The Rabbit King

        There once was a newly chosen king over the great United Rabbit Kingdom. This new king was such a smooth talker, he could convince the rabbits that skunk weeds taste like carrots. The liberal rabbit news center worshiped the rabbit king, and every hour they polished his golden crown.

        The king offered change, such as free carrots and cabbage for all the rabbit citizens. The happy citizens loved their new King, and the black furry, floppy-eared king proudly sat upon his diamond-studded throne in the great white tower, located in the Rabbit District of Columbia.

        Within the first year, the new king hired numerous dishonest helpers, and he established unwanted laws that cost billions of cabbage heads.           The rabbit citizens began to question the king’s unworthy ruling methods, and they're questioning his bloodline and his religious beliefs. Many of the rabbit citizens believe the new king worships the sinful Wolf religion. The evil wolves enjoy hunting the fluffy cute rabbit citizens and brutally killing them. Maybe the king is a wolf in disguise, or he’s just dumber than a box of camel hair.

        All the rabbit citizens are waking up to the fact that their king is rat-wolf villain who's taking away their freedoms and their wonderful way of life. The king is messing up their free trade cabbage system, their long-eared health system, and their small cabbage businesses. Millions of rabbits cannot find jobs, families are homeless, carrots are too expensive, and cabbage investors are afraid to invest. Many of the rabbits are forming liberty groups to oppose the king and his evil rat helpers. Soon they will vote the king and all his crooked rats out of the great white tower.

    Kids, the morel of my story is: Don’t trust a politician wearing a shiny gold crown on his head.
