Just when you thought this guy couldn't get any more irritating, he
comes up with a scheme that is so desperately annoying it makes being
stabbed repeatedly in the buttocks seem like relaxing in a meadow on a
pleasant summer's day.
Here's the deal:
Tom Delay has been sending recorded phone messages to people telling
them that they've won a "national leadership award" and they should
return his call ASAP.
When the unsuspecting "award recipient" calls back - gotcha!
A telemarketer comes on the line and hits you up for cash.
Get it?
If you give $300 or $500, you win the "national leadership award!"
According to MSNBC, "Past awardees include a convicted sex offender
and a maker of drug paraphernalia," although apparently, "both awards
were later rescinded."
Why, did their checks bounce?
But seriously - thanks again, Tom.
Every time we think you've hit rock bottom you manage to surprise us.
