And the winner is ...

The Maryland Tournament of Champions
Clerk's aide blamed for records error




So, Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley was playing in a golf tournament and shot a stunning 15 under par round to win the $1.3 billion prize!   But wait!  O'Malley forgot to sign his score card, resulting in his disqualification and loss of the money.  How galling.  How utter galling to come so close only to lose on a technicality.  But golf is a gentleman's game, and relies on the honesty and integrity of participants, so the Governor admitted that he had just learned a very expensive lesson, and congratulated the runner-up, and new champion Irwin R. Kramer

Like hell he did. 

Instead, O'Malley had his caddy Mike Miller Jr. swear that he had mistakenly given O'Malley a pen containing invisible ink, and the Governor  had indeed complied with the rules.  Miller said he personally handed the signed score card to tournament secretary Mary Monahan who recorded it, and even made a Xerox copy before the ink disappeared.  Monahan produced an unreadable Xerox copy of that Xerox copy, but PGA officials suspected it was a fabrication and asked her to see them in the office.   Ms. Monahan took it on the lam, hiding in Mexico until things blew over.

DAWGHowever, runner-up Kramer, who stood to win that $1.3 billion prize,  hired famous bounty hunter Dawg to track her down, which he eventually did.  Under interrogation Monahan finally explained everything.

 Her  aide, Colleen A. Cassidy was responsible.
 "Responsible for what?"  the PGA demanded.
 "For everything," Monahan answered. 
"Oh, why didn't you say so, in the beginning," said the PGA, "that's  a common error in 'clerk world,' and awarded Gov. O'Malley his money.

Unfrickin believable. What the hell is "clerk's world"? I guess for democrats there are all sorts of diffferent "worlds" -- conservative world, redneck world, Jesus world, gun-totin' world, too-stupid-to-do-anything-but-enlist world, etc.

These people must be stopped. It's almost as if aliens arrived and took over the bodies of every democrat in office.

The Demos have nothing to worry about , NJ has terminated the death penalty. The Demos can now get long term vacations at the taxpayers expense, which isn't any different from the way things are now!

So much for the life sentence of Sara Jane Moore. I guess to a democrat that means 32 years.
