ATL Caption Contest: Mr. Easter Bunny, White House Counsel Fred Fielding

Here's a photo of President Bush and his White House Counsel -- Fred Fielding, former senior partner at Wiley Rein (fka Wiley Rein & Fielding), dressed up as the Easter Bunny -- at the White House Easter Egg Roll earlier this week:

Quips our tipster: "One can only hope Fielding isn't splitting hares. Or giving hare-brained advice."

Okay, you're groaning. Think you can do better? Then enter the ATL caption contest. Same rules as before:

We welcome your suggested alternative captions, in the comments. Assuming sufficient response, we'll take our favorites, incorporate them into a poll, and hold a caption contest.

We doubt we'll receive as many submissions as we did for our last caption contest. But we're going to limit the entries this time: we're closing the comments if and when we hit the 100-comment mark. So if you'd like to enter the contest, don't delay. Thanks.

Update (2 PM): Okay, we'll let it get up to 200 comments. We especially appreciate suggested captions that are in some way law-related. What makes this picture relevant to ATL is the fact that the man in the bunny suit is President Bush's chief lawyer (and a former name partner of a leading D.C. law firm).

If we just wanted to post a random, funny photo of the president with the Easter bunny, we would have used this one.

Update (4:50 PM): You seem to be having a lot of fun with this, so we will keep the comments open indefinitely. But in picking the finalists, we will focus on comments that have a connection to the legal profession (as opposed to comments that are more politically oriented or simply random).

Update (3/31/08): Thanks for all the excellent entries. The comments section is now closed.

No stranger to subverting the rules, Bush obtains inside information on the location of an Easter egg containing the $3 trillion he'll need to pay for his Iraq War.

Your tipster should be shot for making either of those "jokes."

first

Bunny: "No Sir, none of the eggs contain Iranian nukes..."

Bush: [garbled nonsense]

Bunny: "Emphatically, I am NOT working for Tehran, but I'll tender my resignation to Cheney when out of the suit."

George Dubbya Bush can barely contain his delight as the Easter Bunny reaches low in his own "egg hunt".

In need of strategic and tactical planning, the White House brings back Karl Rove to assist with the Easter Egg Roll.

"Heh, hey Dick, get a load this here big-ass bunny."

please fix the crappy response from vizu.com. Pages on this site never stop trying to load because they get hung up waiting for that money-grubbing service site.

"And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives! You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties...you want me on that wall."

"I left a firm with over $4 million in PPP to do THIS???"

"The Easter bunny telling Pres. Bush that Iraq has WMD"

More people believe in the ability of a rabbit to lay an egg than believe in the ability of the president to solve long division.

"Things I don't believe in."

Mr. Bush welcomed the President of Easter Island to the White House, much to the confusion of the children and media in attendance for the annual South Lawn Egg Hunt.

Rabbit - "Sorry to disappoint you Mr. President, but someone lied to you: the dollar bills are rolled up ONLY to fit in the eggs, and THAT's just fake snow powder we put on the hedges."

"In an attempt to show bipartisanship, President Bush poses with Democratic Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi"

"The Easter Bunny, secretly a deadly assassin in the employ of Al Quaeda, sneaks up on our courageous leader"

The first rule of makeup is: You can never have too much purple eyeliner.

It's just a harmless little bunny, is it? Run away, run away, run away!

If you don't get the Monty Python reference, see:

At midnight on October 2 a Tangent Universe branches off the Primary Universe around the time when Georgie is called out of his bedroom by Fred, immediately before the appearance of the Artifact, the faulty jet engine. The inherently unstable Tangent Universe will collapse in just over 28 days and take the Primary Universe with it if not corrected. Closing the Tangent Universe is the duty of the Living Receiver, Georgie, who wields certain supernatural powers to help him in the task.

The Mad Hatter and the March Hare discuss the legality of waterboarding the Dormouse.

Bush and Peter Cottontail, hopping down the bunny trail. Hippity-hoppity, tax stimulus checks are on the way. Bringing ever husband and wife a hand out we'll be paying for for life. Free money to make you forget about deficits, war, and strife.

"One of these people is smarter than a slow adult. The other is the president of the United States."

The Mad Hatter and the March Hare discuss the legality of waterboarding the Dormouse.

Waterboarding the Dormouse was supposed to be a hyperlink to this: http://www.fromoldbooks.org/LewisCaroll-AliceInWonderland/pages/alice_07c/#details. In case that doesnt come out in the comment, its also the link in my name for this comment.

George: Why do you wear that stupid bunny suit?

Bunny: Why do you wear that stupid man suit?

Like most of the other members of the administration, it appears that the White House Counsel/Easter Bunny is a mouth breather.

The storm is coming, Frank says / A storm that will swallow the children / And I will deliver them from the kingdom of pain / I will deliver the children back the their doorsteps / And send the monsters back to the underground / I'll send them back to a place where no-one else can see them / Except for me / Because I am George W. Bush.

Two White House Employees - one hides eggs, the other lays them.

Bugs Bunny sports his new disguise to once again befuddle Elmer Fudd.

Not to be confused with the deep throat seder bunny Elliot Spitzer hired last year!

"Gosh darnit! I can't go anywhere without some joker trying to impersonate me!"

"Mr. President, I wanted to let you know that I put the last of those White House e-mails down the rabbit hole."

Still unable to find Osama Bin Laden, Bush offers the people of the United States the Easter Bunny and the toothfairy (not pictured).

Shocked, the slightly graying Easter Bunny realizes that he forgot to put a flag pin on his lapel.

President Bush, astonished that it's finally happened, gasps to the crowd, "So now you can see him too???"

"Stop looking at me SWAN---wait, it's a RABBIT---WTF???"

Fearing his cover will be blown by liberal cries of "science" and "facts", the Easter Bunny prepares to ask President Bush to decry rumors of his imaginary existence as "just a theory."

"Come on, now! There are some foreign dignitaries that even I won't hold hands with."

"...a grin without a brain! It's the most curious thing I ever saw in all my life!"

Sir, please take your blue pill now.

Bunny: "You want me to put my head where?!?"

Mr. Bush forgets to wear pants again, as the aghast Easter Bunny looks on.

Bunny thinking to himself: "Mmm Mmm ... nice arse, I'd love to tap that"

I believe that the first comment should win.

"Psst. I hear you hide eggs. Can you hide WMDs?"

Come with me and you'll be
In a world of pure imagination.
Take a look and you'll see
Into your imagination.

We'll begin with a spin
Traveling in the world of my creation.
What we'll see will defy
Explanation.

If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it.
Anything you want to, do it.
Wanta change the world?
There's nothing to it!

There is no life I know
To compare with pure imagination.
Living there you'll be free
If you truly wish to be!

BUNNY: Iran poses a grave and imminent threat to the security of this nation.

BUSH: The Almighty himself has informed me that Iran poses a grave and imminent threat to the security of this nation.

End it now. 1:05(2) cannot be topped.

1:27(3) - Thanks

Best 5 so far:
1:29(1)
1:06
1:21
1:11(2)
1:01(1)

People posting dialogue between Bush and the rabbit:

It doesn't fit with the picture, they aren't even looking at each other. Come up with something else.

Not Pictured: Vice President Dick Cheney loading 12 Gauge Mossberg Pump

It's too long, but thank you Willy Wonka.

When the men on the chess board
get up and tell you where to go
And you just had some kind of mushroom
And your mind is moving slow
Go ask Alice
I think she'll know

Klerk, I like your 1:11 submission: "The Mad Hatter and the March Hare discuss the legality of waterboarding the Dormouse."

Lat -- you avoided me at lunch time today, but don't think I won't be waiting for you by the bike rack after school, ready to stomp all over you.

1:34 - The critic, engaging in the destructive task of negation, adds not even a fraction the value of the most insipid prose.

Seeing the Easter Bunny, Bush runs for cover out of fear that Cheney and a gun might be nearby.

White House insiders go to great lengths to ensure that the President does not find out the truth about Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny, lest it impede his ability to lead our Nation in these tumultuous times.

Once he had explained why Americans should be proud of our efforts in Iraq, and the crowd began to cheer, the bunny snuck up on him, holding the carrot low. It was so strange; you could almost see the fury in the frozen blue eyes; the bunny's hands were shaking. I totally knew he was going to strike, but then I woke up.

Former Latham partner, implicated in billing fraud (as reported just now on WSJ Law Blog), appears in bunny suit with President Bush.

"...as your counsel, I recommend the other left...."

Let's be serious . . . if someone tried to take a picture of myself with President Bush, I'd put on a disguise, too.

doh. typo - that second semicolon should be a period/new sentence in my 1:43 post.

(the lengths we go to stave off actual work.)

Shhhh... Be Vewy Quiet!

Typical day for the Bush Administration.

President Bush fails to realize that finding the Easter Bunny does not make WMDs in Iraq any less of a fairytale.

Easter Bunny? I thought that was Dana Perino!

Little did the President know, his 1978 LSD trip would soon come back to haunt him

All references to Donnie Darko should be worth extra points.

Having never mustered the heart to admit the truth to their son, once again Barbara and George Sr. talked White House Counsel, Fred Fielding, into dawning a bunny suit on Easter morning to keep their son's childhood belief alive. No stranger to fulfilling such roles, a humiliated Fielding later groaned, "All I can say is thank god he finally stopped losing teeth."

Cosplay Accomplished!

"Dude, I can't believe you told me this was a costume party!"

"The Puppet-Master is always watching his minions."

If you can get them to believe in me, WMDs can't be a great leap.

Yeah, well, nobody wants to be the guy that told the POTUS there is no Easter Bunny and Cheney said that if I play along I'll get a Supreme Court nomination. Hey, whatever happened with that Harriet woman?

I dressed up in this bunny suit and all I got was a feature on ATL.

I agree with 1:49(3)

Bushisms 2008: "Strategery - the bunny could be . . . my decoy!"

Yes, Mr. President, in a recent poll, more high school students could identify who I am.

Dudes at my teach-in used to drop acid and wear three piece suits all the time. Everyone was totally chill about it.

Easter Bunny: "Um, Mr. President, Sir? Did you remind Mr. Vice President Cheney that it's not rabbit season?"

You're doin a heck-of-a-job, Easter Bunny

Does this eye shadow make me look like a slut?

Bunny: Nice Ass.

Mistaking the 43rd President of the United States for an ordinary garden carrot, Boobs the Strabismus-Inflicted Bucktooth Bunny seized upon the affable George W. Bush with a furor unrivaled by previous man-sized rabbits.

or

It was only a matter of time before the President's likeness to a taproot caught up with him.

or

"Hey G-dub. Is that a carrot in your pocket or are you just a dumbass?"

Okay, so it is OVER now b/c 1:58(1) just wrote the funniest thing ever.

GW: "See America? I told you that WMDs were real! Just like the Tooth Fairy, Santa Claus, and the Easter Bunny!"

After ignoring the rule of law for seven years, President Bush finally found a use for the White House Counsel.

President Bush with longtime friend and confidante Harvey on Tuesday. The six-foot tall imaginary rabbit, an expert in defense policy, is perhaps best-known for his instrumental role in advising the President during preparation for the Iraq War.

lol at 1:18(2). I'd could actually see him saying that.

1:58(1) is definitely the best so far. Go ahead and delete all the comments before it and see if anyone can top it.

1:05(2) wins hands down

alternatively i suggest:

The President finally reveals the administration official that had been feeding him false intelligence on WMDs

Apparently they wanted someone scarier than Harriet Miers for the post.

Bunny: "Presidente! You wanna mas cocaina?"
President: "Si, bunny. Si, mucho. heh."

Yup, 1:58(1) takes the cake. The vast majority of the others are ridiculously stupid.

"Shhhhhhhh, be vewy vewy quiet; I'm hunting wabbits, heheheheheheh,"

Maybe this This White House counsel can be confirmed to SCOTUS.

Donnie: Why do you wear that stupid bunny suit?
Frank: Why are you wearing that stupid man suit?

"Hey Laura! Is it me, or does Karl Rove just keep getting fatter?"

Please stop. With the exception of 1:58(1), you should all be ashamed of yourselves. If only you could give "Easter Bunny" a nickname like "Brownie" - kinda difficult though.

How is 1:58(2) so brilliant? Bush isn't even looking at the rabbit. There is no conversation between them.

Caption: President Bush feels right at home in Wonderland.

[scolding camera with wagging finger] ... "I did not have sexual relations with that rabbit ... the Easter Bunny"

Good to see 1:58 re-posting praise for his quip in subsequent comments

Together: 28 days... 6 hours... 42 minutes... 12 seconds. That... is when we... invade... Iran.

But where did I hide the Constitution?

don't close yet - I'm working on it

2:13 - it was me posting praise for 1:58(1) and I'm not the original poster. Don't hate just cuz your post isn't getting any praise.

And if you go chasing rabbits
And you know you're going to fall
Tell 'em a waterboard-ed Qaeda-pillar
Has given you the call
Recall Alberto when he was just small

"President Bush with the newest member mascot of the U. of Penn State at the inauguration of its sixth law school campus."

2:11(2):

You've never spoken to a single person without looking at him? Are you an idiot? Ever sleep in a bunk bed and have a conversation with the person in the other bunk?

God this Bunny is creepy. I wonder if my lawyer could get a restraining order for me.

Tired of hiding in a burkha, Osama bin Laden tries on a new disguise.

"President Bush introduced the Easter Bunny to a group of pre-selected, hard-core conservative Republican children."

Rabbit: What do you mean you won't pay for paralegal filing? Where you goin' b*t&h?

A fictional creature cynically designed to provide seemingly harmless amusement to easily deceived children, based on a bizarre interpretation of Christanity and logic. Seen here with the Easter Bunny (r).

"President Bush introduced the Easter Bunny to a group of pre-selected, hard-core conservative Republican children."

"Someone please tell me that's not a wombat behind me."

Rabbit: What do you mean you won't pay for paralegal filing? Where you goin' b*t&h?

"On Easter Sunday, President Bush participated in a reenactment of Jesus' Resurrection as he has always envisioned it."

the donnie darko quote wins.

game over.

Rabbit: What do you mean you won't pay for paralegal filing? Where you goin' b*t&h?

2:02, 2:06, and 2:11 = 1:58.

Really, if 1:58 is the best that anyone could do, then "tipster" should just win.

I guess that answers the question of whether its better to get a JD or an MBA.

LOL at 2:31

2:28(1) should definitely be in the running...and no, it's not my post.

As Mr. Fielding asks President Bush to be introduced to the children as "Fred Bunny, Esq., White House Counsel," President Bush is momentarily - and justifiably - distracted by the appearance of the stunning Projects Manager from the National Press Foundation.

Yeah, let's talk about Kash a little. I think she is the Maria Bartiromo of Web 2.0. Smarter, quicker, and better-looking.

In the Rose Garden: With the unexpected retirement of Justice Breyer, President Bush moved quickly to nominate Hon. Br'er (6th Cir.) to the Supreme Court and asked Congress to quickly confirm his nominee, stating "A nomination had to be made. I'm the nominator, and I've nominated Judge Br'er to the bench so that childrens of all faiths can join in celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ."

Kash = plain

Maria Bartiromo = uniquely sexy

White House Counsel Fred Fielding demonstrates a proposed new "coercive interrogation technique" for President Bush.

Bush talking to Santa Claus--"I told you the Easter Bunny was real."

We're late! We're late! For a very important date!

2:45 - long but very good.

Kash = clever cutie

Maria = bigmouth BJQ

"President Bush, shortly after revealing that his affair with Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice in 2001 produced son, Joshua (pictured right)."

Because Pinocchio as White House counsel just wouldn't work

1:50 FTW.

Bushy cotton-tail isn't just an Elliot Spitzer joke anymore

Last Sunday President Bush revealed a new cabinet post sorely needed by his administration, Secretary of Fairy Tales.

Hahaha. 2:28 is awesome.

Fielding: Does this vest make me look gay?

"No, Fred, I don't think you understood me correctly. I asked for a _snow bunny_, not the easter bunny. Now go change out of that costume and help me roll up these dollar bills."

2:55 - there are four 2:28s, none of which are awesome

the winner is very clearly 12:54(3), a beacon of originality and genius

2:48 - So Maria is better?

How about the FIRST donnie darko quote wins?

In the final days of his presidency, Bush has teamed up with our Ally, the Madhatter, and both vow to prove the validity of evidence pointing to Alice's existence in the Wonderland.

Fred Fielding, White House Counsel, dressed as the Easter Bunny, tries to think of how he can thank his friend, Dick Cheney, for getting him this job.

Mr. President - There is a giant Rabbit behind the Bush.

Fred Fielding, White House Counsel, acts on the advice of his friend, Dick Cheney, on how to get closer to the President.

2:28(1) is mine, and I'd hope that the voters will have the opportunity to determine how "awesome" it is.

Thanks for the support 2:38 (and 2:55 if you meant my 2:28).

"Yes, Mr. Rabbit, I think you can do much better than UPENN State Law School. Heck, even I went Ivy."

Fred Fielding, White House Counsel, acts on the advice of his friend, Dick Cheney, on how to get closer to the President.

The Daily Kos desperately tried to assasinate the President today, figuring he'd never see the chocolate egg coming.

Fred Fielding, White House Counsel, acts on the advice of his friend, Dick Cheney, on how to get closer to the President.

I like Bush's tie. That's not a caption.

Bush was heard whispering to Cheney, "Hey Dick, lucky for him he didn't come dressed as a quail."

Fielding: Hey did you hear Chicago fell to #7 in US News?

Bush: Yeah, what an awful school

3:07 is good too.

Bush quipped, "Hey Dick, lucky for him he didn't come dressed as a quail."

"Yes, Mr. Rabbit, I think you can do much better than UPENN State Law School. Heck, even I went Ivy."

The Easter Bunny (right) masturbates behind President Bush.

Good, but not related to law.

1 vote for 2:01.

The movie quotes are nice. 1:09, it's blue eyeshadow, not purple eyeliner.

I like 1:52(2)

2:01 wins

The President deeply misses his days as a cheerleader.

Unfortunately for Fred Fielding, Hazmat ran out of standard issue gas masks and radio-activity suits during a recent emergency drill at the White House. Asked later about the mix-up, Mr. Fielding quipped, "At least I didn't have to wear the embarrassing mask and costume that the guy in front of me was wearing."

"Mr. Bush I have an Iowa grad on the phone.... Yes, sir I'll tell him you aren't interested in any wheat futures right now."

President Bush with Justice Brer

Crowds were stunned today when Peter Rabbit publicly unzipped and gave President Bush his hasenpfeffer.

Because they were all out of jackass costumes at the store...

At the annual Easter egg hunt, President Bush for the first time acknowledged that global warming may be more than an unproven theory.

Is 3:32 some kind of Wickard v. Filburn joke?

Although decried as a divisive pick, the Senate confirmed Peter Cottontail as White House Counsel

W: Hey Dick, see the guy in the paisley vest and glasses, big ears? Major league asshole from the New York Times.

Veep: Big time.

Bush: "Come on, Fielding, shake the tail when you walk. You're better than that!"

The White House's clever loop-hole for interrogations: The Constitution does not apply to bunnies

"Come on, Fielding, shake the tail when you walk! You're better than that!"

These are the worst f**king captions I've ever seen. Jesus. I don't care if people say I'm trolling, you guys need to stick to law and avoid comedy like the plague.

the DONNY DARKO reference should win hands down....

this one:
"George: Why do you wear that stupid bunny suit?

Bunny: Why do you wear that stupid man suit?"

President Bush and Senator Obama leave the White House after an impromptu meeting to discuss the President's interest in joining Alice and the Obamaniacs in Wonderland?

agreed, the Donnie Darko reference deserves a place of honor

Thanks, John. You got a lot of soul.

"As is his practice, President Bush conferred with one of his most trusted advisors, the Easter Bunny, before delivering his speech on progress made in Iraq. Sources confirm that the Easter Bunny indicated some trouble in finding many handpainted eggs secretly stashed in now conflict-ridden Basra."

And Big Nutbrown Hare said "I love you all the way to Iraq...and back."

George W. Bush (left) and his wife (right) hope for a boost in the opinion polls by appealing to the plushophile demographic.

The Donnie Darko reference got the quote wrong (it's "Why are you wearing that stupid man suit?") and has no legal relevance at all.

It's clever that someone made the connection, but it didn't really involve any original thought.

P.S. - Yes, I also happen to think Donnie Darko is an incredibly overrated movie.

CAPTION:

Looking for a place to take a crap, the Eater Bunny finds a bush.

4:11 takes it. That is freakin hilarious.

4:13 = 4:11

Nice Music Man reference, tho.

George: Okay, Harvey, time to tell em it was all your idea.

Bunny: Well, I'm a 6 foot bunny rabbit that only you can see, but at this point, I'm pretty sure they'd believe just about anything.

Point! on the legal relevance.

Ouch and lose a point on the original thought - did you think that through?

Surely an aptly placed and biting double entendre is original thought.

In the great oval room
there was a telephone
and a red balloon
and a chart of an economic swoon...

To avoid getting shot by Dick Cheney, White House Counsel Fred Fielding hides in a bunny costume.

4:21 is my new fave. (I am not 4:21, but I have kids who love that book.) That is hilarious.

4:20 - Good point, I phrased it poorly. There was clearly original thought in deciding to post it as a caption option, but not original thought in coming up with the language (even if it had been the right quote).

There are a bunch of pretty funny/clever ones, but not many people seemed to heed Lat's suggestion that "they" - (how are you supposed to refer to people who refer to themselves as "we") - appreciate comments that were in some way law-related.

Caption: President Bush's attempt to blame the last eight years of U.S. politics on psychotic episodes brought about by constant visions of a 6-foot tall rabbit was derailed last Sunday, when the giant rabbit was revealed to be White House Counsel Fred Fielding. Fielding was later disbarred for helping his client construct the most fraudulent and least convincing insanity defense in history, but was commended for his zealous dedication to client service.

Improvement on 4:22 --

White House Counsel Fred Fielding prepares for a hunting trip with Dick Cheney, hoping the big ears and sannpy red vest of his bunny suit allow him to avoid the fate of attorneys who have hunted with Cheney in the past.

More puns on how FF is said to be Deep Throat, please!

Improvement on 4:22 --

White House Counsel Fred Fielding prepares for a hunting trip with Dick Cheney by donning a bunny suit. He hopes the big ears and snappy red vest allow him to avoid the fate of attorneys who have hunted with Cheney in the past.

As punishment for providing erroneous advice, White House Counsel Fred Fielding is forced to wear the dreaded rabbit suit.

After service of the Congressional subpoena, the White House responded by asserting that any explanations for the costume were protected by executive privilege.

Lame duck season, wabbit season, lame duck season, wabbit season, lame duck season, wabbit season.

We're past 200 comments, but as a take off on 4:36 -

"Seeking to avoid being served with a Congressional subpoena, White House Counsel Fred Fielding goes undercover as an innocent-looking Easter Bunny."

@ 1:14

George: Why do you wear that stupid bunny suit?

Bunny: Why do you wear that stupid man suit?

George: Heh, 'cause I'm a stupid man, I guess. So, is that your "law suit" there, Fred? Heh heh heh.

(note: "heh" indicates my typed version bush's annoying laugh he uses for his own jokes.)

"Yes, sir. It would be a valid exercise of preemptive self-defense to invade Mexico in search of those eggs."

12:59 "egg hunt" is best so far

Incoherent and stressed from defending the president, the White House Counsel appears at the Easter Egg roll, confusing "pro bono" and "pro bunny".

"Listen, dude, do you really want the eggs?"

with his partner looking on, the president holds a press conference to announce that he is coming out as america's first FURRY leader.

For my next Supreme Court appointment, allow me to introduce ...

well, sir, you seemed so very adamant, I didn't want to ... I just ... I ...
Ok, so you definitely didn't want me to 'show you the bunny'?

Hoping to be nominated to the DC Circuit, White House Counsel Fred Fielding completes "rush week" by dressing as the Easter Bunny. He was heard to comment, "This is nothing! You should've seen what Harriet had to do when she was pledging the Supreme Court!"

Bush Announces the Next Step in Operation Iraqi Freedom: Bring Easter to Iraq.

Evidence that Administration preferences may indeed have played a role in Justice Department hiring.

Mr. President, when Michael Moore said there were Easter Eggs about you on the DVD, he was talking about a different kind.

The President attempted to sneak Harriet Miers's confirmation past the press today, but the new glasses didn't seem to fool them one bit.

What a ripoff. The post at 4:11 deserves inclusion on the list. And yes, this is 4:11 saying this.

Come on Lat. Throw this one in for shits n giggles.

What a ripoff. The post at 4:11 deserves inclusion on the list. And yes, this is 4:11 saying this.

Come on Lat. Throw that one in for shits n giggles.

"The genius of it is that Congress can't subpoena bunnies."

Apparently, they'll give you CLE credit for anything now.

Wiley Wabbit Weighs Watergate, Waterboarding. Walks With W.

Easter Bunny: ATL Tier 3 Grad of the Day

1.) In the seventh year of his administration, Bush II realizes that his reliance on Administration legal opinions may not be considered "reasonable" in posterity, and asks himself for the first and only time, "regardless of what the jackass in the bunny suit is telling me, do I think water-boarding is torture…and…where exactly is this Irak (sic) place?" Unfortunately for literally everyone, at that precise moment, a gust of wind fluttered Condi’s spring dress ever so slightly above her knee. The questions remain unanswered.

2.) Not possessing Santa’s sword and shield of coal and gift, the Easter Bunny was relegated to shitting on the Whitehouse lawn to show his displeasure with the Administration. Later, Fielding awoke half-clad in the bushes with an ass-kicker of a hangover and hoped it had all been a dream.

3.) Fielding :
“America I’ve given you all and now I’m nothing…
When will you be worthy of your [Easter Bunny]…
America when will you send your eggs to India…”

Bush:
“It’s true I [didn’t] want to join the Army or turn lathes in precision parts factories, I’m nearsighted and psychopathic anyway…”

Bush's pink elephant is actually a white rabbit that gives questionable legal advice.

By publicly displaying the President with an ancient, heathen symbol of spring fertility, the White House signals the end of its faith-based abstinence program.

Bush: "I've already got Cheney going on Meet the Press to assure the American public of the ease with which the government can take candy from a baby. He says we'll be greeted as liberators. Now Fred, I need a legal opinion from you on the practice. And I shouldn't need to tell you what I think the opinion should say. I don't want to have to send Gonzalez down to the Toothfairy's sick-bed with a bag full of teeth and a sock full of quarters to get my way on this... Ding dang, I love them creme eggs, heh heh."

While the entire crowd directed its attention to the right, a near-sighted Chief Executive adorned his spectacles and stared off toward a large carrot at 12:00.

No one's comments are as bunny as mine.

Fred (thinking): "That f-n headhunter promised me I would be supporting the President on matters of national importance. G-d D-MN it!"

"Didn't believe in me, Mr. President? I also heard that you thought Scooter Libby was innocent. Now who is a believer!"

George: What'd ya think about Eliot?

Rabbit: Silly rabbi, trix are for Gops.

George: Ha! Too bad about Eliot?

Rabbit: Silly rabbi, trix are for Gops.

President Bush ignores an aging feminist hippie who dressed up as a bunny in order to make some indeterminate point about reproduction in America after Carhart.
