Birthday cake hurled onto Lieberman


A little more to that Miami traffic accident yesterday involving Joe Lieberman aboard the Straight Talk Express: Turns out the impact sent a staffer's chocolate birthday cake with thick white frosting smack into the Connecticut senator

"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, apologizing for the lack of suit for a taping of "Political Connections" on Bay News 9. "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."

Lieberman, who might just be spending more time in Florida than Barack Obama Florida co-chair and MD homeowner Robert Wexler, also brushed off Wexler's suggestion that he's a different person than he was seven years ago.

11. He's lucky it wasn't McBush's birthday cake.
Imagine how many birthday candles that would have on it. The Straight Talk Express would have looked like the Hindenburg.

14. You'd think that one of our leaders would pack an extra suit.
What does he do when he craps his pants, no plan B?

19. Ironic, considering "Let them eat cake!" could be the Republican motto.
Yep. Joe's been officially initiated into the Republican party now.

:rofl:
