And the award goes to…

NEW ORLEANS – Louisiana’s governor and a U.S. senator joined Friday in calling for the ouster of a local official who refused to marry an interracial couple, saying his actions clearly broke the law.

Keith Bardwell, a white justice of the peace in Tangipahoa Parish in the southeastern part of the state, refused to issue a marriage licenseearlier this month to Beth Humphrey, who is white, and Terence McKay, who is black. His refusal has prompted calls for an investigation or resignation from civil and constitutional rights groups and the state’s Legislative Black Caucus.

Republican Gov. Bobby Jindal said in a statement a nine-member commission that reviews lawyers and judges in the state should investigate.

“Disciplinary action should be taken immediately — including the revoking of his license,” Jindal said.

Bardwell did not return calls left on his answering machine Friday.

Bardwell has said he always asks if a couple is interracial and, if they are, refers them to another justice of the peace. Bardwell said no one had complained in the past and he doesn’t marry the couples because he’s worried about their children’s futures.

“Perhaps he’s worried the kids will grow up and be president,” said Bill Quigley, director of the Center for Constitutional Rights and Justice, referring to President Barack Obama, the son of a black father from Kenyaand a white mother from Kansas.

Bardwell, a Republican, has served as justice of peace for 34 years. He said he has run without opposition each time, but had decided earlier not to run again. His current term expires Dec. 31, 2014.

You know what I like about this issue?  It’s not Republican.  It’s not Democratic.  It’s not Tea-baggy.  It’s so simple, and clear it’s ridiculous.

This guy is an a-hole and deserves to know it.  Fiercely and loudly.

Whether he’s getting his groceries, filling up his gas tank, going to a movie or simply walking his dog in the park, people should walk up to this guy and tell him he’s a d*ck.

For the rest of his days, he should have people remind him that he’s a relic of a bygone time, a shadow of a human being, an ignorant, intolerant bastard who needs to have a little bit of misery sprinkled in his every day life.

That he’s been allowed power and the lie that he’s somehow right for this long is a crime against Karma.  It’s time for Karma to be a boomerang.

Don’t hurt him.

No violence.

But if you’re near him, and you make him miserable, gold star for you.
