Drunken Lieberman shocks convention


St. Paul Mn. AP: A visibly drunken and salacious Joe Lieberman stunned the crowd here last night at the Republican National convention. After stumbling to the podium and clumsily adjusting a hearing aid, the Senator from Connecticut began an attack on Barack Obama. The direction of his speech however, veered almost immediately into revealing details of a 1979 "Orgy of the little people" in Pittsburgh, in which he took part in group sex with a professional wrestling troupe of male midgets.

Seen in the above photo, Senator Lieberman reminisces about wrestler Lil' Rambone of the Gay Caballeros, and how "he was just about this tall you see, I think you all get the picture". Liebermans handlers moved then to clear the stage, but were driven back when Lieberman took up the convention's giant gavel and leveled a blow to a young intern, severely injuring her. The crowd at this point erupted in chaos, provoking security to mace and taze several members of the Florida delegation, including Bush family member LaFonda Washington-Bush. President George Bush is said to have watched the events unfold on closed-circuit tv, from a bunker under the convention floor, and to have remarked "this is better than Survivor!"

The disruption ended with Lieberman urinating in a potted palm near the western edge of the stage, and then collapsing unconscious. He was dragged quickly behind a curtain. Neither the Lieberman or Republican camps had any comment.

unfortunately, mr treehorns recollection is not entirely accurate. most notably, it was not a collection of little people, but my kindergarden fieldtrip to the pittsburg museum of science and industry. we were indeed little, but seeing lieberman at the convention brought flashbacks of balloons and brandy.
