Your Nutty Congressman of the Day
Yesterday it was the Texan Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson and her letter to Kofi Annan asking for the UN observers at the November presidential elections.
Today's winner is Congressman Jim McDermott from Washington state, who indulged his Indian audience in New Dehli with his update on the "October Surprise" conspiracy. McDermott observed that "[t]here are already rumours circulating that Osama bin Laden is being held somewhere already and it's only that they are trying to decide what day they should bring him out." God help the Bush Administration: if bin Laden is still at large comes the election they will be accused of dropping the ball on the war on terror and being too distracted by the side-show in Iraq. If they do manage to capture Osama sometime over the next few months they will be accused of cynical timing to assist them in "stealing" yet another election.
