Wonkette
WONKETTE COMPLETELY ENDORSES THIS 50 WORST MONSTERS LIST: The Buffalo Beast is known for these crushing obituaries of terrible living Americans, and the 2009 edition is built to please/enrage. The 50th, least offensive spot is reserved for your own pretend boyfriend, Barack Obama. Why? To give the list integrity. Anyway, go read this thing, and click the ads and such. [Buffalo Beast]
Oh wow. That Mark Penn image is staggering.
The PUMA entry (22) is pretty good.
*Hiccup*
Ashley Todd appears woefully out of place on the list. I mean, seriously? She had to be the highlight of my entire lifetime. Because, you know, what else is there?
as a misogynist and fauxgressive, i completely endorse it. im glad hannity is low on the list, that’s where he should be.
this is some good readin’
One of the funniest things about the list is that Coulter is not on it because her jaw has been wired shut for much of 08.
doG bless medicine
I’ve read up to #13 Joe Lieberman, and now will pause to shudder at the thought that there are 12 people worse than him.
skutre: It still wasn’t wired shut long enough. And Robert Novak hasn’t died from his brain tumor yet. I’ll all for health care reform but really.
Finally! I’ve been waiting for the damned thing for weeks.
I bow to the genius of the Joe Scarborough entry.
“He treats his MSNBC coworkers with less professional courtesy than the dead intern found in his congressional office.”
I was also glad that they included the skeletal remains of Nancy Pfotenhauer on the list. It’s easy to overlook her, especially if she turns sideways.
ZOMG! they have a drawing of Joe Lieberman fucking a donkey. That in itself proves this is the best list of anything ever.
As for Nancy Pfotenpooper…I’d still hit it.
Just remember not to hold her too tight or you’ll crush her birdlike ribcage into chalk dust.
Mr. B. Beast… Well played, Sir.
Blago coulda ranked a little lower, but #17 is still disrespectable. It’s hard to argue with the Palinator, as the ultimate loser at #1. Only her family could be lower, and they were just stage props for back-alley abortions, high-school dropout syndrome, ocycontin abuse, and SPalin Olympics. We used to think shit like this only happened in Arkansas.
…how in the name of the almighty Ronald Reagan did they miss the fukkin SHAM-WOW guy?! Nothing is more obnoxious/annoying than stumbling in at 4am, after a hards-night drinking and turning on the TV only to find this son of a bitch trying to sell me a glorified towel on sixteen different channels!!! Ohhhhhhhhh, don’t let me see his frosted tipped ass on the street!
Nothing like being awake at 4 am waiting for you drunkards to comment.
That image of Mark Penn was the best thing I could have possibly viewed first thing in the morning. Now, no matter what else happens at work, my day can only get better from here. Thanks Ken!
AngryBlakGuy:
Personally, I could also do without those fucking annoying eHarmony and GoDaddy Commercials, too.
The list is pretty damned good. Brings back memories of the SPY 100.
A great list! You guys actually have some competition out there.
ManchuCandidate: …yeah and lets not leave out the myriad of “Male Enhancement” commercials! Personally I prefer the old school version of male enhancement…Porsche!
AngryBlakGuy: Rush Limbaugh, Mark Foley, and Bob Dole are out on a boat…
Ken, I’d like to congratulate you for your AOL common taters.
They’re quite the crowd!

“In the end, Palin had the beneficial effect of splitting her party between her admirers and people who can read.”
Actually, she split the country between her admireres and people who can read.
That is a most excellent list, almost as snarky as our Wonkette…
Never heard of this before. Some of the best writing I’ve read for a while. No word is unnecessary; every entry is to the point and represented incredibly.
To borrow the words of Tina Fey: Brett Favre can ’suck it’. His entry was esp. delicious.
“Charges: If Satan were real, and had a severely chapped anus from a fortnight of angry, unlubricated gay sex with an evil moon-dragon, we imagine it’d look a lot like Monson’s disturbingly weathered face.”
NAILED it! But I forgot Monson’s nom de Wonkette.
I would dispute #43 though. I need to be higher on the list than that, it’s been a rough year.
Love the “Malkin Runs on Crazy” illustration. And they have reviews of movie trailers! Perfecto.
Sorry to see America’s douche Sean Hannity not on the list.
Sarcasm aside. Also. Nom nom nom.
Everyone can add to their Top 50 (BillO would be my suggestion) but the Beast did a good job.
Except for my other suggestion: My Little Red Book by Rachel Kauder Nalebuff…
MY LITTLE RED BOOK is an anthology of stories about first periods, collected from women of all ages from around the world.
For that Nalebuff can replace Hopey.

Bummer. back to work.
His TBS vehicle, ‘Frank TV,’ is the least amusing thing to appear on television since the morning of September 11, 2001.
Well how do they really feel?
rocktonsammy: He’s #3. And what? Georgie Porgie is only #4? NO JUSTICE.
KittyLitter: Dude totally cruised me in the security area at 30 Rock. That’s all I have to say on that subject.
Buffalo Beast = Bloodthirsty WARBLOG Wonkette’s latest victim.
Best line: ‘Stein’s brand of conservatism is as credible as a memoir on Oprah’s reading list.’
golliwog: Yes Wonkette has broked teh Buffalo Beast. We left-coasters have got to get up earlier, I guess.
Here is the mirror site that we can all overwhelm:

Quite an impressive list, and Rush Limbaugh didn’t even crack the top 10. USA, USA!
Katie Couric: “What do you read”?
Joe Wurzelbacher: “I read Rush Limbaugh on the radio”
If somehow the Wurzelbacher & Blogojevich Families get together & have a person with the hyphentated thingy name, it would be called: Mr. Wurzelbacher-Blagojevich or just Crazy Dude for short
David Letterman had Blago’s hair giving a press conference last night!
Entry #51 should be Buffalo Beast for not putting W. in the #1 slot. I mean, really, McCain and Palin are worse? At least they lost the election.
TGY: Yeah, that makes no sense. Of course, Cheney really should be #1, with him eatin the babies and all.
That was a great read. Though I think some people should have been higher and other should have been lower (Frank Caliendo above Michelle Bachmann??), I can agree with pretty much all of those. Not sure how Bill O’Reilly isn’t on the list though. Seems like he should be there every year.
LOVE IT! But I’m enough of a Hopetard to say this: Barry made the list and Nader DIDN’T?!?!? Cum aawwwwwwwnnnnn.
Wow, something hip and edgy from Buffalo, New York, the home of beef on weck and the Sabres? Damn.
For those of you not familiar with The Beast, it was founded by Matt Taibbi was an American version of The eXile.
jesus,damn wonetters are overloading the internets or something i only got the first page!
Be sure to check out The Buffalo Beast monthly. You can subscribe and get a print edition delivered for $1 a month. They’ve almost gone broke a few times so show some support if you enjoyed the list.
This was unsolicited by the way, I’ve been a fan for a while and would like to see them stick around.
