Belgium Politics - the Promise of Sex

As the USA continues on it's never ending path of dull commercials, primaries, promises and lectures, as we find our eyes glazing over at yet another political broadcast, or campaign announcement, how many of us are left wondering just how other countries handle their campaigns?

Well Belgium certainly had a different way of handling it.

During the race for the June 2007 elections there one candidate, Tania Derveaux, a leading party member for the NEE party (a party/movement actually trying to get people not to vote, according to their website -"NEE works around political awareness and offers voters in Belgium the option to vote 'NEE' if they find that none of the parties deserve their vote. NEE votes would simply go to empty seats in parliament, resulting in a loss of income and power among the other parties and giving the voters the power to sanction politicians if needed." ) came up with another way of drawing attention to her movement's beliefs.

How, might you ask, did Tania, an attractive young woman, plan on doing this?

By offering Oral Sex to anyone who promised to mark their ballots in favor of NEE.

Blasted across her website is the promise to give 400,000 sessions of oral sex, either in real life or via a computer simulation game called Second Life.

Things that make you go hmmmm.
