Well it’s time for my new weekly segment, the Snark Attack Of The Week Contest. Before starting this weeks big contest, I want to send out Hugs & Kisses to the millions of bloggers who voted for their favorite Snark Attack, even if it was their own.
And now … drum roll please … the winner of the first ever MOTUS Snark Attack Of The Week Contest and recipient of this weeks “Golden FLOTUS” is:
Mrs. P “… solar panel heating.”
Congratulations Mrs. P. You may proudly display your “Golden FLOTUS” on your mantle, dashboard, website or anywhere else you choose. And congratulations to all of my finalists; you are all winners in the progressive world of “contests.” But here, in the real world, the final count shows Mrs. P kicked your tuchus.
Some of you may have gotten more votes if all blog readers were equipped with the latest text translation apps like me & TOTUS, or a household 5 year old to interpret : bettyann writes “… My daughter, a fashion legend in her own mind, reads this blog. Now I know what OMG OMG OMG means…”
But remember, there will be a chance to win every week (if by every week you mean when I feel like it) and there may even be fabulous prizes, if we get a big new stimulus package. So, let the games begin (and once again, let me remind you, Chicago rules apply!) :

- chiron: "He Put In His Thumb, and Pulled Out a Plum…":
....I must say, the only thing with any balls in that picture is the Christmas tree. - Moright: "They’re Both Batt-y":
Remember the Jimmy Carter years, folks? The sweaters? The gas lines? The failed presidency? The Snuggie may become the emblem of this Zero presidency. - Cinderella: "They’re Both Batt-y":
… Do you suppose we'll see him appearing at Williams Sonoma next week to hawk the newest in non stick cookware? How about a stop at Saks to pass out samples of the latest miracle skin cream?
Does this man have nothing better to do with his time? - AnnieCarmel: "Lady M’s Holiday Gift Return Policy":
Notice that Grandma comes after the dog...just wondering when she'll send Grandma out to the local parks to pick up dog poop as she suggested during the campaign for all seniors to make themselves "useful". Maybe Grandma can escape the Park detail...probably enough poop to pick up in Big White alone. - bettyann: "Warming Hearts and Minds In Copenhagen":
SELL MY HARLEY!!? It may be cold in Copenhagen, but hell has not yet frozen over. The house goes back to the bank first!
Besides, without a Harley, how is a girl supposed to cope with hot flashes?
Vote early, vote often!

MOTUS, this is our moment. This is our time. Our time to turn the page on Michelle Obama's failed outfits of the past. Our time to bring new energy and new snark to the very real wardrobe challenges we face. Our time to offer a new standard of comedy for the country we love.
ReplyDeleteThe journey will be difficult. The road will be long. I face this challenge with profound humility, and knowledge of my own limitations. But I also face it with limitless faith in the capacity of the rest of your readers. Because if we are willing to work for it, and fight for it, and believe in it, then I am absolutely certain that generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal; this was the moment when we ended a war and secured our nation and restored our image as the last, best-dressed country on earth. This was the moment—this was the time—when we came together to make fun of this First Lady so that Michelle's Mirror's comments section may always reflect our very best selves and our highest ideals. Thank you MOTUS, super secret committee and most all, thank you voters. Especially the dead in Cook County who hadn't turned out to vote since Jackie Kennedy's day. God bless you, and may God bless Michelle's Mirror.
Mrs. P
I gave myself a B+
ReplyDeleteKeep trying, 'Golden Centaur' -
ReplyDeleteMaybe next time you'll get an A-.....
Mrs. P, I must say, that is the most gracious acceptance speech I have ever read. MOTUS has proven her wisdom beyond doubt, in choosing and then awarding you for that magnificent snark. Snark on!
ReplyDeleteMrs. P
ReplyDeleteKudo's on winning this week's snark contest. And may I say that your robust acceptance speech - in light of your unprecedented win - was indicative of the truly extraordinary competition.
Imagine how many additional rewards you might create or save if you can keep the dearly departed from Cook County in your camp.
Thanks for visiting, and adhering to the rules of the contest. Our side needs more like you.

You're being far too hard on yourself.You simply need to form a coalition with thugs - dead or alive - and you, too, can be a winner of historic proportion.
Breeze,
I concur.
bettyann,
While I would like to take credit for naming the winner, I would remind everyone that the finalists are selected by a super-secret team of snark specialists, and the winner determined by the millions of voters who visited and voted for Mrs. P, or against someone else.
Also, all contests are conducted in the completely transparent methods used elsewhere in the Obama administration.
Good laughing!! My bad however -current potus makes Jimmy C look much improved.
ReplyDeleteMOTUS. Right. "wink" ;) Or should I have said left? It's a whole, new, brave world anymore! We must keep these things in mind. Just happy to be one of the millions. Upon millions. One smiling brick after another. Lovely, lovely snarkage. All of it! Carry on.
ReplyDeleteMOTUS, when you have a chance, check my blog. I hope you approve.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
Mrs. P
Moright,
ReplyDeleteAt least Jimmy didn't become a card carrying commie until after he left office.
bettyann,
We need all the bricks we can lift.
Mrs.P
Exceptional! Deserves a separate post which I will work on post haste.
