Well, that’s not really my call. But Olbermann thinks nothing of electing candidates for the title on his unwatchable, histrionic TV show. Most recently, he decided that the worst person in the WORLD is Wendy Wright , president of Concerned Women for America (CWA) .
Even if CWA is not your cup of tea straight down to the lace doily, when I think of the greatest threats to the WORLD—suicide bombers, dictators armed with nukes and a map of the world dated “1453,” neo-eugenicist baby-splicers, and idiot sportscasters with delusions of grandeur who confuse fevered fantasies of teenagers getting it on with an informed opinion—Wendy Wright and her agenda to stop sexualizing children does not immediately come to mind.
The left has complained for a couple of decades now about right-wing talking heads spewing bile rather than encouraging thoughtful discussion, and with some justice. But rather than providing the latter as an antidote, they have decided instead to jump head first into the dead-head pool, which was drained long ago by some benevolent Toxic Substances Registry agent. (Is Air America still on, by the way? Or has it moved to a frequency that only dogs can hear?)
