Fuckwad of the Week

Dec 14, 2007 15:03

We have a problem, people.
Nobody this week seems to have reached the high standard of fuckwaddery required for nomination. Sure, we've had the usual "um...maybe" from Kevin Rudd, the usual "Mine! Mine!" from the Liberal Party, but it's been a largely fuckwad-free week. And that's sure disappointing, isn't it? Maybe in your neck of the woods, someone's been such a monumental fuckwad that you can nominate them. But down here it's very light in the fuckwad department.
So instead of nominating a fuckwad of the week this week, and seeing as how there's only two Fridays left before year's end, this week we take a retrospective look at all the people who have won this prestigious award this year. We only started in May, but we've got a fine selection. Our nominated Fuckwads, one of whom will be named Fuckwad of the Year very soon, are as follows (in chronological order)
  • Paul Keating
  • The NSW Police
  • George Pell
  • Hamas and Fatah
  • George W. Bush
  • The Australian Federal Police
  • Kevin Andrews
  • Evan Thornley
  • Barack Obama
  • Stephen Parry
  • Kasey Kazee (aka "The Duct Tape Bandit")
  • Daniel Blackner (aka "The Demon Dwarf")
  • Larry Craig
  • Stephen Harper
  • Peter Phelps
  • Jeff Robinov
  • Peter Costello, the Chicken
  • James Watson
  • Tony Abbott
  • Peter Garrett
  • Tony Abbott (again!)
  • The Government of Sudan
  • Michael Atkinson
That's twenty-three nominations. Thirteen are Australians, five are American, two British, one Canadian, one Palestinian and one Sudanese. A stunning four of those thirteen Australians are former members of the Howard government; another one is a minister in the Rudd government and one more is a former Prime Minister. We have a total of sixteen nominations from the field of politics and government, proving what fuckwads our leaders really are, as well as one from the film industry, two from law enforcement, one from the world of crime, one scientist, one cleric and one...well, one dwarf.
So, whom do you think should be crowned as the inaugural Fuckwad of the Year for 2007? I'm going to narrow this list down to just three, and one of those lucky three shall recieve the title.

More fuckwads soon. But possibly not soon enough.
