Too Chicken To Run For Mayor?

While the Regessives sit and squawk, "The sky is falling," a new candidate flys without fear, over the cuckoos's nest and under the radar.

Which do you prefer the original fake chicken or the new crispy creator of burning man, Chicken John?
It's no yolk, folks. We've got a full-fledged cock-fight on or hands.

So how does challenger 'Chicken John' measure up against the incubant Mayor McChicken as well as the other Candidates De Jure? Here's the tale of the tape:

  • The Nudist - Bigger Dick?

  • The Conservative- Bigger Balls?

  • The Homeless Guy - Nothing to lose.


Ok. We don't know much about Chicken John except that he drives a compost-burning pickup truck and was the owner of the Odeon bar... and that we hope to see more of this colorful character.
My platform? What’s my platform, you ask? The bed of 1975 GMC pick ‘em up truck that runs on coffee grinds. Party affiliation? I like to party. Party hardy. Issues? What about the issues? We’ll get to that later. For now, I need to get on the ballot. I need your help. Here’s how this works:

Fight for San Francisco

It is time to stand up for the City of San Francisco and against short-sighted politics. Supervisor Chris Daly is attempting to cut critical city services from the mayor’s budget in order to fund his own political backers. Daly has introduced a motion that would eliminate key city programs without going through the normal budget process.
Please join us tomorrow for a rally on the steps of City Hall at 12PM, on the Dr. Carlton B. Goodlett Place side to show your opposition to Supervisor Daly’s plan.

Supervisor Daly’s motion would cut:

$700,000 for the Community Justice Center, which will deal with quality-of-life crimes$3 million for a vitally needed police academy class$10.6 million for DPW street repairs and new trees$1.1 million for a Rec & Park increase in park patrols $713,000 for the 311 City Call Center$500,000 for a Small Business Assistance Center

our city safer — please join us. If you believe the homeless
situation needs a proven

investments to repair our streets
