The Tie: Navy, silver and white stripes

Number 5: Tonight's update on Public Option in the Health Care Debate: Rep. Stenny Hoyer (R) is in wait-and-see mode while Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV) will call for majority rule, and Good Oldboysandgirls Party chairman Michael Steele Sieve challenged President Obama to pass the bill. Clarence Paige, your newspaper is selling the Cubs, now how do you feel about today's news? And Melissa Harris-Lacewell sells us on the poll numbers showing President Obama losing support on everything in this.

Number 4: Adolph spent 1/3 of that Gestapo on vacation, and an AstroTurf group is mocking Obama's upcoming Cape Cod break. Adolph was on vacation August 6, 2001 when the memo about a possible attack on the World Trade Center and The Pentagon were given to him. Yes, he ignored it. More below.

Best Persons: 3 - Inanity continues the fraud of Spenser Baccus (D-MO) for the incorrect on Social Security. 2 - Challiss McAffee has a big list of charges when lying on a gun-happy GOP guy. 1 - Michele Bachman (R-MN DWARF PLANET PLUTO) is now pro-choice on her body.

Musical Segue: I could not get it all.

Number 3: Tom Ridge's story about raising the threat level in the Adolph XLIII Gestapo by Herrs John Ashcroft and Donald Rumsfeld the night before the election are recounted, and in separate statements released by those two, was told by Ashcroft to start using emergency duct tape, and Rummy quoted Osama bin-Laden. Ridge disagrees. The updated Nexus of Politics and Terror follows.

Number 2: Prof. Jonathan Turley is here to review what the story is all about.

Number 1 (Worst Person in the World)

Bronze - Andrew Malcom was mad about The Los Angeles Times misplacing MSNBC's airing times of Countdown, and has gone to old GOP stalking points.

Silver - Tom DeLay continues to tap dance as a victim of a town hall meeting...while he was in Washington.

Gold - Betsy McCoy, the paid medical schill resigned of Cantel Medical. In reality, they released her upon agreeing to terms. They wished her well in her future endeavors. /WWE'd.

And my future endeavors will entail taking the weekend off. See you Monday.
