True story- I darn near stepped on a wild turkey hiding in an open spot i nthe woods where the grass was tall- she was 2 feet from me, totally camoflaged, I never saw a thing till she burst forward, flew into the air, then landed abotu 20 feet awat runnign around me, clucking and acting liek her wing was broken so that I wouldn’t find the clutch of eggs she had been sittign on (I didn’t even look for them as I didn’t want to accidently step ion them0- but she didn’t know that)
She ran aroudn me tryign to fool me into thinkign she was hurt, that she woudl make an ‘easy target’ but she always kept her distance, every step I took towards her she woudl take 3 steps back- (just seeign how close I coudl get- meant her no harm- was just curious if she’d charge me as I had that happen two years ago)
Looking back, This is exactly how the GOP is acting- runnign aroudn pretendign to be soemthign they aren’t- attemptign to fool everyone, and NEVER lettign thsoe who don’t know any better get close enough to see that they are really faking- they make a LOT of noise, just liek my turkey friend today- tryign to distract from the real issues at hand- tryign to lure us away from our real goals- Sadly many fall for it-
Good story
YuP. True.
Great analogy.
But they’re probably more like the domesticated kind of turkeys. The kind that are so stupid they’ll drown looking up at the rain.
That is the best description of the GOP, I’ve ever heard.
Too many of us don’t pay attention to old time wisdom.
Good analogy using the turkey hen.
