"For my own part I wish the Bald Eagle had not been chosen the Representative of our Country. He is a Bird of bad moral Character. He does not get his Living honestly."
Thus wrote Ben Franklin in a letter to his daughter dated January 26, 1784. Old Ben regarded the wild turkey as "a true native American" and the bald eagle as an ignoble snatch-thief who purloins fish from honest wage-earning ospreys. In retrospect, had the choice of national bird been reversed, it is hard to imagine a plump gobbler with cranberries and yams ensconced on our currency. Perhaps the predatory snatch-thief bird is the most apt symbol after all.
Recalling a phrase from former Offense Secretary Donald Krumsfeld, “When you nominate a corporatist whore for president, you go with the smarmy you have, not the smarmy you want.”
