Girlieman of the Week - Chardon High School Principal Doug Delong

Girlieman of the Week
Date Awarded: May 30, 2008

Girlieman: Doug Delong
Antics: Hiding behind the ‘rules’.

In theory, as principal of Chardon High School (Ohio), Doug Delong should serve as an example for the inmates of his government cess-school. He should be willing to show them that, sometimes, rules must be bent, even broken, due to unforeseen circumstances. This week, Doug had a chance to show his captive audience that he had the nads to do the right thing, no matter what the rules specified. Instead, Doug gave them a close look at craven cowardice.

Ironically, two of Doug’s students, a pair of seniors named Will McDonnell and Tony Workman, the young men who shined a spotlight on Doug’s gutless wonder antics, are shining examples of courage. Will McDonnell, having fulfilled his graduation requirements early in the school year, joined the United States Marines and has already completed his boot camp. Tony Workman, a proud member of the Army National Guard, completed the U.S. Army’s 10-week long basic training, last Summer. Both young men should be honored for their decision to defend our nation and its liberty.

Proud of their service to this country, these young warriors made a simple request. They wanted to forego the cap and gown and receive their high school diploma decked out in their uniforms. At first, that seemed to be an acceptable arrangement, until Doug the Slug went furtive and girlie. If he allowed this exception to the no, cap, no gown, no diploma rule, Doug whined that other ‘organizations’ would demand equal time. What a load of bull crap! Instead, Doug agreed to let the young men strut their uniformed stuff by leading the Honor Guard before the graduation ceremony. But, when it came time to go up on the stage for their diploma, the young warriors must wear their cap and gown.

Unlike Doug the Slug, Marines don’t surrender and neither does he United States Army. The two young warriors have made their decision. They will wear the uniforms throughout the ceremony and stand proudly, at attention, when their names are called, without going up on the stage. It’s an honorable decision and we all salute them for it.

Doug the Slug is a whining, rules obsessed, weasel who fails to see any distinction between the armed forces of the United States and a 4-H Club. For that...for taking a dump on two patriotic young warriors...for being a gutless guttersnipe who hides behind ‘the rules’...for being unworthy to spit-shine the boots of these young warriors, Doug ‘The Slug’ Delong is the Politically Incorrect Gazette’s Girlieman of the Week.
