As much as I hate awards shows, I love awards lists. And the end of the year is the perfect time to come up with lists of things: What you’re going to do next year, what you should have done last year and what you have to pay for from Christmas before someone shows up to repossess it. Again, end of year lists are awesome. This year I’ve decided to give unofficial awards to the five most interesting or important political events of 2011. Many of these awards are quite an honor, some are not. But in the end, every event or person below was worthy of something at the end of the year.
