WASHINGTON: George Papoon, Surrealist party candidate for president, was
roundly criticized for using a "fake" presidential seal on the front of
his podium, reminiscient of the actual presidential seal.
The fake "seal" in front of the podium was a baby walrus with a
red ball tied to his nose. The real presidential seal is a highly-trained
circus seal who can balance a ball on his nose for an entire two-hour
filibuster.
"I regret any confusement this may have caused," said Papoon in a
statement typed by somebody else. "We were unable to find an actual
seal in time for the speech, but then I remembered 'I am the walrus'!"
