The Pope pontificates on why the chicken crossed the road.

This morning on Christiane Charest the corrosively witty Zapartistes did a drive-by-excoriation. Listen to the whole piece.

Their imitation of Pope Benedict pontificating on why the chicken crossed the road (that bit is found at 4:50) just cracked me up.

Imagine a creaky voice ...

"That chicken was excommunicated. That chicken is a sinner because she laid eggs - which are aborted chicks. May God have mercy on her soul."

The Pope as chicken comes from this website.
