Our recent post providing political explanations of why the chicken crossed the road has engendered some comments and additional research by your editors., including some graphic representations. Feel free to opine, no dime or date and time required.
Bill O’REILY: I wanted to ask him personally, but he’s too much of a COWARD to come on my show!
TREY GOWDY: “We have conducted 185 hearings 
and interviewed over 500 chickens, all of whom are known to have close associations with the subject chicken. As everyone knows the chicken in question has refused to answer our questions as to why he chose to cross the road and has taken the 5th. However, we want to assure the American people that, although our hearings have taken over 3 years, we will get to the bottom of the question. And the answers will be explosive.”
KEVIN MCCARTHY (R,CA): “I think our voters can be proud of the way the GOP conference has handled the chicken scandal. Democratic candidates have suffered steep declines in the polls”.
IOWA CHICKEN – ‘cuz the field on my side of the road went to ethanol
MACHIAVELLI: The point is that the chicken crossed the road. Who cares why? The end of crossing the road justifies whatever motive there was.
JERRY SEINFELD: Why does anyone cross a road? I mean, why doesn’t anyone ever think to ask, What the heck was this chicken doing walking around all over the place, anyway?”
JOHN McCAIN: My friends, that chicken crossed the road because he recognized the need to engage in cooperation and dialogue with all the chickens on the other side of the road.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: He was trying to get away from some intolerant Republicans and form a 
cluckus with other chickens of similar minds.
PAT BUCHANAN: To steal the job of a decent, hardworking American.
DONALD TRUMP: (who has had more than one comment on the issue) You know, I love the chicken people, I think they’re terrific people, but let me just be clear on one thing: when the chickens send their people to cross our roads, they’re not sending their best. These people, the people they’re sending, they’re bringing drugs, they’re bringing crime, they’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people. But the fact is, the facts of this situation, they’re costing us billions of billions of dollars each year and then they tell us not to eat eggs? I don’t think so. I don’t think so.
