Steve King is among the many extremists who want to build a wall along the Mexican border. This makes him a Dickhead, sure, but Dickhead of the Week? What separates the good representative from Iowa's 5th District from other proponents of fence-building?

Well, Stevie wants to build an electric fence, because "we do this with livestock all the time."

Yes, that comment makes Stevie "I Heart Sheep" King Dickhead of the Week. Oh, and I'm sure that's not what he meant.

Runner up, by the way, is Pete Coors, who was arrested on a DUI charge. He's another right-wing Dickhead, who ran for Senate two years ago (and lost, thankfully), and whose company is doing a stellar job of fucking up Colorado's environment. On the other hand, his name is on a really nice stadium in Denver, home of the Colorado Rockies. Lay off the Coors before driving home, Coors.
