Yeah, it’s sad to see what’s going on here. Basically any jackass can get on the ballot with 3500 bucks and 65 signatures. So we are going to see hundreds of names on the ballot.

I’m particularly pissed off at the local news media with their tongue in cheek “human interest stories” about the idiots “running”. An 18 yo idiot who lives with daddy, and a slutty little brainless harlot selling thongs come to mind. I’m sure there are dozens more.

I’ve been meaning to start a pit thread about these assholes and the brain-dead reporters that actually write up stories about them. But a better pit thread would be devoted to the screwed up recall laws here.

Sigh. Californians deserve every bit of ridicule they are getting.

Flynt has so got my vote. **

And, Springer himself is supposedly running for Congress (I think) in Ohio.

This is truly like the bread and circuses in ancient Rome. The latter-day American equivalents are McDonald’s (bread) and Jerry Springer (circuses).
