looks like a chicket with extra white meat.
"You know, if I were a single man, I might ask that mummy out. That's a good-looking mummy!" -- Bill Clinton
Maybe that’s the way women looked back then.

"And that's not all. In 1996, when McCurry was working for the President, Clinton made a joke at a Connecticut fund-raiser about a recently discovered mummified young Inca woman. 'You know, if I were a single man, I might ask that mummy out,' Clinton said. 'That's a good-looking mummy.'
McCurry privately told the President that, in view of his reputation, the remark had been unwise but Clinton "snapped" at him, Kurtz writes.
McCurry rode with the press home to Washington, and, after a cocktail, muttered, 'Probably she does look good compared to the mummy he's been f.'
Reporters never printed the off-the-record remark until now.
McCurry did not have any comment yesterday, saying he hadn't seen the book."

The exhibition was shown in New York City at the Brooklyn Museum of Art from 2 October 1999 to 9 January 2000. The New York show was met with instant protest, centering on The Holy Virgin Mary by Chris Ofili, which had not provoked this reaction in London. While the press reported that the piece was smeared[citation needed] with elephant dung, Ofili's work in fact showed a carefully rendered black Madonna decorated with a resin-covered lump of elephant dung. The figure is also surrounded by small collaged images of female genitalia from pornographic magazines; these seemed from a distance to be the traditional cherubim.
New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who had seen the work in the catalogue but not in the show, called it "sick stuff" and threatened to withdraw the annual $7 million City Hall grant from the Brooklyn Museum hosting the show, because "You don't have a right to government subsidy for desecrating somebody else's religion."[5] Cardinal John O'Connor, the Archbishop of New York, said, "one must ask if it is an attack on religion itself," and the president of America's biggest group of Orthodox Jews, Mandell Ganchrow, called it "deeply offensive".[7] William A. Donohue, President of the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights, said the work "induces revulsion".[5] Giuliani started a lawsuit to evict the museum, and Arnold Lehman, the museum director, filed a federal lawsuit against Giuliani for a breach of the First Amendment.[7]
Back then? I thought this was discovered at a Walmart.
Lol! Better keep Clinton away from that bird!
It’s an Idol for Crying Out Loud.
LOL !
How can that be? I thought the Earth was only about 6,000 years old!

What makes you think that? Could be part of a Neanderthal Jenny Craig marketing scheme. Or it really is a turkey with goiters and was displayed as a menue choice.
Hillary???
Separated at birth ?

Don’t the dyke cameltoe whet your appetite ? ;-D
