PROOF OF FRAUD! and around the world news

Exposing the largest conspiracy of voter fraud in American electoral history, Joe Lieberman, former member of the Democratic party, announced that he will seek an investigation into the senate primary election of August 8, 2006.  
An army of political operatives, possibly as many as 146,000, masquerading as "voting citizens" infiltrated the Democratic party, and threw the election to an inexperienced underdog.  DC insiders say, "This criminal conspiracy strikes at the heart of our democracy."  If left unchallenged, incumbent politicians will soon be in danger of having to represent their constituents.  What kind of country do we live in when entrenched insiders can be deposed by petty thugs who seek to manipulate our democracy by voting?  Says Joe: "For the sake of our state, our country and my party, I cannot and will not let that result stand."  Apparently, the FBI has already been contacted.  

In other news, Connecticut for Lieberman party insiders are questioning whether Joe Lieberman can win the party's nomination for senate.  While internal polling shows Lieberman ahead when pitted against "Generic Bush-Kissing Asshole," "Any Other Moron" had a suprisingly strong showing, claiming 42% support.  Long time party officials fear that if "Any Other Moron" is replaced on the ballot with an actual moron, Joementum will fail to live up to expectations.  

Also in Connecticut politics, rumors abound that debt huckster Walter Lieberman will submit the required 7,500 signatures necessary to be placed on the ballot for US Senator from Connecticut.  Walter, known about the state as being irresponsible with money, wants to be elected Connecticut's next senator, in order to enable the president to "piss away another $500,000,000,000 on an unwinnable occupation."  If he has his way, his new party, Lieberman for Connecticut, may well share the November ballot with the Republican and Democratic nominees, and various other long-shot independent candidate wackos.  

On a more serious note, may I say that I am so proud of my home state of Connecticut.  Here's how our win is playing in the international press:

Who doesnt love Canadians?  The Toronto Star leads with "Democrats turf Lieberman"  Yeah.. in your face.

The BBC is measured with "Leading Democrat Loses Nomination" and follows with the prophetic "Shock loss shows US anti-war mood"

The New Zealand Herald has yet to update their story "Lieberman trails in Democratic race"  but they are 7 hours behind.  Or is that 17 hours ahead.  Well.. either way, they are on the other side of the world, and the internet tubes can only go so far.

I spent a year studying at Trinity College in Dublin.  Its always nice to see the Irish take on American politics.  Never melodramatic, the Irish Examiner says, "Accusations fly as Lieberman faces political MELTDOWN.

And the International Herald Tribune, "U.S. Senator who supported Iraq war defeated in tight race"
