Here in Da Ville we're gearing up for Thunder Over Louisville, the massive fireworks show that kicks off the two week long Kentucky Derby Festival that's a prelude to the Kentucky Oaks and Derby horse races.
Speaking of horses, let's see what fool made himself or herself look like a horse's posterior and earned this week's Shut Up Fool! Award.
There were plenty of candidates thanks to the teabagging parties, but the fool who distinguished himself is my former governor Rick Perry.

There's a reason why we didn't let Aggies near the governor's chair, and after this term an Aggie probably won't get within sniffing distance of the chair again for a while after you're mercifully gone from the governor's mansion.
We'll also have to conduct an exorcism after the way you and George W have desecrated the place since 1994.
Rick Perry, shut up fool!
