He must have been a Democrat. *Gross-out Darwin award winner*
Overzealous zookeeper Friedrich Riesfeldt (Paderborn,
Germany) fed his constipated elephant Stefan 22 doses of animal laxative
and more than a bushel of berries, figs and prunes before the plugged-up
pachyderm finally let it fly, and suffocated the keeper under 200
pounds of poop! Investigators say ill-fated Friedrich, 46, was
attempting to give the ailing elephant an olive oil enema when the
relieved beast unloaded on him. "The sheer force of the elephant's
unexpected defecation knocked Mr. Riesfeldt to the ground, where he
struck his head on a rock and lay unconscious as the elephant continued
to evacuate his bowels on top of him," said flabbergasted Paderborn
police detective Erik Dern. With no one there to help him, he lay under
all that dung for at least an hour before a watchman came along, and
during that time he suffocated. It seems to be just one of those freak
accidents that proves that "Shit Happens."

5. D'oh!
I missed that. It would be like a Republican to kill someone that way, but I just don't associate elephants with Republicans.

Elephants mourn their dead.

7. Doesn't work.
Most Rs continued to vote for * even after years of being shat upon.

All we can say for sure is that the victim wasn't a millionaire.

4. He cared about the animal.
A necrocon would have just shot the poor beast.
