The Asshat Thread

Also, his lawyers for arguing that not only was his child rape sort of ok, because he only banged 16 year olds that looked like 13 year olds, not actual 13 year olds. Oh, and being 'hypersexual' after losing weight as a defense of his pervness.

Cosby, Fogle, Sheen and Duggar. Surely we can stretch this into a Scummy Pervs of 2015 bracket?

Gotta be Cosby hands down since apparently his scummy pervness goes back several decades.

They're all despicable human beings, but I'm sorry.....child pornography and having sex w/ children is the lowest of the low.

My bad - I would have to agree. And while what Sheen did was also despicable, what woman in their right mind would have unprotected sex w/him knowing his history.

Just shows how awful they are. We can't agree on who's the worse.

Not allowing imported drugs is such a bendover to pharma.

Amen to that. If the FDA allowed far cheaper versions of that drug in the country, that guy would be financially screwed.

His company posted a third quarter loss of $14 million. Screwing investors as well as sick people? It doesn't say that but would anyone be shocked if he was?

It'd be a pretty terrible bracket. I dont really know the Dugger guy, but I'd have a hard time picking the worst between the sheer volume of Cosby drugging women for decades, Sheen knowingly banging people while HIV+, and Jared *asking his friend for secret cameras in her kids' rooms*. the scummy asshattery is stunning.

At least Fogle is going to have a terrible time in prison. I don't think that'll happen to either of the Hollywood guys.

Stan Kroenke deserves a dishonorable mention in this thread.

John Stossel. Every Christmas season, he goes out and pretends to be a homeless person and panhandles for an hour. The takeaway he pushes is that most panhandlers are "scammers" and not "for real" and we are enabling them if we give them any money. Merry Christmas.

Cut him some slack. Afterall, It is Movember.

If Jesus were not the Son of God, he would have been ruined by those gifts from the Three Wise Men. That's why that story is so uplifting.

Hey, speaking of handouts, did you know that Woodrow Wilson argued that that's exactly what those silly slaves were looking for?
