		<description>Jerry Abramson--for the Cordish corruption, the Housing fiasco, and the corruption/extortion under color of law he is winking at over at LMAS. He is currently trying to whitewash the mess his Animal Control Director is making--which quite possibly includes all kinds of embezzlement (when one doesn&#039;t keep records of financial dealings, it&#039;s a little hard to tell). There are hundreds of thousands of dollars unaccounted for in the dealings between AAA and LMAS--which Jerry&#039;s spinners will try to say bring money in to the city and therefore do not require accountability. Hold on there Jer--that is city property that is being sold, and the city covers all expenses for that property, and then gets little to none of the sale price? That&#039;s bringing money in? And what about all the animals that are being brought in from surrounding counties, vetted at LMAS, and sold at AAA--with NONE of the sale price then returning to LMAS because the animals didn&#039;t originate there? Um, I think city resources are being used here, and I think accountability is required. But we wouldn&#039;t expect Mayor POO to understand that.</description>

		<description>This is a shoe-in!  The despicable head of Metro Animal Control:  Giles Meloche DVM, MBA, BFD.  It&#039;s a shoe-in because he&#039;s already on Kelly Downard&#039;s radar for an investigation (brewing for months based on dozens of citizen complaints about illegal searches &amp; seizures, overcharging, unwarranted confiscation and/or euthanization of their pets, the list is endless!).  

Adding to this are the multiple complaints of current and former employees who allege everything from financial extortion to sexual harassment (multiple counts) and Meloche&#039;s policies fostering rampant outbreaks of disease in the shelter.  

The disease conditions have also led to many complaints from people who adopted or reclaimed animals which became severely ill (or died).  Makes you wonder how many box tops Meloche needed to send in to get that Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree?

And, while Jerry hired him because of his credentials, the fact that Meloche also boasts an MBA leads to much head-scratching when you learn that he dismally FAILED his 2007 Metro audit (which earned him a 10% pay raise from the Jerrmeister).  However, Downard&#039;s investigation is also going to focus on the results of a current audit which show that not only didn&#039;t Meloche clean up the problems from several years ago, they have gotten worse!  Records are missing, ANIMALS are missing and, apparently, money is missing too.  Add to that Meloche having entered into a partnership agreement with a private company which involves a mutual diddling of the books (not to mention allegations of another type of diddling), and you&#039;re left wondering just how much of a pay raise Jerry will lavish on him this year!

The poster boy for the Dem&#039;s version of Nanny Government, Meloche believes that HE is the one to decide whether or not you should own an animal.  And, in a 2008 deposition where he channeled Jerry Abramson&#039;s &quot;too poor &amp; too black&quot; mindset, Meloche actually declared that poor people should not not allowed to own pets.

Added to that, he has an obsessive reaction to any animal with intact genetalia, the mere thought of which can send him into a warrant-forging, jack-boot invasion of your home to confiscate said animal and forcibly remove its procreative parts.  Given his own penchant for sexual predations, one&#039;s mind is left spinning at the psychological implications of that behavior!

When it comes to poo, Meloche has caused and spread so much of it, it&#039;s only fitting (in so many ways!) that he recive an award for all that he has accomplished.</description>

		<description>I nominate Ed Worley. The category says &quot;investigated or indicted&quot; and I suspect some folks will be looking into that deal he and Madison County Judge Mansuper (you know, Kent Clark) have for the AOC office space lease.</description>

		<description>No contest: Senator Mitchell McConnell. 

It&#039;s 1/8 of the way into Obama&#039;s first term and this nut is still acting like the GOP has a majority in the Senate? Voting against Sotomayor...is he serious? His ignorance of his own irrelevance will bring down his legacy in his last lap around the track. Surely one of his clients, I mean constituents, are embarrassed enough to throw him under the bus?</description>

		<description>Y&#039;all aren&#039;t following Jake&#039;s admonition to &quot;keep it funny.&quot; The obvious answer would be Doug Hawkins for his lame &quot;identity theft&quot; by attempting to impersonate someone with a tan.   :-)

(If I was being serious, I would vote for Madonna Flood for her conflict of interests regarding her convict-husband being on the public dole when he legally could not have been. If Ms. Flood did not abstain in voting for any budget involving giving her husband money, then she should be charged.)</description>
