Who is today's A-hole of the Day -- COBURN (or INHOFE) or the usual LIMBOsevic

Who is today’s biggest a-hole, Senator Tom COBURN (or INHOFE) of Oklahoma, who makes Herbert HOOVER look like Francis of Assisi, or is it the usual LIMBAUGH (always a candidate for a-hole)? COBURN SAYS if the nation wants to use money for aid to Oklahoma with tornado relief, fine, but if offsetting budget cuts are not made, Oklahoma can do without aid.

And LIMBOsevic got off the IRS topic for a bit of A-mur-ica wistfulness, saying that the SOCIAL MEDIA are just ruining ‘murca’s yooths, that all morals and decency are down the toilet, that what he wants is “rugged individualism, taking care of our own needs, leading to Norman ROCKWELL’s ‘murca.” However, he said he doesn’t mean to say he wants to shut down Social Media or to return to 1950s Donna REED household, no no. After all, when were Viagra and oxycontin invented and when were Caribbean islands identified as destinations for non-1950s sex?! However, he said he doesn’t want the kids hanging around his picket fences indefinitely, wants them gone at some point to make their own mistakes, hopefully with the “good foundation” they received from him and his peers, so that he and his fellow paragons, presumably, can lead his own lives with the oxy/viagra/islands without worrying.
