TWO FOR AMERICA - BILL THE CAT AND OPUS THE
PENGUIN
Bloom County Button
This listing is for one 1.25" pinback button with
reproduction artwork
of the insignia of Bill the Cat and Opus the Penguin from one of their
multiple political campaigns.
Tired of electing nothing but fat cats to Washington? How about a
scrawny cat this time? And instead of being at the beck and call
of multi-million-dollar lobbyists, Opus can be bought for the price of
a herring - democracy in action!
From Wikipedia: "Bill the Cat twice won the National
Radical Meadow Party's nomination to run for President of the United
States, in 1984 and 1988, despite being dead in the first instance, and
despite having a vocabulary that mainly consisted of "Aack!" He lost
twice, once because of coughing up a fur ball on Connie Chung. In spite
of this political affiliation, he embarked on a torrid love affair with
Jeane Kirkpatrick, then was later used as the primary source for an
illegal cat-sweat-based baldness cure. His brain was replaced with
Donald Trump's (who had been hit with his yacht's anchor while
sunbathing in New York Harbor)."
This button is appropriate for ANY occasion but especially visits to the
zoo, while donating to your local animal shelter, and of course
political rallies. Perfect stocking stuffer, great on the bow of a Christmas or birthday package!
