As the year draws to an end…..it is time for the announcement of Info Ink’s  annual Anal-Ocity award, the “Assie”,………I would like to thank all those who participated in determining the winner……and now with all that behind us….

First runner up was…….#5………

Newt Gingrich (again)–“I am convinced that if we do not decisively win the struggle over the nature of America, by the time they’re my age they will be in a secular atheist country, potentially one dominated by radical Islamists and with no understanding of what it once meant to be an American.”

In 2nd place……….#3………..

3–Rep.  Paul Broun of Georgia–“In fact, Franklin Delano Roosevelt sent his advisors, his close friends, his cabinet people to go visit with Stalin in communist Russia to study what he was doing, what Stalin was doing there so that FDR could replicate it here in the United States.”

And now……(may I have a drum roll please)……..the winner of the 2011 “Assie” Award is………(pause here for effect)………#1……our favorite whack-a-doodle…….Newt…..

”You have a very poor neighborhood. You have students that are required to go to school. They have no money, no habit of work,” Gingrich said. “What if you paid them in the afternoon to work? What if they became assistant janitors, and their job was to mop the floor and clean the bathroom?”

Thank you one and all for your participation and Mr. Newt Gingrich will be getting an email from Info Ink informing him of his prestigious win….

Thanx again, my friends……
