That is the new contest put on by The Washington Monthly, that anyone can vote on. There are several options to choose from. I wasn't able to read all of them because some are too damn long (perhaps partially why they made this list to begin with). The shorter ones I read ranged from insensitive and insulting to intellectually mystifying. There are some real doozies.
There is Michelle Malkin in a cheerleading uniform, doing the Defeatocrat cheer. There is John Derbyshire of the New Republic asking why didn't anyone rush the Virginia Tech shooter. My favorite quote from this one:
"It's not like this was Rambo, hosing the place down with automatic weapons. He had two handguns for goodness' sake"
There is Hugh Hewitt, sitting in the Empire State Building comparing himself to a reporter sitting in Baghdad. Then there is John Hinderaker of Power Line who opens his post with this:
"It must be very strange to be President Bush. A man of extraordinary vision and brilliance approaching to genius, he can't get anyone to notice. He is like a great painter or musician who is ahead of his time, and who unveils one masterpiece after another to a reception that, when not bored, is hostile."
Apparently, he is being serious. Yikes! I can't say I would pick one post as the winner (or loser, however you want to look at it). I know it seems like I am being indecisive, but honestly, how do you pick out the worst turd from such a large barrel of shit?
