One of the more popular features on this blog has been the weekly 'Shut Up Fool! Award in which I shine a bright spotlight on the fools that are within our midst. There are certain people that should get it every week, but that's another post.
So without further ado, I'm going to reveal the winner of the Shut up Fool! of the Year Award for 2009.
As always, there were a plethora of worthy candidates, some who are in the running for the Shut up Fool! Lifetime Achievement Award like a certain Oxycontin popping right wing talk show host.
But one person particularly stood out in terms of being a straight up fool with nauseating consistency.
The envelope please.Our winner of the 2009 Shut Up Fool! Of The Year Award is:
Michael Steele.
Whether it was calling Rush Limbaugh out and then retracting the statement, giving 'slum love' to Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, trying to entice African Americans to join the Republican Party with 'hip-hop outreach' or claiming the GOP was 'scared of him', GOP Chairman Michael Steele never ceased to come up with some stupid jibber jabber as our mascot would call it.
He also consistently embarrassed himself and his party. Glad he's on your team.
Congratulations, and Shut Up Fool!
