Karl Rove
The votes are in, and The Konformist readers have spoken. Karl Rove is your choice for the 2005 Beast of the Year - a choice that is well deserved.
As it has been the previous four years, the choice of Beast of the Year was directly linked to the Bush Kreeps. But this year, the link is even stronger, as there arguably would be no Bush Kreeps without Rove himself, often described as "Bush's Brain" for being the mastermind behind his political strategy.
The bad news: Bush's Brain was pretty smart in 2004, combining a sleazy campaign of smearing John Kerry and exploiting the tragedy of 9/11 to make the presidential election close enough for Shrub to steal it again. The only bright side is that with Bush still in the White House, they have no one to blame but themselves for the failed Iraqi Quagmire and the bankrupting of the USA. Not that this will stop them from trying. Furthermore, with evidence in the Wilson-Plame Treasongate investigation all leading to Rove as a primary culprit, it may be only a matter of time before Mr. Smarty-Pants finds himself frog-marched into prison. Stay tuned...
Runner-Up:
In the unlikely event that Karl can no longer fill his duties as Beast of the Year (such as doing something shockingly decent), Condoleezza Rice is ready to take over the crown. Rest assured the BOTY trophy is in good hands either way, as Condi has been a prime beast herself.
In any case, we salute you all, Karl & Condi. Congratulations, and keep up the great work!!!
