News A Picture of Mike O'Brien Giving a Giddy SECB Two Fresh Eggs from his Urban Hens (!!?!?)

Posted by Lindy West on Wed, Aug 19, 2009 at 1:40 PM

The conversation went like this:

"The other candidates had more money than I did."
"But you have more chickens than any other candidate."
"Yes, that's true!"
"I'll personally give your general election campaign five American dollars."
"Well, then I'll send you a personalized thank-you note!"
"WHAT ABOUT A PERSONALIZED THANK-YOU FRESH EGG??"

Straight from the chicken's butthole.

Oh, and also bunz:

O'Bunz

Thanks to Meags for the photos and for making the whole egg thing happen.

Eggs don't come out the chicken's butthole, Lindy. Just fyi...

Doesn't anyone who bikes like he does have a great butt? Cyclists, ice skaters, gymnasts, and ballet dancers all have wonderful tushies.

...and btw...i know the pic was probably taken on the QT, but I can't really tell how admirable his ass is in that particular snap.

Glad to know SECB's election coverage is mostly hormone-driven. Mike O'B has a great butt, but the idea of nixing the tunnel (which is going to happen whether he likes it or not according to Olympia) is pretty dumb.

Swooooooooon!

@5: McGinn is the anti-tunnel wonk, actually.

And yes, I do want to see McGinn's booty.

what a cute man. way to go, seattle, for fielding cutie-cute politicos.

Next up, SECB outrage when we put a stake in the heart of the tunnel ... (grin)

Way to whore yourself out for eggs Lindy!

Actually...eggs do come from the butthole. Chickens have this amazing hole called the cloaca (for pleasure, pooping, and laying).

Definitely my favorite orifice, ever.

@7 O'Brien is anti-tunnel too, which I learned from my hormones after he gave me those eggs and let me eat all his brownies.

It's all about the global warming, really. The tunnel aesthetically may appeal, but the resources to build a non-transit tunnel and keep it operating (fans 24/7/365, lights ditto) far outweigh it.

Plus it's damned expensive. Totally ungreen.

7. O'Brien, like McGinn, is a Sierra Club wonk. Both men are adamantly anti-tunnel.
