The Whole Delivery

From Joe Wilson to the Heene family, from Betsy McCaughey to Steve King. From the Salahis to Owen Schmitt , your Straight jacket Award for this year of 2009. All the nutty moments that have been covered here at The Whole Delivery for this year will be narrowed down to the person truly deserving of this coveted new award. So, without further ado, today we shall find out who will win the Straight Jacket Award for this year.

Is some fellow fairly anonymous nutcase Congressman from Florida named Jeff Miller. Look at his sign: May they have a reality show certifying their love for each other. (Huge Thanks T.P. )

By a 240 to 179 house vote on the floor, Joe Wilson has been officially reprimanded. But his stupidity and racism already did that. Now let's move on from the sideshow idiots. Easier said than done.

Mr.Waterloo strikes again “Joe has handled it well,” he said. “The fact is, Joe Wilson was telling the truth. … There’s a huge loophole that virtually guarantees that illegal immigrants would be covered.” When I asked if he thought Wilson should be censured, he replied, “No, I mean, there’s no reason to.” He pointed out that Wilson had already apologized to the president. All the attention the incident is getting, he said, is the result of a desire on the part of Democrats to change the subject from reform legislation. “Nancy Pelosi needs a distraction from the substance of this health care bill,” he said. Agrees with Joe Wilson's lie. That's the DeMinted one for you. And that is South Carolina politics for you as well. Lindsay Graham is the most moderate voice in South Carolina politics outside of the incomparable James Clyburn. I feel for you rational South Carolina people.

So surprising With just two words -- "You lie!" -- Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) "went from being pretty safe for re-election to one of the most vulnerable Republican incumbents in the country," a new Public Policy Polling survey finds. Rob Miller (D) edges Wilson, 44% to 43%, in a survey conducted Thursday night and Friday morning. Key finding: A majority of voters, 62%, in SC-2 disapprove of Wilson's outburst while just 29% were not bothered by it. Those 29%, I wonder how much they support health care reform with a public option?

Photo from Monsivais of the Associated Press The O'Jays must have been in his head. Or maybe not Jonathan Allen reports newly-amended financial disclosure forms find that Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) -- who heckled President Obama last night -- is heavily leveraged and his debts may even exceed his assets. The new filings reveal for the first time hundreds of thousands of dollars in previously unreported loans from federal credit unions and banks. A Wilson aide did not reply to e-mailed requests for information, and phone lines to Wilson's office were jammed. Meanwhile, Wilson's Democratic opponent in next year's election has pulled in over $300,000 in new campaign contributions since last night. In debt. Maybe someone should hold a "You Liar" rally for this man. And while we are at it, let's show high morale Joe in a great past moment. "Hatred of America." What a guy.

Is one Mike Duvall . In a new statement on his campaign website, Duvall writes : Assemblyman Duvall Denies Reports that He Had Affair I want to make it clear that my decision to resign is in no way an admission that I had an affair or affairs. My offense was engaging in inappropriate story-telling and I regret my language and choice of words. The resulting media coverage was proving to be an unneeded distraction to my colleagues and I resigned in the hope that my decision would allow them to return to the business of the state. Yeah, like it is so hard to forget this and all... You had got to love his amnesia. Where is Joe Wilson's stupidity when it is needed.

Tevin couldn't be more fitting after what we saw tonight, from not a definitive, all or nothing stance on a public option, to, well, yeah. See you in the morning.

......... This evening I let my emotions get the best of me when listening to the President’s remarks regarding the coverage of illegal immigrants in the health care bill. While I disagree with the President’s statement, my comments were inappropriate and regrettable. I extend sincere apologies to the President for this lack of civility.” Just imagine his kids being taunted by other kids for their father's historical stupidity. I really feel for them. And "Trigger Man" obviously is going to make an example of that nut "We can disagree without being disagreeable," Emanuel said to Wilson, according to the official. "That was the point of the president's speech." Our political discourse in a nut shell.

The latest national sensation. He has become Fudges' new hero.
