14) Senator Ted Stevens: I demand that Alaska get to keep it’s pork or I’ll quit the Senate! It should have been bye-bye Ted!

4) Pat Robertson: Can you go more than a few months without saying something so stupid that it makes national headlines? Put a sock in it big mouth!

2) Senator John McCain: Nobody fought harder for Al-Qaeda’s right to be free of belly slaps.

You’ll have to go on over to Right Wing News to see who topped the list.

COMMUNITY OF LEARNERS – A five-dollar phrase on a nickel-errand. Value-added into many higher education mission statements. “Not to be confused with ‘school.’â€? – Jim Howard from Mishawa, Ind.

BREAKING NEWS – Once it stopped presses. Now it’s a lower-intestinal condition brought about by eating dinner during newscasts. “Now they have to interrupt my supper to tell me that Katie Holmes is pregnant.â€? — Michael Raczko, Swanton, Ohio.

AN ACCIDENT THAT DIDN’T HAVE TO HAPPEN – Best-laid mayhem. “This means some accidents need to happen, for whatever reason, I can’t figure.â€? — Thomas Price, Orlando, Fla.

6. Harvard University’s Marxist Concepts of Racism examines “the role of capitalist development and expansion in creating racial inequalityâ€? (emphasis added). Although Karl Marx didn’t say much on race, leftist professors in this course extrapolate information on “racial oppressionâ€? and “racial antagonism.”

7. Occidental College—making the Dirty Dozen list twice—offers a course in Stupidity, which compares the American presidency to Beavis and Butthead.

Read the whole thing.

Honorable Mention: Ted Rall
Good old Ted was the front runner for most of the year. His tasteless, humorless, sick, and insulting editorial cartoons which depicted soldiers as rapists, torturers, and murderers only hint at the vapidness which is his essence. The fact that he actually believes most of what he publishes only leads to the conclusion that somehow, somewhere, a doctor has figured out how to sustain life in a brain stem baby.

Honorable Mention: Howard Dean
Dean is the gift that keeps on giving to the Republican Party. He never met a foot he couldn’t stick in his mouth, and never met an ally he couldn’t alienate. The low-light of his year is when he declared during a radio interview that there was no way American forces would win the War in Iraq, while still claiming that he supported the troops.

Winner: Michael Crook
Michael who? Believe me, I wish he had faded into obscurity. However, sometimes no matter how many times you flush, the crap never goes into the sewer system. Crook’s actions started when he published a website called “Forsake the Troops” wherein he ridiculed members of the armed forces who are currently fighting in Iraq. It was later learned that he was a white supremacist, posting on the website of the racist organization Stormfront .

Crook’s latest claim to fame may well be the most depraved. He recently sent a card to a soldier who was recovering from battle wounds at Walter Reed Hospital. The inside of the card said:

Dear soldier:

Have a great time in the war and have a great time dieing(sic) in the war.

From Miguel

P.S. DIE

For a long time, he had denied being the person who sent this card. However, on December 18, 2005 he finally admitted sending the card:

“For those that have e-mailed or IM’d me regarding the card sent to Joshua Sparling, yes I did it. I do not regret a minute of it.

I even included a jab at my detractors, by signing it “Miguel”. Here in the photo, the card obviously made it to its intended destination, his hands and his hospital room. Enjoy that, tax-sucking scumbag!

Oh, and for the veteran scum at various, randomly chosen VFW halls across the country– including Fountain Hills, AZ; Dayton, OH; Syracuse, NY; Mays Landing, NJ; Houston TX, and more…. you’re welcome for your “special” cards and faxes.

And, yes, I was the “heartless SOB” that sent four cards to the Veterans Hospital on Irving Avenue in Syracuse.

No, I don’t regret it, and yes I’ll do it again in a heartbeat.

Any questions?”

When I first heard about this guy, I thought he was just some young punk who was trying to push the buttons of people he was trying to anger. No such luck, as this waste of human flesh apparently believes the trash he is spewing.

Quite frankly, I’m surprised that I haven’t read the headline “Michael Crook Found Dead, Over 2 Million Witnesses Claim Responsibility.”

Michele Malkin declares Crook the Unhinged Scumbag of the Year.

The Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler thinks Crook isn’t long for this world, either.

7) Cronus Protagonist: “Will Karl Rove have to be suicided?

Once the election fraud comes out and it’s clear Roves fingerprints are all over it, and that it leads all the way to Bush’s desk, Bush’s best defense will be a Rove “suicide” – remember the old maxim in politics – dead men tell no tales.

If left alive, Rove would have too many tales to tell.”

It isn’t usually my style to ridicule people with such obvious emotional and mental health issues, but in cases like this where it is all self-inflicted, I feel it is appropriate.
