Kevin Drum at the Washington Monthly has been running a poll to determine the wingnuttiest blog post of the last few years. 22,000 votes later the winner by a comfortable margin is the man who calls himself AssHindrocket who on July 28, 2005, achieved immortality in the annals of stupid with the following:

"It must be very strange to be President Bush. A man of extraordinary vision and

Speaking of awards, the Galloping Beaver is a finalist for best blog in our traffic class in the 2007 Weblog awards put together by Wizbang. Votes continues until Nov. 8. We are currently losing to a Brooklyn College professor who is obsessed with the Duke University lacrosse team rape case. You can vote once a day until then, so click the link and do the right thing.
