Heads Roll In San Fran
This just in -- a San Francisco man's recent online stunt puts him on top for the 2004 Most Outrageously Insane Idea To Get Elected Award.
WHAT kind of person fakes his own beheading at the hands of the most brutal Islamic terrorist operating in Iraq, tapes it, shows it to the world over the internet and then admits it was all a hoax when his mum blows the whistle on him?
Benjamin Vanderford is a 22-year-old musician and computer geek and thought the stunt would get him enough publicity to secure his election into the exciting world of San Francisco municipal politics.
How in the world did Vanderford figure this would help him get elected?

He was doing this to show the atrocities in Iraq. He was trying to prove a point that the U.S. should not have invaded. He was using his head...

I am from San Francisco, and someone that young and stupid does not need to be making decisions for me.

I thought Kerry's love affair with McCain was bad enough, but this is crazy.
