Shut Up Fool Awards-My Fools Runneth Over Edition

Even though I'm on my way to New York for the GLAAD National POC Media Institute, it's still Friday, and that means I have to handle my usual business of determining what fool fools or group of fools deserved this week's award.

And as the title of this week's edition gives you a clue to, my fools runneth over this week so let's get to it shall we?

The Group nominations go to the Log Cabin Republicans, the Republican Party, Fox Noise, the conservafool movement, OPSEC, and the Commission on Presidential Debates.

Our individual ones go to Gretchen Carlson, Michelle Malkin,  R. Clarke Cooper,  Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, Reince Priebus, Rep Eric Cantor (R-VA), Speaker John Boehner (R-OH), Gov Rick Scott (R-FL), Rep Louie Gohmert (R-TX),  Rep Kevin Yoder (R-KS), Artur Davis, Bryan Fischer, Dana Milbank, Mike Huckabee, Rep Steve King (R-IA) and Rep Allen West (R-FL)   

Honorable mention this week goes to Lubbock County (TX) Judge Tom Head (R), who went on an unhinged rant full of visions of black helicopters and a UN invasion of Lubbock County if President Obama wins re-election.

“I’m thinking the worst,” Head told a local Fox Noise affiliate. “Civil unrest, civil disobedience, civil war maybe. And we’re not just talking a few riots here and demonstrations, we’re talking Lexington, Concord, take up arms and get rid of the guy.”  If Obama wins, Head intoned, he’ll “hand over sovereignty of the United States to the UN.” and then call in United Nations troops to keep order.

Time to take my home state back from the Teabaggers.. . 

This week has to go to Rep. Todd Akin (R-MO)  for his colossally stupid 'legitimate rape victims don't get pregnant' comment that set off a political firestorm and had major leaders in the GOP calling for him to drop out of the race, which he refused to do.



It also got Ann Coulter pissed off at him, had the batturd crazy GOP 'menz' rushing to defend him with even more colosally stupid and science defying remarks, exposed another side of VP nominee Paul Ryan as a general in the GOP War on Women, and may be the reason that embattled Sen Claire McCaskill (D-MO) keeps her seat 

But enough, let's make it official.   Rep. Todd Akin, shut up Fool!
