job, but that is what the Republicans love these days. Dyksta received a degree in business from Oral Roberts University in 1980. He then had a delightful 19-year career in the oil and gas exploration industry. He is like a Republican wet dream.
But Dykstra has never had a greater moment than on April 20, 2006 during an abortion debate, when he said this:
"I think 'rape and incest' is a buzzword. It's a bit of a throwaway line and not everybody who says that really understands what that means. How are you going to define that?
I dont know, they really are such vague buzzwords. Its like murder. What the fuck does that even mean?
Congrats to this weeks Asshole Fuckface winners! You each get a free FearTheReaper T-shirt!
