Billy Tauzin is bitterly disappointed that the Academy did not consider his contributions in this category. -- BE LIKE THE TWENTY-SECOND ELEPHANT WITH HEATED VALUE IN SPACE--BARK!
Mr. Tauzin is an elected official, not an appointed one. He's not eligible for this booby prize (I think I'll call it the Kenny award, for Kenneth Lay, the dirtbag from Enron).
While Billy may be a dirtbag as well, he likely begged, borrowed and stole his own way into public office.
