RALPH NADER GETS CREAMED



Until today, I wasn't aware of anyone from the "progressive" left who had been hit in the face with a pie (via the AP):

SAN FRANCISCO - Former Green Party presidential candidate Ralph Nader (news - web sites) was hit with a pie as he endorsed party member Peter Camejo for California governor.



The show of political support at the Green Party's San Francisco headquarters took an unscripted turn Tuesday when a prankster burst into the room and slammed a cream pie into Nader's face. The culprit fled through a side door.



Camejo later suggested the pie assault was the work of Democrats who may feel threatened by the Green Party's growing popularity.

Photos of the "unscripted turn" will be posted as soon as possible.



UPDATE: As promised, here's a pic (via the San Francisco Chronicle):
