It Doesn’t Say Anything Here About Rubber Chickens
“[Nevada] election officials on Friday added chicken suits to the list of banned items after weeks of ridicule directed at Republican Senate candidate Sue Lowden… Under the new rule, chicken costumes will be banned along with political buttons, shirts, hats and signs within 100 feet of polling places.” [AP/MSNBC, via PourMeCoffee]
What about buckets of KFC?
@ManchuCandidate: I really have to wonder how this came about — I just don’t see election folk doing that on their own, without some prompting from Chicken Lady’s campaign. And if so, the campaign just extended the meme another news cycle.
And allowed the AP to add a detail I didn’t know: “millionaire casino executive and former beauty queen”. The latter’s just gravy, but of course a Millionaire Casino Executive would suggest we go back to the simpler ways of bartering.
So hey, lay down a few chickens next time you’re playing craps at the Sahara. Tell the pit boss Sue said it was okay.
@nojo:
Guess they don’t teach beauty queens to stop fucking that chicken (0r so to speak) when the feathers fly.
She really is making an utter ass of herself.
