The Year of Yelling After a long hunt by the press, Congressman Randy Neugebauer, a Texas Republican, finally stepped forward to admit that he was the one who yelled "baby killer" as his colleague, Congressman Bart Stupak, a Michigan Democrat, gave a speech to the House of Representatives last night. Neugebauer this afternoon issued a lengthy sort-of apology: "Last night was the climax of weeks and months of debate on a health care bill that my constituents fear and do not support. In the heat and emotion of the debate, I exclaimed the phrase 'it's a baby killer' in reference to the agreement reached by the Democratic leadership. While I remain heartbroken over the passage of this bill and the tragic consequences it will have for the unborn, I deeply regret that my actions were mistakenly interpreted as a direct reference to Congressman Stupak himself. I have apologized to Mr. Stupak and also apologize to my colleagues for the manner in which I expressed my disappointment about the bill. The House Chamber is a place of decorum and respect. The timing and tone of my comment last night was inappropriate."

It also produced award-winning entries such as "The Skeleton Dance," "The Band Concert" and "The Three Little Pigs."

In response to the public’s insatiable thirst to know absolutely everything about the future president, here are some excerpts (wink):
