Yes, you heard me right. A bonafide clown has been elected to Brazil's legislative branch. Not sure of his pratfall-er, platform.

In fact, he got MORE VOTES THAN ANYONE ELSE. (Hasn't Brasilia ever heard of "tea parties"????)

Of course, they need to be sure he can read and right first. DU should be proud to have one of their own in Congress, even if it's a soccer mad socialist state south of San Antonio.

SAO PAULO – Grumpy the clown won election in a laugher, getting more votes than any other candidate for Brazil's Congress. Now he has to prove that he can read and write.

The Sao Paulo Electoral Court held a closed-door exam for the clown turned congressman-elect on Thursday to determine if he meets a constitutional mandate that federal lawmakers be literate.
