Newt Gingrich was bitten by a penguin at the Saint Louis Zoo on Friday during a private tour, zoo officials said.
The candidate was on the tour
before giving a speech to the National Rifle Association convention when
"he was nipped on the finger" by a Magellanic penguin."
Of course, Larainy could not help but dig deeper into this outrageous miscarriage of animal/political justice/injustice.
Me: Hey, you in the penguin suit. Are you the malefactor that assaulted Newt?
Penguin: Yeah, that's me. And if you want to make something of it swim across that moat and stick one of those bony fingers my way.
Me: Gee, what got your glossy feathers in such a bunch?
Penguin: (Pulls wallet out of secret penguin pocket) See this? Do you know what this is?
Me: Your Costco card?
Penguin: No, you dunderhead. I'm a card carrying member of the ACLU and I don't like politicians who give speeches at the NRA.
Me: You're a member of the American Civil Liberties Union?
Penguin: Of course I am, and I'm a Democrat too. Haven't you seen "March of the Penguins"? That was just a warm up march. We're headed for Washington just as soon as Al Gore's hot air melts the rest of the polar ice.
Me: What cause are you marching for?
Penguin: The right for every penguin to be given a top hat and cane. It's outrageous that we've been forced to live in formal wear for centuries without accessories. We can keep eggs in the hats and those canes will come in handy during hockey season.
Me: I think you better get a move on if you're going to march on Washington.
Penguin: Don't I know it. We don't stand a chance if Mitt Romney is president. Now there's a finger I'd like to bite.

Hope the penguin wasn't rabid. hahaha
Nasty penguin...
Where does one find a top hat these days? I think they are so stylish. I might just bring them back.
