All Hail Obama

WASHINGTON: It’s official. Congratulations to Barack Hussein Obama, sole recipient of the 2009 Prevaricator of the Year™. There were some very tough competitors. Recently Janet Napolitano threw her hat in the ring in her famous appearance on CNN, “The System Worked.” Who can forget Mary Landrieu’s classic, “I Can’t Be Bought“? Harry Reid, in his last term as Senator, boldly staked his claim as he smeared the entire Republican party when he blamed them for slavery and civil rights obstruction. Our favorite was the nomination of the entire Democratic caucuses of the House and the Senate. Had we been able to award a joint recipient that nomination may have held sway.

Unlike the Nobel commission who depend on the whims of a politically charged committee, we here at the NIP use a state-of-the-art super computer with a sophisticated, proprietary algorithm to make an unbiased decision.

Since the NIP is publicly funded (thanks to the stimulus package), we were very reluctant to criticize our Commander-in-Chief, as loyal readers well know. However, once we put his name into consideration the computer blew the others out of contention.

It’s been a big year for Obama, winning the Nobel Peace Prize and now the 2009 Prevaricator of the Year™, an award he actually deserves. We offer him our  sincere congratulations.

We won’t attempt to elaborate on Obama’s qualifications, we’ll let him explain it in his own words:
