Dumbass of the Week

Lot's of competition this week:

Runner Up: Salam Pax for writing a suprisingly childish and condescending open letter to President Bush. Lileks takes him down in style today. My favorite bit

Hey, Salam? Fuck you.

Eloquence preceeds and follows that great quote, read it.

Runner Up: Gary George. A crook. A hypocrite. A Democrat. Caught red-handed with the biggest sleazeball Democrat in the state, Mark Sostarich.

Winner: Mohammed Akhtar for is dumbass quote in today's Guardian:

Mohammed Akhtar, from Middlesbrough, was in the village as a member of his town's Islamic Society. He said: "All the problems we are facing all over the world have all been created by Mr Bush."

Yes, that's right Mohammed. ALL of the problems. Every last problem facing muslims (I assume that's what he means by "we") was started by President Bush after he was elected in 2000. As we all know, everything was simply peachy in the middle east before that.
