Councilman Still Hopes To Save Duck Livers
Now that City Council is back in session and everybody is ignoring David Oh’s lawsuit about the November election, we can move on to pressing issues. And then once we fix all of those — should be like a week or two, I bet — Jack Kelly can try to ban foy grass again. Kelly’s wish to ban of the french delicacy made out of bird liver comes not out of wanting to control our lives, but because foie gras is just mean to animals: “I’m not against any food product whatsoever. But what I am against, I’m absolutely against, the torturing of any animals. Any animals.” Kelly is the candidate who was elected by people like Stu Bykofsky, who voted for him because he likes animals. (This is different than people who didn’t vote for Tom Knox in May because a guy in a giant shark costume told them not to. Man, politics is confusing.) Anyway, expect more protesters in real life but not in the comments of this blog, as thankfully the foie gras people aren’t as organized online as they are in real life, or they are apparently better at recognizing satire (or whatever) than supporters of a certain presidential candidate are. |

Goose, not Duck.
Goose, duck, whatever. The protesters annoy me to the point where I’m going to start selling foie gras cheesesteaks somewhere.
