Remember to cast your Robert Fisk Award ballot

Charles Johnson at Little Green Footballs played a leading role in exposing CBS's fraudulent 60 Minute Texas Air National Guard story. Thank you, Charles.

Charles now invites us to visit LGF and cast a vote in the Robert Fisk Award for Idiotarian of the Year competition.

Here are the 20 nominees:

Cindy Sheehan
Harry Reid
Mary Mapes
George Clooney
Sean Penn
Howard Dean
Ward Churchill
Dan Rather
Chris Matthews
Nancy Pelosi
Noam Chomsky
Kofi Annan
Ramsey Clark
Dick Durbin
Hugo Chavez
New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin
Rep. Jack Murtha
George Galloway
Maurice Hinchey
Kanye West
Cynthia McKinney

All 20 are deserving but if you think there's someone or some organization more deserving than those twenty, you're free to make your own nomination.

Michelle Malkin just did. Here's her nomination:

For its reckless endangerment of national security, unapologetic distortion of our troops' commitment to the mission in Iraq, trashing of 9/11 families who refused to capitulate to political correctness at Ground Zero, routine insipidity and unaccountability, laughable hypocrisy, protectionism for Democrats and liberal pet projects, dishonest Bush-bashing, anti-war pandering, cluelessness by the barrel, narcissism, and skyscraping editorial arrogance and snobbery, I nominate...

THE NEW YORK TIMES
It will be no surprise to JinC readers that the Times will get my vote.

I'll be posting more soon about why I think the Times deserves the Fisk Award.

Meanwhile, don't forget to vote.
