As the year draws close, newspapers, magazines and TV stations unfailingly announce their man of the year, woman of the year, Indian of the year, product of the year, etc. So for Time magazine, 2011 was the year of the protester. For India Today, its newsmaker was Anna Hazare, as he was for NDTV 24×7. For The Week, it will be some unsung hero. Etcetera.
There is no reason to doubt these fine editorial choices, duly audited by Ernst & Young, PricewaterHouse Coopers and other fine accounting firms. But the world is not all full of heroes. The reason we have a man of the year, woman of the year, etc, is because several worthies paved the way for these worthy souls by gladly voting themselves out.
Call them the villains of the year. Or A-holes Of The Year*. Or whatever. It is they who enable our world to get its rightful share of heroes each year by their execrable behaviour, by their obnoxious conduct, by being what they are: A-holes. And you find them everywhere: in politics, business, sport, cinema, media, everywhere.
So, tongue firmly in churumuri-lined cheek, let us give them their due. Let them know we care. Let them know that their efforts do not go unremembered, unrecognised or unrewarded. Let them know we would be a poorer world without them. Let them know who they are.
Who, therefore, is your A-hole Of The Year*?

I would go for Sunny Leone.
just saw new videos released even when she is inside Big Boss’ house.
looks like she is promoted by future caretaker Mahesh’s Butt.
Kapil sibal
Digvijay Singh
P Chidamabaram
Manmohan Singh
Nice concept!
Digvijay Singh- for shooting his mouth off second day and seeing an RSS hand even in Congress hand. He would be the real A* Hole of the year.
Sri Sri Ravishankar for Jan Lokpal movement while sitting on an encroached land.
Swami Agnivesh
1. Digvijay Singh would win with a huge margin

Digvijay Singh
Manish Tewary … Congress spokesmen
Kapil Sibal
Yeddy
Diggy
Kapi (sibal)
Afridi
National: MMS – for his glorious inaction
State: BSY – for his shamelessness
.

Phew, I don’t have all night!
Problem of plenty here. Too many candidates, too little space to type… with all the dignitaries mentioned above our fearless leaders in Karnataka find no mention…so I am going local and nominating Kumaranna and Yeddi Uncle…
Diggy-hands down:-)
All those journos who equated mahatma gandhi with anna hazare.
Diggy Raja & Chidu
Anna Hazare
Top spot shared by SONIA GANDHI an RAHUL GANDHI. For the following reasons:
1. Becoming beneficiaries of multiple billion-dollar scams but escaping unscathed. Does anybody here believe that they did not benefit from the multi-billion dollar scams that came to light in 2011, or that such things could have happened without their knowledge?
2. Orchestrating the weakening and subsequent failure of the LokPal bill in parliament.
There are of course lots and lots of others, but the gold medal surely goes to these two shameless 3rd class people.
You shouldn’t even be asking this question when the answer is very well evident. Rahul Gandhi wins it hands down!!!
Diggy the joker, Sibal the more talk, less work, Yeddy the destroyer, Laloo, the buffoon, Mulayam the joker, Karuna the crook master, Voters who elect the (known) criminals, Voters who do not vote, All those responsible for not able to give a stable and strong government in Karnataka (whatever party – after all they are all same), Bangalore traffic controllers, Motor bikers who drive on footpath, carwallas who honk, honk, honk and finally WE THE PEOPLE who are like R.K.Laxman’s common man.
Wow! Churmuri seems to attract a sizeable “chaddi” crowd. Agreed Congress politicos should make the list. But here are some chaddi-buddies that you’ve missed.
Baba Ramdev
Gadkari (man with a golden sword, land rover and a bag of cash, afraid of Yeddi)
Yeddi & Family
Yeddi & Govt
Eshwarappa
Advani (for his nth rate nth grade flop Yathra, afraid of Yeddi)
SRK
Kejriwal and Kiran Bedi
Modi (will be Eternal A Hole (a la Kim il Sung))
