The Forthcoming Election From The Perspective Of The PIG

By Meri Ulrich
Sept. 12, 2008

Many of you know me now thanks to the two opposing party candidates that I am running against. It's true that I am coming into this race at the last minute, but; there's always room for a good all-American pig in any election.
 
First, let me give you a little background information about exactly who I am and what I represent. I have been made famous throughout the years thanks to great Americans (?) such as Walt Disney and even within mainstream religious organizations.
 
You may know me as "Porky" or "Petunia" (she's the one with the lipstick), or you may have heard me scorned as "traif" which is a Yiddish word that some Jews call me and indicates that I am unclean. Some Muslims actually refer to eating my flesh as a "hate crime". I am very grateful to those who feel this way as it helps to keep my species alive and well!!
 
Now, I have become a major talking point for the two current candidates for the American Presidency. Wow, I have really arrived!!
 
What I resent is that these individuals assume that my kind and I would even consider wearing lipstick on a regular basis. One of our main pastimes is rooting around in mud and garbage for sustenance and we certainly do not need to wear lipstick in order to keep our families fed. Only humans feel the need to spend an exorbitant amount of money on a waxy substance that smears all over the place and which they believe will turn them into something that they are not.
 
 We have a saying in the pig community, "You can put lipstick on a human but it will STILL be a human".
 
Speaking of humans, they are really annoying to the pig species. They call us "the other white meat"; as if we needed a title to make us seem less inferior to chicken. Compared to other meats we are far superior since we do not feel the need to run around telling everyone that we taste like chicken. We do not taste like chicken and we are proud of it!!
 
As a member of the porcine family I can offer you something that the other candidates cannot. I can offer you honesty and I will never pretend to be something that I am not. I will not lower your taxes, nor will I stop wars. I may discover oil because with all of the digging going on one never knows what may come up.
 
I stand before you, my snout unfettered by any artificial coloring and I ask you to vote for me for the Presidency. I don't even need a running mate because they are simply attack dogs and pigs and dogs aren't necessarily compatible.
 
I promise not to make fun of my fellow pigs or my farm neighbors, the chicken or the cow, who, by the way, do not wear lipstick either. We are all what we are and although some are more attractive than others, do not make a big deal out of it or cause that fact to divert us from the important issues at hand.
 
What do I promise you? Well, I will make sure that every single American has at least one muddy pen in their yard that is mortgage and tax free. I promise you that I will help you look for alternative food sources (anything or anyone other than a pig) and I will make sure that all of your children are well schooled in pigdom. If they got along as well as we do and required as little expensive clothing you would all be richer and better off.
 
Vote for me...the pig, and keep lipstick on humans. I guarantee that we will all be better off. Even global warming will be abolished due to the fact that there will be no more human politicians or media mavens polluting the atmosphere with so much hot air.
 
Pigs rule.
