POL - What an idiot!

This district is 500 miles from me, and I know nothing about any of the candidates. However, with respect to Howard Kaloogian, I can only think, "Is it possible to get much more stupid than this?"

Quote:

Howard Kaloogian, a former California assemblyman, announced his candidacy during a tour of Iraq intended to show that the war was going well. He even posted a photo on his campaign Web site of what was identified as peaceful city block in Baghdad.

Internet bloggers, however, revealed that the photo was actually a street in Istanbul, Turkey, where Kaloogian also stopped on the trip. The photo was removed from the site.

I though this line from the yahoo article was amusing:

Quote:

The crowded field includes former NFL player Scott Turner; a California highway patrolman; a math teacher; and a Hawaiian-shirt wearing Libertarian who had called for the overthrow of the Mexican government.

Possibly the most interventionist Libertarian I've ever heard of...
