Rep. Ken Calvert (CA): Today’s “Bullshit” Award Winner

Congratulations to….

Rep. Ken Calvert (CA)

Today’s “Bullshit”Award Winner 

Kenny is a right wing screwball from the Inland Empire and Southern Orange County area of California.

After South Carolina voted to remove the Confederate Flag from the statehouse grounds, Kenny decided it was time for him to toss a little red meat to his fellow bigots and come to the air of the flag.

On July 9, 2010, Kenny added an amendment to a bill to fund the Department of the Interior that would protect the Confederate Flag in national cemeteries. Kenny’s bigoted move resulted in stalling the funding bill.

When Kenny’s bigoted amendment drew jeers from many members of Congress, he responded by saying he offered the amendment because leaders brought it to him at the “request of some southern Members of the Republican Caucus” (fellow bigots).

Kenny fails to name the “leadership” member or members of Congress that proposed the bigoted amendment. Moreover, as the chairman of the House Appropriation subcommittee with jurisdiction over the Interior Department, Kenny could have told the “leadership” to kiss his significant ass when they proposed this amendment.

There’s no doubt that Kenny is just as big a bigot as the southern members of the House he claims he was fronting for.

Congrats Kenny; keep up the good work! We should let everyone know of your amazing record as one of Americas Least Appreciated “Bullshitters”; you are far too humble.
