Here are the current nominees for the 2006 LGF Idiotarian and Anti-Idiotarian Awards:

IDIOTARIAN (The “Fiskie”)

John F. Kerry
Keith Olbermann
Reuters/AP
Kofi Annan
Cynthia McKinney

ANTI-IDIOTARIAN (The “Oriana”)

John Bolton
Ayaan Hirsi Ali
Robert Spencer
Christopher Hitchens
Mark Steyn
Oriana Fallaci
Australian PM John Howard
Pope Benedict
Wafa Sultan

I tried to narrow down both lists to the most popular nominations based on our previous threads. This is not a topic to vote for your choice, but instead to make a case if you believe a worthy person/entity has been missed, for either list.

Note: Although he received an enormous number of nominations for the Idiotarian award, Jimmy Carter was our first Fiskie winner, and as such cannot be nominated again according to the highly official rules.

The voting will start tomorrow, and will be open until midnight, December 31.

UPDATE at 12/27/06 11:26:56 am:

Previous winners of the Idiotarian Award (the “Fiskie”):
2002 - Jimmy Carter
2003 - Rachel Corrie
2004 - Michael Moore
2005 - Cindy Sheehan
