Spooked By Jan 6 Footage, McConnell Withdraws Head Into Shell
Babylon Bee ^ | March 8, 2023

Posted on 03/08/2023 12:13:33 PM PST by McGruff

According to sources, Senator Mitch McConnell became so spooked today by the release of unedited Jan 6 footage that he withdrew his head into his shell and is refusing to come out.

"Oh no! He's scared! It's ok buddy! You can come out now!" said one of his aides, attempting to coax him out with a handful of seaweed pellets. "Shhh--no one's gonna hurt you! The buffalo man is gone! Come on, it's ok!"

Eyewitnesses say the elderly Senator slowly emerged, his big eyes darting to and fro, scanning for danger. Aides were frustrated, however, when McConnell's eyes caught a glimpse of a red baseball cap out of the corner of his eye, which caused him to panic and flip over on his back and kick his legs helplessly in the air.

I would fail the Voight-Kampff test because of my complete lack of empathy for him flipped over like that.

What is that “olice” (police?) tag? Is that on the flag? Did a Capitol Police officer give that flag to him? They were very friendly to him.

Post Turtle

The "post turtle" appellation can be applied to any seeker of high office who is viewed as attempting to rise above his or her native abilities and thus would be as out of place if successful as a turtle on a fence post.

Doesn’t appear to be attached to the flag.

It may be on the plate carrier (vest) that the guy in brown is wearing behind him.

It looked like it might be zip-tied to the flag grommet.
