Massachusetts senior senator Ted Kennedy went after Senator Byron Dorgan during the immigration debate. But, really, that's not the story. The story is that Ted Kennedy somehow helped bring chicken pluckers into the argument.
Kennedy, who supports a guest-worker program for illegal immigrants, said: "I would like the chicken pluckers to pay $10 or $15 an hour."
Dorgan took the chicken-plucker bait: "Mr. President, let me stand up and say a word on behalf of chicken pluckers." And he did.
Wonkette responded, "There's also a pretty good chance they're both insane." But we're willing to bet that Teddy was having some fun with Senator Dorgan. Or, maybe he was just hungry and he had the real, honest-to-goodness "Chicken Plucker" gadget on his mind. Just looking at the "Chicken Plucker" is enough to make us go veggie.
