Inspired by
JurassicPork's list of chicken-crossing explanations, I decided to write my own. Not all of them are dirty, but I think enough of them are to warrant posting here and besides, a little general political humor never hurt anyone.
Why did the chicken cross the road?
Zell Miller: It was armed with spitballs!
John McCain: It was a maverick and didn't want to stay on one side all the time.
A red-stater: Because it hates America.
A blue-stater: It's going to Canada! Go, chicken, go!
Bush: To join the Axis of Fowl.
Lynndie England: I don't know, but I'm pointing at its penis!
Michael Moore: Because it wanted to invade Afghanistan so it could build an oil pipleline.
John Kerry: I voted for the resolution providing funding for the chicken to cross the road before I voted against it.
John Edwards: There are two Americas, and the chicken was trying to cross from one America into the other.
Jenna Bush: Maybe it was drunk, like me.
Bernie Kerik: To meet its lover in its apartment overlooking Ground Zero.
Bill Clinton: It depends on what the definition of 'chicken' is.
Bill Frist: It was trying to filibuster, and I want to stop it from using the filibuster to discriminate against people of faith.
Tom DeLay: Why would you suggest that the chicken was paid by lobbyists to cross the road?
W. Mark Felt: It was on its way to break into the Democratic headquarters.
John Ashcroft: I don't know, but naked chickens are indecent, and I think we should cover it with a drape. I also think we should look at its library records and medical records just in case.
Tom Ridge: A chicken has crossed the road? Raise the Escaped Poultry alert to yellow!
Jerry Falwell: Clearly, the chicken is promoting the homosexual agenda and must be stopped.
James Dobson: It was on its way to a gay orgy with Sponge Bob Square Pants.
Dick Cheney: It was going to an undisclosed location.
Osama bin Laden: Because it was an infidel! Death to chickens!
Condi Rice: I believe the title of the memo was, "Chicken Determined to Crosss Road within United States."
Baghdad Bob: There is no chicken! The chicken is just a lie made up by the Americans! There are no chickens entering Baghdad right now!
Hans Blix: The chicken did not possess weapons of mass destruction.
Robert Novak: The chicken was a secret CIA agent.
Howard Dean: YYEEEEEAAARRRGGGHHH!
A suicide bomber: It was on its way to become a martyr and get 72 virgin chickens in heaven.
Arnold Schwarzenegger: It was a girly chicken!
Paul Wolfowitz: The chicken was trying to spread freedom and democracy around the world.
Bill O'Reilly: It was entering a No-Spin Zone.
Ted Kennedy: Looks like it's headed toward that lake over there.
Al Gore: I invented the chicken. And I want to put it in a lockbox.
Tom Coburn: Chickens who crossed the road should be punished by the death penalty. Even though I crossed the road myself a few times when I was younger.
Swift Boat Chickens for Truth: The chicken never really went to Cambodia like it claimed to, and it didn't deserve any of its Purple Hearts.
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi: Who cares why the chicken crossed the road? I'm going to cut its head off!
Newsweek: Our anonymous source told us that the chicken was flushing the Koran down the toilet.
Rick Santorum: If you start letting chickens cross the road, next thing you know it'll be chicken-on-dog!
Jim West: Of course the chicken wasn't out looking for gay younger chickens--the chicken isn't gay, and neither am I.
David Hager: I didn't see a chicken--I was too busy raping my wife in the ass.
