HONORABLE MENTION: Colorado Rep. Tom Tancredo, leader of the Republicans' xenophobe lobby, addressed at the Tea Party convention by calling for the return of Jim Crow-era voting laws. And Teabaggers wonder why anyone could possibly see extremism in their "movement."
WINNER: Georgia Sen. Saxby Chamblis, as quoted by The New Yorker:
“the presence in the armed forces of persons who demonstrate a propensity or intent to engage in homosexual acts” would be likely to create an atmosphere susceptible to “alcohol use, adultery, fraternization, and body art.”
Except in a few states, gays can't get married so they can't commit adultery.
And if you banned alcohol and tattoos from the military, you wouldn't have much of a military left.
