THE JULY WTF AWARD GOES TO...

Jack Kevorkian

Now, just when you think you've seen it all, right? Look at some of the names of people that held or are still holding political office? Clint Eastwood, Ronald Reagan, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sonny Bono, Jesse "the Body" Ventura. You think you've seen it all?

You know you're in a bat shit crazy world when even Jack Kevorkian (the infamous "Dr. Death", named for his notoriety for doctor-assisted suicides) runs for U.S. Congress. Yes - Dr. Death is running for Congress, representing his home state of Michigan. What will this guy do when he gets in? Sponsor every bill possible to make suicide legal?

He actually managed 3200 signatures - 200 over the required 3000 needed for the Oakland County Board of Elections to give him the green light to run. And according to this story, he may have a good shot. (RSCT to the Creative Minority Report - btw, we welcome CMR to the CV Definitive Blogroll!)

What is this world coming to?

Peace,
BMP
