GrodsCorp has been following the sorry story of Andrew “Sex Machine” Bolt for a while now. After years of bravely rallying against that liar, Tim Flannery, who isn’t even a climate expert like himself, Bolt must have been completely crushed when Tim was voted Australian of The Year over a far more deserving candidate - himself.
Many of us still remember his bizarre rants containing mostly out-of-context quotes that tried (and failed) to discredit Flannery.
Quite frankly, I thought Flannery was an excellent choice, if a little political in an election year. To balance it out next year, we might need someone a little riskier…
The AOTY website states that the AOTY Award is given to:
…leading citizens who are role models for us all. They inspire us through their achievements and challenge us to make our own contribution to creating a better Australia.
Who exemplifies this more than Andrew Bolt? He’s a role model, and he inspires and challenges us all (or so he thinks). He inspired me to write this post.
Unfortunately, there is one hurdle he must overcome:
Self nominations will not be accepted.
Obviously no-one else is going to nominate him, so I am going to take it upon myself to do just that. Join me, Australian, in nominating Andrew Bolt for Australian of The Year! Give the man what he truly wants (and some may argue, deserves).
To nominate Bolt, simply follow these instructions:
1. Pick up a nomination form from your local Commonwealth Bank branch, Holiday Inn or National Seniors Association, or nominate online.
2. Complete the nomination form by supplying all the relevant information including both your nominees contact details and your own. Don’t forget to outline why you think your nominee should be named Australian of the Year, Senior Australian of the Year, Young Australian of the Year or Australia’s Local Hero.
3. Send your nomination form and any supporting material for your nomination to:
The Awards team
Old Parliament House Canberra
King George Terrace
Parkes ACT 2600Supporting material may include personal references, portfolios, newspaper articles and resumes. Supporting material will strengthen your nomination and give the selection committees a clearer idea about why you believe your nominee should receive an award.
GrodsCorp sincerely wishes Andrew Bolt all the best, and hopes that come next Australian Day, Bolt will be standing upon the platform shaking Prime Minister Kevin Rudd’s hand.
GrodsCorp also trust that his many righty friends back up this deserving nomination. To do otherwise is equal to not supporting the war - grossly un-Australian.

The entire cage fightin’ contents of Timmeh Blair’s toll’o'vision for one would be chompin’ at the bit to get split pelvis that fine slot.

I know you’re being sarcastic, but, Christ. Imagine it.

If tens of thousands of fools can be persuaded to write “Jedi” on their census forms then surely we can persuade a dozen or so hippy leftie bloggers to nom Bolta for AoTY.

I’d be too frightened that more than a dozen would do it, the app would be taken seriously, and he might bloody well win. ‘For humanitarianism and support for the underdog’ or something equally silly.

Something tells me if this actually happened I would get the blame.

May as well nominate Jeremy too since he is trying his best to be the Yin of Bolt’s Yan.

Let’s just all nominate each other. It’ll be a big bloggy love-in.
