Dumbest column of 2014 has already been written. Richard Cohen hardest hit.

Yesterday was 2014?s one week anniversary. Did you celebrate? We’d sure did with cake and pudding and a Brazilian wax because that is the traditional gift of one week anniversaries. So far this year has been pretty swell if you disregard the fact that great portions of the country have become ice-choked hellscapes, which has nothing to do with climate change by the way, and also if you are not Chris Christie whose New Year’s resolution to shed some pounds staffers should begin any minute now.

So we look forward to many fun and interesting articles and posts and twitter-twattings to come from our conservative brethren and sisthren in the hope that they may bring us great mirth and LOLing at their lack of self awareness and ‘facts’ and common sense and such and such. Under normal circumstances we would expect the worst of the worst to come from the Washington Post’s Richard Cohen who reported last year (Exclusive! Must credit Richard Cohen) that slavery wasn’t near as fun (steady work, lots of fresh air, plenty of exercise, free room & board) as we had all been taught in our failing schools. Also, too, there was that time when Cohen declared that looking at mixed-race couples is the new syrup of ipecac, which is good news to couples with newborns. Unless, of course, the couple is mixed-race.

Having said that, our first entry for Contractually Obligated Weekly Column Someone Actually Wrote That Everyone Is All WTF?, Are You Serious? Really? belongs to S.E Cupp of the New York Daily News and CNN’s Crossfire, which is the least watched reality show on teevee outside of Who Wants A Barium Enema? Cupp, whom you may understandably mistake for Elisabeth Hasselbeck in glasses, has made a career out of being a perky contrarian (she’s complex! she’s wacky! she’s unpredictable!); an atheist who blames liberals for being mean to Christians even though she thinks their god is bullshit, or that time she didn’t want to clean up the BP spill because the ocean would just get dirty again anyway. That kind of stuff.

So, as we say every morning when we open up the browser to see what fresh hell the day holds for us: now what?
