Herschel Walker
Today's conservative barf bag award goes to Hershel Walker, once a running back for Dallas and now running for the senate seat in Georgia. Walker married his college sweetheart, Cindy DeAngelis Grossman, in 1983. They have a son named Christian. After 19 years of marriage, they divorced in 2002. In filing for divorce the year before, Grossman accused Walker of "physically abusive and extremely threatening behavior." After the divorce, she told the media that, during their marriage, Walker pointed a pistol at her head and said: "I'm going to blow your fucking brains out." She also said he had used knives to threaten her. Once he held a razor to her throat in bed and said repeatedly that he was going to kill her. In 2005, a restraining order was imposed on Walker regarding Grossman, after Grossman's sister stated in an affidavit that Walker told her "unequivocally that he was going to shoot my sister Cindy and her [new] boyfriend in the head."
Walker has repeatedly claimed that he graduated from the University of Georgia in the top 1% of his class. Not true. But what made him a shoo-in for the award is that he is endorsed for the senate by Kumquat Caligula.
Never ever underestimate the malignance of conservatives.
