That’s Right Nate

Sometimes, I simply do not get Human Events.   Last year, they named Sarah Palin as their Conservative of the Year and I got it.  She introduced a whole new generation of voters to the GOP and had a way of putting complex policy into simple language that might not have made it understandable, but at least made it homey sounding.  She also helped lead a historic Presidential campaign with John McCain.   I started the most influential blog on the right, but conservative circles are filled with influential blogs.

This year however, should have been my year.   Friends told me I was a shoe in.  Instead, the award went to Dick Cheney.   Now, I am a big fan of Dick Cheney.  Don’t get me wrong here.  However, this year let’s look at our accomplishments.

Dick Cheney
Criticized the President of the United States on a near weekly basis.

Now don’t get me wrong, that’s great.  We need to keep the heat on the Obama administration.  In fact, Human Events says, “The irrefutable answer is that what Cheney is saying, primarily on foreign policy, defense and anti-terrorism, makes sense to more and more American citizens growing increasingly worried by the Obama Administration’s insouciance when U.S. national interests are threatened, both at home and abroad.”

That’s great.   Now, let’s look at what I accomplished this year:

Nate Peele

• Criticized the President of the United States on a near daily basis
• Broke the story of liberal bias on PBS kids show Boobah.
• Took a courageous stand demanding that President Obama not kill Sarah Palin’s family
• Created a grassroots campaign to shop white owned businesses.
• Started the Nate Peele Scholarship Foundation
• Established Saint Jing-Tao-Wow Day on March 31 with Lou Dobbs.
• Exposed Obama’s plan to replace English was Esperanto.
• Created a GOP rap video Republican Delight at the urging of Michael Steele
• Created the salute to the GOP congress that unlike Eric Cantor’s Aerosmith didn’t ban
• Broke the story of Obama being sworn in on the Koran
• Led successful boycott of Department of Homeland Security.

Now, I don’t want this to sound like sour grapes.  I’m not posting this to attack Dick Cheney or to say that I should be Conservative of the Year, but I think when you compare our accomplishments during just 2009, I come out significantly ahead. I believe the reason that I lost is that John Bolton is intimidated by my mustache.
