Fox & Friends dunce, Steve Doocy, won the bronze on Wednesday's Worst Person in the World segment on Countdown for accusing the librul media of falsely reporting that the U.S. is on the verge of a recession in a plot to get a Democrat into the White House, when a right wing guest who appeared on his own show laughed at him and told him that the idea of a recession wasn't that far-fetched.

Rush Limbaugh garnered the runner up spot for saying Hillary Clinton supporters were feminists who had all had multiple abortions that had been married two or three times -- when he himself has been married three times and has NO children.

Top honors went to former Bush Press Secretary, Tony Snow, for conflating Senator Barack Obama's "present" votes while in the Illinois Senate with his voting record in the U.S. Senate during an interview on Dennis Miller's radio show. When faced with the fact that those present votes didn't actually happen in the U.S. Senate, Snow said he actually did it in both places.

Olbermann: "There you have it, Tony Snow, having retired from being George Bush's Press Secretary, now lying recreationally to strangers and passers by."
