I need the equivalent of the wonderful Italian word, "stupidario"

The BBC thinks that the most important and interesting piece of news today is Naomi Campbell lying on oath at the International Criminal Court. Until now it had paid no attention whatever to the terrible litany of crimes for which the monstrous Charles Taylor is being tried. Is any comment necessary? And oh, they did not even hint that she was lying on oath, although she certainly was.

I've been shocked at how much traction she's getting, in the court and the media, as the "star witness" in Taylor's trial. I'm no fan of Taylor's, but are they so desperate to get him dead to rights that they're willing to not only encourage/demand/allow (whichever) perjury... but **obvious** perjury at that?
