Schmuck of the Week: Jim Gooch, Jr.

This week's schmuck of the weeek is none other than Kentucky State House Representative Jim Gooch, Jr. for filing 2008 House Bill 468, which as states in the official text of the bill:
Amend KRS 6.611 to add editorial writers and cartoonists to the definition of legislative agents; delete editorial statements from the list of activities that are not considered lobbying.
For that and his global defiance of the fact that global warming actually exists...we think he's in the first stage of a 12-stage program and he's at the denial stage.

Runners up include the following state reps:
Russ Mobley (R-51) for voting against 2008 House Joint Resolution 6
Dottie Sims (D-19) for not voting at all on 2008 House Joint Resolution 6
Ancel Smith (D-65) for not voting at all on 2008 House Joint Resolution 6
Brandon Smith (R-84) for not voting at all on 2008 House Joint Resolution 6

2008 House Joint Resolution 6 passed in the house on a 94-1 vote.
