I'm not picking on Rendell, but he has a strange sense of "humor":

Rendell sends 'head' to lawmaker to get tax vote

HARRISBURG - Gov. Ed Rendell decapitated a Rep. Tim Solobay "bobblehead" doll and sent the head to the Washington County Democrat on the House floor because Solobay wouldn't vote for Rendell's proposed natural gas extraction tax.

Solobay said today he opened an envelope delivered by a House page last week that contained the doll's head along with a note from Rendell urging his support for the bill.

"It definitely was a joke," Solobay said. "It was a big hit on the House floor when it happened. The governor was attempting to play the "Godfather." They didn't have a fish head to send over wrapped in newspaper so they sent (the head of) a bobbledoll."

"Yeah, it was fun," Rendell said heading into budget negotiations today with legislative leaders. "I always like to inject humor into these situations."

Republicans are not amused! More at link:

1. What is more perplexing

is the fact that there IS a Rep. Tim Solobay bobblehead doll.

IMO some more twisted examples are in the article.

It's not like there would be a huge demand for them! LOL
