Nader Hit With Pie During Calif. Event
SAN FRANCISCO - 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.
Some Democrats blame Nader for helping put President Bush (news - web sites) in the White House by siphoning off votes from Vice President Al Gore in the 2000 election. Before the pie incident, Nader said California voters should take advantage of the unprecedented gubernatorial recall. He said Camejo understands the state's fiscal crisis better than other candidates.

The cream pie assault... can the guy even be brought up on charges? I mean really. Do you suppose Nader would actually fill out a complaint saying "Yes officer, a cream pie. It probably stained my tie. And by the taste, it was real cream too, not my preferred soy whip. Assault, I tell ya. Physical assault, lock 'em up!"

You could move the governor mansion to the Ghirardelli's factory.
