Americans with Mathematical Disabilities Award (for Calling Hikes a Cut)
“House Republicans denied any impropriety when they approved federal budget reductions of $17 billion and outlined $190 billion more, slashing programs that largely benefit women, children, and the poor, to pay for that ‘pouting sex kitten’ mistress of their dreams – tax cuts.”
– U.S. News & World Report Senior Writer Gerald Parshall, March 27 story.
Runners-up:
“When NBC Nightly News continues: in Washington, if they cut food stamps, who doesn’t eat?”
– Tom Brokaw, March 22.
“The
Democrats, the big mistake they’ve made is they ought to have
advertisements about deterioration of quality, they ought to show an
elderly person in a hospital bed, ringing for a nurse who doesn’t show
up. That’s where the cutbacks are going to be.”
– Newsweek’s Eleanor
Clift, September 16 McLaughlin Group.
“March madness has begun on
Capitol Hill, and almost as predictable as a B horror film, the
slashing has begun. House Republicans have made a small down payment on
their plan to make massive budget cuts.”
– CNN anchor Judy Woodruff on
Inside Politics, March 16.
