I hereby award the Idiot(s) of the Month award for July 2008 to Commissioner John Wiley Price and Judge Thomas Jones of Dallas County, Texas.
They are hereby charged with having the unmitigated audacity - by their sheer unbridled idiocy - to force me to agree with Jonah Goldberg for the first (and hopefully last) time in my life!

Jonah Goldberg: The black hole of extreme political correctness

The pertinent details:
At a recent meeting of city officials in Dallas County, Texas, a small racial brouhaha broke out. County commissioners were hashing out difficulties with way the central collections office handles traffic tickets. Commissioner Kenneth Mayfield found himself guilty of talking while white. He observed that the bureaucracy "has become a black hole" for lost paperwork.
Fellow Commissioner John Wiley Price took great offense, shouting, "Excuse me!" That office, the black commissioner explained, has become a "white hole."
Seizing on the outrage, Judge Thomas Jones demanded that Mayfield apologize for the "racially insensitive analogy," in the words of the Dallas Morning News' City Hall Blog.
Houston Chronicle science blogger Eric Berger notes that everyone should be "very glad that the central collections office has not become a white hole, a theoretical object that ejects matter from beyond its event horizon, rather than sucking it in. It wouldn't be fun for Dallas to find itself so near a quasar."
IDIOTS!!!
