From those that read my diaries, you know that I have a love for calling out certain right-wing nut jobs, partisan hacks and do-nothings that unfortunately walk the Halls of our Congress. All of these need to be sent home for a variety of reasons.
My personal list of those that we need to replace include such perennial losers like: Michele "Bat Crazy" Bachmann (MN-06), Patrick "McDoofus" McHenry (NC-10), Mike "Mr Irrelevant" Rogers (AL-03), Peter "He's Bad" King (NY-03) and Ralph "Why am I still here" Hall (TX-04)
My list in the past week, like I'm sure yours will now also include, has grown with the additions of Obama health care speech GOP Problem Children Joe "You lie" Wilson (SC-02), Louie "What Bill?" Gohmert (TX-01), Eric "I can beat you in Brickbreaker on the Blackberry" Cantor (VA-07) and John "Leaving on a Jet Plane" Shimkus(IL-19)

Update - a couple of more good suggestions Jean "Birther" Schmidt, Virginia "Crazy like a "Foxx"
Here they are - My heralded and unheralded worst of the worst
My usual suspects
- Michele Bachmann - A sample from my series of Bachmann diaries - No Danger in Right-Wing Extremism No further explanation needed.
- Patrick McHenry - where do I start? - now he wants investigation of the 44 "Obama czars" ; here he is berating a U.S. Soldier in Iraq calling him a "two-bit security guard" because he won't let him workout while rockets are flying;
- Mike Rogers - in 2008 Rogers was ranked 405 out of 435 members of Congress in terms of effectiveness - just earlier this year he called Nancy Pelosi Tom Delay in a Skirt. He's also got perhaps the worst rug on his head in Congress. Pelosi likely couldn't pick out Rogers from a lineup of five guys on the Street. Oh and here's an ad he ran against 2008 opponent Josh Segall, who's running again in 2010
- Peter King - ranting about Michael Jackson
The new members - no further explanation needed than these pictures
- Shimkus leaves early
- Gohmert and Hall thinking they are at a townhall
- Cantor, on his blackberry, beating your high score on brickbreaker
- Here's Louie "What Bill?" Gohmert wondering "Why did Joe Wilson get to yell while I had to hold this lousy handmade sign?"
