I don't think I should have to answer that question.

I invented the chicken. I invented the road. Therefore, the
chicken crossing the road represented the application of these
two different functions of government in a new, reinvented way
designed to bring greater services to the American people.

BARBARA WALTERS

been polluted by unchecked industrialist greed. The chicken
did not reach the unspoiled habitat on the other side of the
road because it was crushed by the wheels of a gas-guzzling
SUV.

RUSH LIMBAUGH
I don't know why the chicken crossed the road, but I'll bet it
was getting a government grant to cross the road, and I'll bet
someone out there is already forming a support group to help
chickens with crossing-the-road syndrome. Can you believe this?
How much more of this can real Americans take? Chickens crossing
the road paid for by their tax dollars, and when I say tax
dollars, I'm talking about your money, money the government took
from you to build roads for chickens to cross.

No one called to warn me which way that chicken was going. I
had a standing order at the farmer's market to sell my eggs
when the price dropped to a certain level. No little bird gave
me any insider information.

I envision a world where all chickens will be free to cross
roads without having their motives called into question.
