House arrest might be a good place to start

THE WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD

(apologies to Keith Olbermann)

Steve Lipski

The New Jersey councilman who allegedly urinated on a crowd of concertgoers from the balcony of a Washington, D.C. nightclub swore off booze on Sunday -- two days after he was busted for the embarrassing stunt. "I've resolved not to touch alcohol again," two-term Jersey City councilman Steve Lipski told the Fox 5 New York. He went on to say that the incident was "deeply humiliating, very embarrassing" and troubling," the Daily News reported. The 44-year-old Democratic councilman refused to admit to the lewd stunt.... "I can't comment on that," he told Fox5 News. "I'm going to continue to do all the good things, and I'm not going to let this overshadow me.".... Lipski was in D.C. to see a Grateful Dead tribute band and was spotted relieving himself by one of the club's staffers around 9:50 p.m., club sources told the Daily News. He was charged with simple assault.

When y'all voted for change on Tuesday, I'll bet none of y'all had ANY idea that this was part of the package. It's not exactly news that politicians and liquor don't mix, but peeing on people really doesn't seem to hold a lot of potential for influencing constituents.

VOTE LIPSKI: YOU'LL END UP WET AND SMELLING LIKE PEE!!

Probably not what Steve Lipski had in mind for a re-election campaign, but sometimes history finds you, knowhutimean?? Then again, Lipski's future opponents are going to find themselves presented with a goldmine of material to use for television and print ads? And it's not as if Lipski has set the bar very high.

VOTE COWZNOFSKI: I WON'T PEE ON YOU!!

Then again, this is New Jersey we're talking about here; it's quite possible that this sort of thing won't even raise any eyebrows. Truth be told, there are those who would argue that politicians have been metaphorically pissing on their constituents since the dawn of time. All Lipski has done is to take things one step farther.

Eww...I feel like I need another shower....
