Welcome to the DUzy Awards, honoring saucy swipes, sardonic scorn and stunning send-ups from this week on DU. Congratulations to this week's winners!
The shiny, happy DUzies will be announced every Friday, if I get around to it. Previous awards can be found in my journal.
Note to Mods: Skinner has authorized the DUzy Awards to be posted in GD. Special thanks to merh, bridgit, twenty4blackbirds, AllyCat, Buzz Clik, SeattleGirl, CaliforniaPeggy, eleny, wryter2000, SallyMander, krispos42, rocknation, stellanoir, chimpsrsmarter, unhappycamper, djmaddox1 and NanceGreggs for their invaluable assistance. Had to leave out a lot to finish the awards this week, but thanks to everyone for your suggestions.
Deepest sympathies to Mrs. Grumpy on her loss. This should have appeared last week:On a thread by rumpel: VOTER FRAUD & JUSTICE FIRINGS PROBES REVEAL DISAPPEARING PRESSURE GROUP, THE ACVR"The American Center for Voting Rights (ACVR) was supposed to be a non-partisan NGO pushing for government action to combat what it alleged was a widespread problem with ballot fraud across the United States. When investigations revealed it was founded and operated by Republican campaign operatives, and that its allegations were largely fabricated, the organization literally disappeared from public view. And now it is increasingly difficult to find documents it published or links to information about its founders online...
The group's founder, Mark Hearne —also known as 'Thor'—, or someone close to him, has apparently been busy erasing references to the group from sites that bear his name, or vice-versa..."

Political Videos, August 25, 2007: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=385x49574 OP by Philosoraptor: What snappy slogans will be used to extend the war 6 more mnths.?The whole war has been created and maintained with the simple use of clever slogans. They fit well on bumper stickers and headlines. Stay the course is a good one, that is still in use, even yesterday I saw it in a bushwar headline.
We must fight them over there bla bla is another fine and effective slogan.
We must continue the fight so that the fallen did not die in vain is an extra snappy one.
Lately its been, 'we are waiting on General Betrayus's report in September', each six month war cycle continuation is fueled by snappy slogans written by dick and his speech writers.
On September eleventh the good general will deliver his super hyped report, but he's wasting everyone's time, we all know what it says already, then the 'surge' will be re-named, repackaged, and given a few new snappy slogans to accompany it.
"Stability by Spring"? "Surge Two, the Return"? "Surge Hard, with a vengeance"?
"The March toward March"? "Springtime for bush and Victory"? "Iran has weapons of mass destruction, an army of terrorists, and is developing nuclear weapons"?
I just can't WAIT for the next snappy slogans!

The pres is going to Sydney in style.....sickening"When President George Bush takes off from the White House for the short trip to Andrews Air Force Base in Marine One, not one but three identical helicopters rise into the sky, in an airborne pea-and-thimble trick.
No one knows which helicopter is the President's. It is the same with the motorcades that regularly bring Washington's traffic to a standstill. The smoked windows of the dozen official cars and huge Chevrolet Suburbans that race through the streets with sirens and horns blaring, with a vanguard of motorcycle police frantically waving people out of the way and blocking intersections, make it impossible to know just who is where.

A tale of a fateful war
That started from Republicans
and PNAC’s manical core.
G Dub was a naive cowboy kid,
Dick Cheney dumb and sure.
The soldiers went to war that day
For a three month tour, a three month tour.
Then the war started getting rough,
Another plan was tossed,
Because of the idiotic fearless few
The war has been lost, the war has been lost.
The war set ground on the shore of Iraqi desert sands
With GW
And Cheney too,
Rummy boy and Condi Rice,
Negroponte
Wolfowitz and Patraeus,
There on Iraqi soil.
So this is the tale of the US troops
They're there for a long, long time,
They'll have to make the best of things,
It's an uphill climb.
Then G Dub and Cheney too,
Will do their very best,
To make the others scared as hell,
From the quagmire that is their mess.
No peace, more plights, more bombing sites,
Not a real victory,
It’s a poorly planned war,
A quagmire it’s come to be.
So join us here each year my friends,
You're sure to get a sore,
Because of seven morons,
And their failed Iraqi war.
And see below for a Special Visual Achievement award from this thread.

Larry Craig (R-Idaho) was arrested in June at a Minnesota airport by a plainclothes police officer investigating lewd conduct complaints in a men’s public restroom, according to an arrest report obtained by Roll Call Monday afternoon.
Craig’s arrest occurred just after noon on June 11 at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. On Aug. 8, he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor disorderly conduct in the Hennepin County District Court. He paid more than $500 in fines and fees, and a 10-day jail sentence was stayed. He also was given one year of probation with the court that began on Aug. 8.
A spokesman for Craig described the incident as a 'he said/he said misunderstanding'..."

Problem with alcohol/drugs and entering rehab

Have confessed to my wife/family/god, and they have forgiven
What is it with these people? If I did these things and was caught, there'd be a vacuum behind me as my wife kicked me out the door. Forgiveness? Give me a break!
A quick question for all the male DUers out there who have used public restrooms in airports. How many times have you done anything in a men's room that has been - or, hell, can be - misconstrued as lewd behavior. How complicated is it for these republicans to use a friggin' men's room. Enter men's room. Unzip zipper. Stare at wall in front of you. Pee. Zip up zipper. Wash hands. Leave. Where's the room for misunderstanding? What part of this has them confused? And remember, people elected these idiots. Maybe that should be a debate question. How do you use a men's room? How can we trust you with foreign policy if you somehow are unable to use a men's room? What have we become??

Petraeus To Mentally Project Iraq Report Via White HouseIn a stunning development, the White House has announced that Gen.

"We'd love to make Gen.
