Welcome to the 15th Annual The Late H. Lee Atwater Award for Right Wing Evil

Last edited Sat Oct 30, 2021, 02:59 AM - Edit history (2)


As always, this Festivity is Dedicated to The Rotting and Desiccated
Corpse of the dirtiest of dirty GOPr ratfuckers, the Late H. Lee Atwater


The crack of Midnight (UTC-4)? plus a few yields another Halloween Eve, DEVIL'S NIGHT, my children. The time when creepy crawlies reap all kinds of mischief. So, for the next twenty-four scintillating hours, it's a time for all of you to play...

Welcome to the event that makes your pre-Halloween celebration the joyous occasion that it certainly is, you ghosts and goblins, you… It's time for The 15th Annual Late H. Lee Atwater Award for Right Wing Evil! (Insert evil, echoing cackle here.)



We've reached a momentous milestone, in this, the fifteen year of selecting the worst of the miserable worst. Hopefully we'll get to select a good one this Halloween season... Good, meaning BAD, of course. And as always, these circumstances have yielded quite a collection of evil actors too chose from, a veritable bumper crop of despicable Right Wing characters, delivered straight from Central Casting. A true collection of real life HORROR. (More evil, echoing cackling). Has there ever been a more horrifying collection of Scary Monsters hellbent on ruining everyone's lives before?

Why do I ask that question every year? They're always bad, so I must. But now, they seem so much worse. Much, much, much more worse.

As you know, the winner who will be chosen by all of you and will be announced in 24 wretched hours, at Midnight ET on Halloween, when the Rotting and Desiccated Corpse of the Late H. Lee Atwater will rise from his grave in South Carolina and hand out the award with his boney hands. That's tonight (East Coast time, of course).

Last year's winner, as you may remember, was Stephen "Junior Goebbels" Miller, who fortunately is NOW off the government payroll. And the recipient of the Seventh Annual Richard Bruce "Dick" Cheney Lifetime Achievement Award for Right Wing Evil was Leningrad" Lindsey Graham, who's still stinking up the Government's hallowed halls. Let's see who it will be this year, shall we?

Tonight, before the tolling of the Witching Hour that will signal another glorious Halloween, we'll all place our votes for the people that you have nominated.



After what we've all had to endure this year, it may seem as if the outcome will be obvious, but we have so many horrid little evil creatures to choose from. Use your vote well. Also, I'd like to take this time to announce that we'll be awarding the Eighth Annual Richard Bruce "Dick" Cheney Lifetime Achievement Award for Right Wing Evil to Tucker "Fucker" Carlson,. Seeing how the award is shaped, it's long overdue for this guy. So, we're gonna rectify that.

Anyway, let's do this thing:

From your nominations, here is your collection of walking, talking Creature Features for your perusal. Your vote will determine who receives this year's auspicious award. You nominated some of these evil bastards earlier and I added the rest:


1. "The Monstrous" Trump Klan


2. Addison Mitchell "Moscow Yertle" McConnell


3. "Greg "Abominable" Abbott


4. Matt "DUI" Gaetz


5.Tucker "Yep, He's Still A Nazi" Carlson


6. Lauren "Madame Ptomaine" Boebert


7. Ted "Carnival" Cruz


8. Marjorie Taylor "Gang" Greene


9. Ron "Death Cultist" Desantis


10. Madison "Fresh Faced Nazi" Cawthorn




Vote well, everyone, and ALWAYS remember...

… because literally he turns my stomach.


By the way, have you seen the cartoonist Anne Telnaes’ group portrait of the Trumps as a 1930s crime family? Managed to get a link but can’t copy/paste it to here.

I ended up picking Abbott, because Texas is such a fustercluck right now thanks to him. Of course, Florida is a fustercluck, too, and it was hard to choose between Abbott and DeSantis. The Texas abortion vigilante law finally pushed me over the edge in Abbott's favor.

DeSantis is a dangerous, narcissistic troglodyte

McConnell is sociopathic, but can be defanged next year if we win three seats and keep all (since the GOP is on defense in 2022)

Trumps are all noise now

Greene is loud, but impotent even in her own party

Boebert is too stupid to do anything other than talk

Cruz has been exposed nationally as a two-face fraud

Carlson just preaches to his audience and isn't much of anything.

Gaetz's ego will put him in prison

Abbott's act only works in Texas and is truly not ready for prime time (a louder, more in your face Doug Ducey)


With that all said, my vote goes to Ron DeSantis, since he had presidential aspirations and has shown the country what he will do if president, since Florida is going to Hell in a hand-basket. Plus he's a Trump clone.

But I finally settled on Tucker Carlson. Can I do a shout out for my own Governor, Henry(Disaster) McMaster for his faithfulness in keeping the Covid death rate high in South Carolina. The grim reaper salutes him

He is the most responsible for breaking our government and destroying SCOTUS. He enabled most of the rest of these cretins.

If you could only choose one to squish it would be Moscow Mitch. He's the slimiest most dangerous bug today. I would use a giant can of raid on all of them to wipe out the infestation. Unfortunately the deplorables that feed them will always exist.

And, TFG sentenced over a quarter million people to die unnecessarily because he thought taking the pandemic seriously would hurt him politically.

He also tried to bribe a foreign leader to rig the election. THEN when he lost the election, he and his goons tried to overthrow the U.S. government.

So, yeah. As long as he still hasn't stroked out from KFC, he will hold the mantle as the most evil motherfucker ever fielded by the GOP.
