Top Ten Funniest Political Moments Of 2006, courtesy of Extreme Mortman:


Try to name the funniest moments in politics this year, and you'll immediately think of violent assaults with deadly, hilarious weapons. Yes, this was the year that politics met broad physical humor. And crime. Lots and lots of crime. Face it: Crime pays -- with huge belly laughs.


Here then the list of the top ten funniest political moments of 2006 -- a year experts will surely call the funniest ever for politics. Warning -- don't read further without first donning your body armor.


1) The year opens with a bang. The opening of lawyer hunting season is ceremoniously marked when Dick Cheney shoots Harry Whittington.


2) Cynthia McKinney hurls a cell phone at a Capitol Police officer. The cell phone is swiftly wrestled to the floor and detained for questioning.


3) Jack Abramoff wears black hat, black coat to court. The disguise doesn't help. Everyone notices him except for a traveling band of Chasidim.


4) Court documents show Rep. William Jefferson kept $90,000 in bribe money in his freezer. Federal investigators still poring over boxes and boxes of frozen pizzas.


Read the whole list at the link above, including the pictures - which are worth the click on their own. Hat-tip to Instapundit for pointing to this post.
