Another Round of Name That Party!!

Another year has passed, and we have another one of these stories. A politician does something so crazy, that the media just has to report on it. This year's first "crazy politician" is Christopher Schaefer of Promfret, NY. Look at the little scamp being sworn in to the town council.

Councilman Christopher Schaeffer of Pomfret, N.Y., took his oath wearing a colander on his head, paying tribute to his Pastafarian faith.

Now, I like a good funny as much as the next moron, but in all the hub-bub surrounding this guy, the mainstream media has ignored his political affiliation. The New York Daily News does finally admit that he is a Democrat in paragraph 11, right after a little information about the town.

Now, we may think this guy is a kook fringe candidate, but you would be wrong. This isn't this guy's first rodeo when it comes to running for office. In 2008, he was the Democrat endorsed candidate for State Senate.



This is from the DailyKook from back in September of 2008, I have a screenshot of it since it will probably be memoryholed.

Still, that is DailyKook, and they do have some fringe types that they love. If only there was some other event a mainstream Democrat would show up to?


Would the Obama HQ grand opening count?

Back when I was a little lad, I used to put a colander on my head in our family's kitchen.
