Human Events Man of the Year Rep. James Sensenbrenner

Share article:

Guest Blogged by Alan Breslauer

Former House Judiciary Chairman Representative James Sensenbrenner (R-WI) was an inspired choice for Human Events Man of the Year. Considering the “news” source champions “above all, a staunch, unwavering defense of American freedom,” who better to receive its top honor than the Congressman who introduced the USA PATRIOT Act and authored the Real ID Act. This video (4:30), which includes parts of a lovely introduction by Human Events Assistant Editor Amanda Carpenter, is whittled down from Sensenbrenner’s twenty minute speech Friday at CPAC. Be sure to stick around to hear Sensenbrenner’s final recommendation per global warming which, in addition to making much of the speech superfluous, boggles the mind. Oh, and there is plenty of good material throughout including a United States Representative boasting about standing his ground to cries of injustice.

ADDITIONAL THOUGHT FROM BRAD: While enjoying the celebration of “American freedoms” personified by Sensenbrenner, perhaps a visit of this old BRAD BLOG chestnut will be amusing and/or enlightening.

    More like fascist of the year, since “american freedom” to these neoCon sickos is unrestrained damage and destruction to American concepts of freedom and liberty.

    No sense Sensenbrenner is they type who will send 363 tons of crisp $100 dollar bills to Baghdad but won’t spend enough at Walter Reed Hospital to get rid of the rats, mold, and stench the wounded have to live in.

    You are doin a heckuva job neoCons …

    Who let the sloths out, who, who, who, who.

    This guy is a menace to all that is good, and he’s proud of it. Destruction of worldly beauty is his forte. Put him in a prison cell by himself so there won’t be anything FOR him to destroy!

    Here comes the sun, do, do ,do ,do
    here comes the sun, and I say, It’s alright…

    Man, what a scumbag. I don’t know if in America today I can say that. I have noticed the bills he has passed and others he has tried to get passed. I cannot think of a more unAmerican person. He is the typical neo-con, well worse. He cares nothing of what this this county stands for. What were the voters thinking of when they put this vile subhuman in office, or was the vote stolen. Ask yourself is this the face of Wisconsin? This is who you support, you should be ashamed of yousevles.
