Below, a synopsis of the winning book.
======================================================
Manny Roberts had always been a friend and a decent man, as Georgette Robinson considered him. She admired him so much that she had always been his most enthusiastic political campaign supporter all the way up to the most important political position in the land-President of the United States.
Then Georgette caught Manny Roberts molesting a child. And it was only weeks until the presidential election.
Sure she told Manny's political party and she thought Manny would immediately be pulled from his candidacy with such knowledge known about the candidate.
Wrong.
It was too late for the party to recruit another candidate, and Georgette was told that no one would believe her anyway.
Desperate to keep a pervert from becoming President, Georgette investigates other strange instances of Manny Roberts involving children. She discovers a nefarious, but well-hidden, path of payoffs and bribery.
With the presidential election weeks away, Georgette stands alone in her quest to get someone's-anyone's-attention about this matter.
Finally, she gets the attention of all of America, but in a very unorthodox manner that landed her in jail.
In the end, Georgette is destined for greatness. Just as soon as she gets out of jail.

Another Saudi Hypocrite Bites the Dust
His father has 42 sons with five wives.
Folks, these are the sons of camels we're dealing with here when it comes to Saudi Arabia.
So King Fahd of Saudi Arabia is technically dead. This time, so the Saudis report, he's going to stay dead.
For the man has died several times not to mention that stroke he had in the late nineties that left him a vegetable. His replacement, Prince Abdullah, has been doing Fahd's job since the stroke.
Some of Fahd's statistics below:
NAME: King Fahd bin Abdul Aziz al-Saud.
BIRTH: 1923, date unknown, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
BACKGROUND: One of 42 sons of King Abdul Aziz, who founded modern Saudi Arabia. Mother, Hassa, was Abdul Aziz's fifth wife.
EDUCATION: Elementary school only, with heavy emphasis on religion.
POLITICAL CAREER: Became Saudi Arabia's first minister of education in 1953, launching nationwide public schools and encouraging girls to attend. Named interior minister in 1962. Appointed crown prince in 1975 when brother, King Khaled, was in poor health. Assumed throne in 1982 upon Khaled's death. Heir is half-brother, Crown Prince Abdullah.
FAMILY: Believed to have had three wives and eight sons. Eldest son, Faisal, died in 1999 of a heart attack.

John Bolton Appointed via Recess Appointment
A handful of senators are desperately fighting to keep John Bolton from a proper up and down vote in the senate. Let's see, Joe Biden, mine own wonderful senator, Christopher Dodd, Kennedy's sex buddy, Kennedy, natch. Oh, and John Kerry, former presidential candidate and liar,liar, pants on fire.
Why are they so scared of John Bolton?
Not that the UN isn't peppered with Clinton administration lawyers and even Bill Clinton himself insinuated in Turtle Bay via the tsunami excuse.
Eight years and no one in the senate or Clinton administration knew anything?
Ah. Perhaps Biden, Kerry liar,liar, pants on fire, and Billy Boy DID know something.
Okay, how has the United Nations failed?
There's a massacre going on Sudan right now. Thousands are being slaughtered even as you read these words. The UN has known about this for ages. So far they have done nothing.
And how about the few UN soldiers sent to Africa raping the women?
The latest news is that much of the money sent for Asian tsunami aid has not YET reached those who need it. Except for the money gathered by America, Australia and India. Wisely kept from the UN because to funnel money through them is to throw it all into a black hole.
Or into Kofi's pocket.
People are starving in Niger. So far the UN has done nothing.
They certainly did nothing about Saddam but hey, the UN did set up and administer the oil-for-food program.
Which had BILLIONS of dollars going to Saddam's buddies across the planet. This while good Americans bought the UN drivel about starving Iraqi children due to UN sanctions.
Those Iraqi children didn't get one dime of that money. But oh, Kofi's son, Kojo-named after a rabid dog, and Kofi...hey they got plenty of money. Oh, and Saddam built himself eleven palaces at last count.
The UN is stalling on the Volker investigation and what's with all those Clinton lawyers at the UN?
Now let's see what John Kerry liar,liar pants-on-fire had to say:
It only diminishes John Bolton's validity and leverage to secure America's goals at the U.N. John Bolton has been rejected twice by the Senate to serve as our Ambassador to the United Nations.
The bolded part of Kerry's lying statement is NOT true yon ladies and gems.
Bolton has not been allowed out of committee to even get a vote. By most estimates, some 56 of senators have said they would vote to confirm. Let's see, 56 out of a hundred, probably more...why that's the majority isn't it?
John Bolton never got a simple up and down vote in the senate no matter what that lying scum from Massachusetts says.
Finally, you will hear the lamestream media moan about Bush's recess appointments.
Here's the facts.
President Clinton: 140 recess appointments over two terms. Among them:
Already Katie Couric of the legs and empty head, asked Chris Matthews (another lamebrain) with a tone of exasperation, just this morning,
"How Can He Do That?"
I don't recall Couric of the empty head and legs asking this of any pundit when Clinton made 140 recess appointments.
How can he do that Katie? It's perfectly legal AND stipulated in the constitution. The Dems filibustering of an ambassador to the UN is NOWHERE in our constitution. Those legs aren't going to teach you Civics, lamebrain Couric.
There's a few lying senators that don't want John Bolton going over to the UN and finding secrets.
The picture below sums it up.
