Illinois Republican Joe Walsh, who is in a court battle to explain why he is $117,000 behind in child support payments, received an award yesterday from the arch-conservative Family Research Council, for being the most "pro family" member of the US HR:

Rep. Walsh lauded by group for being pro-family, though accused of owing child support - Chicago Sun-Times

Who needs Comedy Channel, when we have today's GOP?

Thats not all, this numbnut opted out of his healthcare plan (Obamacare..) and his wife needs an operation.

Quote:
Every single House Republican voted to repeal the health care law last month.

“I can simply, honestly say that this is going to impact my wife and I to a fairly serious degree, like it would any average American out there,†said first-time Rep. Joe Walsh of Illinois.

Walsh’s wife has a pre-existing condition and will need a procedure in the coming months, but because he declined federal benefits, they’re paying for it out of pocket. Meanwhile, Walsh is contributing to a health savings account to cover his expenses.

More proof that teabaggers/hard right conservatives have a serious mental disorder.
