Last week's douchebag of the week

A little late, but her attempts this week to backpedal have not improved her situation, so here it is.

Sarah Heath Palin, former governor of Alaska and current candidate to replace Paula Abdul on American Idol, earns this week's condom for claiming the administration's health care proposal will have a "death panel" that decides who lives and dies, including her Down syndrome baby. Shameless. Keith Olbermann put it best when he took her to task for using Trig Palin to advance this lie after she publicly complained about David Letterman's use of her daughters to make a joke. I guess it's OK if she uses her own children in public, though.

A close runner-up and candidate for this coming week's douchebag for the same reason is former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich for advancing the same idea. At least Bible Spice is dumb enough to actually believe it's true. Even a history professor who failed to achieve tenure couldn't believe that, or could he?

Sarah Palin, the douchebag of the week just ended. Would you like your condom flavored or ribbed?
