Lieberman, After Eating His Cake Too, Gets It In The Back
Friday August 8, 2008
U.S. Sen. Joe Lieberman, the fair-weather Democrat, had an early snack time this week. He was in his usual seat aboard his buddy John McCain's Straight Talk Express, when the bus got involved in a Florida fender bender.
"The Buzz," the political blog of the St. Petersburg Times, reported yesterday that the Wednesday morning collision sent a McCain's staffer's birthday cake smooshing into Connecticut's junior senator.
It was chocolate, with "thick white frosting," The Buzz reported.
"At the moment of impact I was sitting in a booth ... right in front of counter right where the cake was. The cake went all over me. That was the end of my suit,'' he said at the time, "I always wondered whether sometime a political protester would hit me with a pie in the face. I never thought a friendly birthday cake would attack me from the rear."
Clearly, he's not making enough public appearances back home in Connecticut, where he could hold a sizable fund-raiser among state Democrats who'd love to pie him, or cake him as the case may be, for crimes against the party.
