The Knucklehead of the Day award Part Two

Our second winner is Washington Post writer Henry Allen. He gets the award for the following.

But now that he's died of a heart attack in the luxury of his Colorado getaway while awaiting sentencing for his crimes, none of his victims will be able to contemplate that he's locked away in a place that makes the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel look like Hawaii; that he might be spending long nights locked in a cell with a panting tattooed monster named Sumo, a man of strange and constant demands; and long days in the prison laundry or jute mill or license plate factory, gibbering with anguish as fire-eyed psychopaths stare at him for unblinking hours while they sharpen spoons into jailhouse stilettos.

I wouldn't wish rape on any man or woman. Its a sickening act, as is Mr. Allen writing about how he wished it happened to Ken Lay before his act. Hate for someone or something clouds a person's judgement. Didn't anyone at the Post think twice before allowing this to be published.

If you think Mr. Allen may not serious about what he wrote above, the conclusion of the same article eliminates any doubt.

Depraved as we may be, what we really hoped was that crimes of his super-size sort might bring him just a little chi-chi.

I hope someone gets this man some serious help like another of his Post colleagues, but first
I make Henry Allen one of our knuckleheads of the day.
