Top Idiots of The Week Awards

AND THE WINNER IS:

RightBias regrets to announce that one of our favorite actors is the winner of this weeks' Top Idiot Of The Week award. Harrison Ford has joined the ranks of eco-idiots by shaving off all his lovely chest hair in an effort to raise awareness of the effect of deforestation on 'global warming.' Inquiring minds want to know: How does a hairless chest keep trees from being cut down?

RUNNER-UP:

A Muncie woman was arrested after asking a state trooper whether she could smoke - and then lighting up a marijuana joint. She may be an idiot, but at least she has manners.

HONORABLE MENTION:

A man rammed his truck into a woman's vehicle on a highway early Friday. He told authorities he crashed into her while going more than 100 mph because God told him "she needed to be taken off the road." Duh.

A Boston State trooper stopped a woman in labor who was speeding to the hospital. Not only did he give her a $100 citation for driving in the breakdown lane, he made her wait for her citation while he finished writing someone else's ticket.

The group of 'peace activists' who, this week, petitioned the Portland City Council. These idiots want Portland to become a sanctuary city for Iraq war deserters..

Senior Clay Edwards' photo won't be in this year's Bracken County High School yearbook. No, he didn't miss 'picture day' - he showed up in a dog collar and make-up. "That's just who I am" he proclaimed. Ah, government schools...

STUPID CRIMINALS:

The man accused of being the shotgun-wielding robber in a two-county string of Dunkin' Donuts robberies repeatedly barked like a dog at a county judge this afternoon during a court hearing. He was ordered held without bail. Maybe the judge should have whacked his nose with a newspaper.

Two dumber-than-dumb denizens of The Bronx tried to flag down what they thought was a livery cab after robbing an old lady - only to find it was full of cops. When the officers asked the moronic muggers for ID, one of them pulled out the 70-year-old victim's wallet.

MOST IDIOTIC STATEMENTS:

Senate top-dog, Harry Reid, wins the Most Idiotic Statement of the Week award by proclaiming to the world that he was happy the new welcome center finally opened, because he was tired of smelling stinky tourists. Remember, our dollars are paying this yahoo's salary. Maybe we're the idiots.

RUNNER-UP:

Mark Whitaker, the number two man at NBC News, opined that Obama's skin color gives him more legitimacy around the world than possibly any American leader in history. Color-blind he ain't.

Honorable mention has to go to Dan Barker of the Freedom from Religion Foundation. On Fox & Friends, he stated that the nativity scene represents 'hate speech' and 'a direct attack on good human values.' See video here.

JUST PLAIN FUNNY:

An 82-year-old Italian man who took a Viagra pill scared his wife so much she called the police, fearing he would have a heart attack
