Please submit your nominees for the 13th Annual Late H. Lee Atwater Award for Right Wing Evil

GREETings, my lovelies... As you ALL know, HALLOWEEN IS COMING...



How are all of you Creepers and Creepettes, as well as all of you non-binary Creepy Types doing this fine Halloween Season? This post is to announce that it's time once again, to submit your nominees for the Late H. Lee Atwater Award for Right Wing Evil! It's the THIRTEENTH year of this proud DU tradition. I'm sure that you can't wait to vote for your favorite evilest of winger or wingers.

As is tradition, the award thread will be posted on Halloween Eve, also know as DEVIL'S NIGHT, right here in GD. I'm sure that some of you are chomping at the bit to SUBMIT the names of your favorite right wing asshole or assholes. Especially since there are so many to choose from. In the years where we've had an abundance of names that were too big for one poll, we had a play-off round poll and a championship round poll to pick the overall winner.

I'd love to see that happen this year as well...


Also, we'll be declaring the recipient of the Sixth Annual Richard Bruce "Dick" Cheney Lifetime Achievement Award for Right Wing Evil. Past recipients consisted of Bruce "Dick" Cheney, "Pig Boy" Rush Limbaugh, Karl "Svengali" Rove, Bill "Rapey" O'Reilly and Steve "America's Most Racist Congressman" King.

This year's recipient is none other than Mitch "Yertle" McConnell, who just happens to be the winner of last year's Award for Right Wing Evil. So, make sure to submit your seconds and thirds, so that he gets the Golden Dick, if you'd like.



Now dig in deep, dearies, light a candle and get your nominations on, because it's that time of year that we all love...

but it seems that rudy has his own henchmen (igor and lev ) so maybe he qualifies in the super villian category.

all of these levels of evil make them harder to sort out than the corporate structure of trump inc and its subsidiaries.

so, in the American spirit of "corporations are people too," i'd like to nominate the "trump organization."

"at the end of the day, the president is in the hospitality business." Mulvaney

an so was norman bates.

In charge of the laws of this country. Lying sack or crap, and include his son who works at the White House and daughter in law at treasury. I’m sure none of them are working for an income, they have a more undemocratic righteous calling.

All of it wrong.

I know that's sick, and I don't feel that way about every person I disagree with politically, but seriously, fuck Lee Atwater.

He not only used an orphaned baby for a photo op, he used bereaved parents for a White House reality TV encounter with the woman who killed their son.

Pure. Insane. Evil.
