Attack of the Giant Chickens

By Sniffles

Oh, this is terrific.

The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee is having fun with that idiot Nevada Senate candidate who wants people to pay for their doctor appointments with chickens. Volunteers in chicken suits are showing up at Republican Sue Lowden's events, toting "CHICKENS FOR CHECKUPS" signs.

Well done, fellow Democrats! Not only does this amusing prank keep Ms. Lowden's ridiculous "bartering for healthcare" comments in the news, but it pays a neat tribute to the Presidential campaign of 1992.

Back then, similarly clad protesters turned up at events for George Bush Senior, taunting him as "Chicken George" for refusing to debate Democratic Presidential nominee Bill Clinton. The guys in chicken suits did a good job of getting under Bush Senior's skin. He eventually relented on the debates, and as we fondly recall, he did pretty badly in them.

We cats PURR. We don't know who's going to win the June 8 Republican primary — but we think Sue Lowden has already laid an egg.
