Porn Star Suffers from Electoral Dysfunction

The former porn star known as Dolly Buster is asking the German city of Wesel not to vote for her this week after accidentally registering as a candidate for upcoming city council elections.

The 39-year-old, whose given name is Nora Baumberger, was informed of her candidacy while driving through a rain storm on the autobahn on Thursday.

When she received the news, Baumberger said she “almost drove into the guard rail from shock.”

“I’ve been nominated by a group whose name I’ve never even heard of,” she said, adding that the scandal could ruin her reputation after spending several years trying to establish herself as a serious artist. “I’m really irritated,” she added.

On Thursday Baumberger’s name appeared on Wesel’s online candidate list, run by a local independent voting alliance called the UWW, as a candidate for the Obrighoven-Lackhausen district. Her husband and porn producer Dino Baumberger was also listed as a city council candidate in the area near Düsseldorf.

The pair apparently had a misunderstanding with the head of the UWW, Baumberger’s husband said.

“She told me that the UWW needed members. I wanted to do her a favour,” he said, adding that he and his wife had unwittingly signed a form that was actually an application for candidacy.

“That was dumb,” his wife said.

Pretty telling tale of the state of politicians when even whores don't want to be associated with them.

Yeah, but sometimes, the whores will let you kiss them first.

Not at all, with politicians the person being screwed definitely will not be the one that gets paid.

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
