LOL Bachmann named one of Esquire's "10 Worst Members of Congress."
Dated Oct. 15, so this is very recent:

Rep. Michele Bachmann (R), Minnesota
One gets the impression that if, in the name of "traditional values," Bachmann could rescind the vote for women, she would. Her vacant, wild eyes recall a doomsday prophet, or one of Charlie Manson's girls. Equal parts religious hack and party hack, she's got spunk and not much else.

Bonus: Lieberman is no. 1:

Inherent in politics is the fact that someone always loses. Some lose gracefully, some lose poorly, and, as in the case of Joe Lieberman, some lose their minds. Since being defeated by an antiwar candidate in the Democratic primary in 2006, Lieberman (who was subsequently reelected as an Independent) has pursued his campaign of revenge against his former party, thinly disguised as an act of principle, replete with the quavering sanctimony that no country should have to put up with from anyone, much less from this small man.

5. That was quite entertaining.
And there were a few Dems in there, as well (and rightfully so, in my opinion).

11. Why isn't Tom ("Let's write software to flip the S. Florida votes") Feeney on this list?
Any 10 Worst list without him is poorly selected.
