Hizzoner?

Rahm Emanuel is, as everybody knows by now, leaving the White House to run for mayor of Chicago. At a farewell ceremony today, his colleagues gave him a dead fish (which I imagine he swallowed whole, like something out of the original V sci-fi series).

Well, that’s still less objectionable than the flaming paper-bag full of dog poop left by the taxpayers’ front door that this administration represents.

Rebecca, in the comments: "They were being kind. If they were being just, he would have been sleeping with it."

Well, the White House has flopped under Rahm's stint as CofS, so a dead fish as a parting gift might be more nuanced that Hizzoner-wannabe might admit.

Reference to taxpayer money that was pilchard perhaps?
