The best part of that pig in the picture is where they put his inflation nozzle. He's actually grabbing it with his left hand, safely beneath the frame. Look at him. It's as if he's saying, "Eat me, motherf***ers!"

"I am a taxpaying resident of the District of Columbia. I am also a government contractor, and because of the Hatch Act, it is illegal for me to make monetary contributions to a federal presidential campaign." No, it's not. The closest you might come to being covered by the Hatch act is to be forbidden to use your position to raise money for partisan purposes.

"I am also a government contractor, and because of the Hatch Act, it is illegal for me to make monetary contributions to a federal presidential campaign." I thought the Hatch Act just prohibited fund-raising by federal employees, not donations (and it's not limited to presidential campaigns, I think it's all partisan elections). Is there a different rule for contractors? That doesn't seem constitutional to me.

holy baby backs. that pig is climbing right up there with clowns, the orange line, segways, and the nissan pavilion on my list of dc phobias. i'm slowly coming to terms with my fear of bumping into at least thiry seven people as i negotiate a single aisle at whole foods.
