Say we wanted to have a poll for the title subject. Who would have to be on the slate to make it a believable poll? Only one restriction, please. Must be alive as of the time you put the name down. Add to this list if you will: Sarah Palin Ann Coulter Lindsay Lohan Any Kardashian ---

Must be alive as of the time you put the name down. > > Add to this list if you will: > > Sarah Palin > Ann Coulter > Lindsay Lohan > Any Kardashian So – let me be sure I understand the question. “Least favorite human being” is the category to which you seek nominations. And somehow Pol Pot; Heinrich Himmler and Adolf Eichmann; Josef Stalin; Lawrence Brewer, John King, and Shawn Berry (dragging death of James Byrd); [Dean Corll](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dean_Corll); Idi Amin; Tomás de Torquemada; or Rasputin never came to mind? But Sarah Palin did? Palin is not a saint, perhaps, but her worst crime is probably being dumber than a box of dirt. Ann Coulter is full of hate, but so far as I know, she did not ever inflict strappado on another human being. Lindsay Lohan? She’s a pitiable addict who has a gift for acting and an inability to control her addictions that means she’s thrown away the kind of career that others would kill for – but Lohan hasn’t killed anyone, not even herself (yet). Seriously. ---

Nancy Grace - she’s truly my least favorite female - even less of a favorite than the OCD control freak I used to work with. ---

Phyllis Schlafly? Bricker, it’s FEMALES. I’m not a huge fan of Hilary, either. ---

I want to say Tammy Faye Baker but I just realized she is dead. She must be in heaven now, pointing out the bad people for God. There must be hundreds of similar female televangelists that I would count as worse than anyone on the OP’s list - those are just unpleasant personalities and most of them aren’t bad to look at at least. ---

I think Casey Kasem’s wife (whatshername from Cheers) just made the list. ---

Leona Helmsley. Dead, yes, but likely the biggest bitch in hell. Jan Brewer. Many would point to Nancy Pelosi. ---

Jenny McCarthy. Also, the Lea Thompson who is the TV journalist, NOT the actress of _Back to the Future_ and _Switched at Birth_, who was at the genesis of the modern anti-vax movement with a TV special in 1982 called _[Vaccine Roulette](http://www.vaccinetimes.com/april-is-autism-awareness-month/)_; that was 16 years before Andrew Wakefield published his _Lancet_ article, and Jenny McCarthy was in the fifth grade. ---

That’s one odd side effect of millennia of oppressing women that I never though of: They’ve never had a fair chance at being despots, mass-murderers or generally awful. I think Thatcher is the best I can come up with. Here’s to a future of women getting to be assholes on the world stage on an equal level with men! ---
