Claims to fame: Anti-gay crusader; alleged sexual harasser

Moral apex: While an economics professor at North Texas State University, was accused by three female students of sexually inappropriate behavior. One was upset enough to quit the school.

One thing’s clear: He wasn’t averse to sleeping with his students; one became his wife.

Memorable quote:

“Yes, I am Dick Armey. And if there is a dick army, Barney Frank would want to join up.”

— Referring to gay congressman Barney Frank,
whom Armey called “Barney Fag”

Suggested Bible reading for Mr. Armey:

Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.

— Psalm 50:19
