Media Reseach Center honors Rush Limbaugh with Award for Media Excellence.

http://www.mrc.org/notablequotables/dishonor/07/welcome.asp

Others present and honored were:

Cal Thomas, Neal Boortz, Herman Cain, Mary Matalin, Michael Steele, G. Gordon Liddy, Pat Sajak, Ward Connerly and "Osama bin Laden" highlighted the presentations and acceptances of the MRC�s "2007 DisHonors Awards: Roasting the Most Outrageously Biased Liberal Reporters of 2006" -- the showcase of the MRC's 20th Anniversary Gala -- presented on Thursday night, March 29, before an audience of more than 1,000 packed into the Independence Ballroom of the Grand Hyatt hotel in Washington, D.C.

And more celebrities...at the Dishonor awards which are given to the most outrageous "liberals".

DisHonors Awards winners were selected by a distinguished panel of 13 leading media observers, including Limbaugh, Tony Blankley, Ann Coulter, Steve Forbes, Mark Levin, Robert Novak, Walter E. Williams and Thomas S. Winter, who served as judges.

Much more, including the types of awards and the categories. Mary Matalin, wife of James Carville, announced the Puppy Love awards.

The I Hate America award was presented by Neal Boortz.

In place of the journalist who won each award, a conservative accepted it in jest. Those standing in for the winners: Former Maryland Lieutenant Governor Michael Steele, radio talk show host G. Gordon Liddy, game show host Pat Sajak and Ward Connerly, President of the American Civil Rights Institute. Plus, "Osama bin Laden" accepted an award via video from a cave in Pakistan.

I bet that Osama thing really brought down the house. :wow:

3. Hmm...sounds like they got the name of the show wrong!

MRC Hatefest Invitational. Only proven assholes were invited. Inhuman fleshpods in a group hate event. Circle-jerking for hours and then letting their franchise player, OBL, get in the last yuk yuk.

Did Rove get a honorary award for 'biggest fucking over of Americans'? I had money on Cheney.

A diddler.

A racist Alzheimers patient on LSD.

Perfect GOP material.

6. Amazing how much the OxyMoron looks like KKKarl, isn't it?

Come to think of it, have you ever seen the two of them in the same place at the same time? :tinfoilhat:
