[In this column](http://www.straightdope.com/columns/read/950/what-was-the-deal-with-jimmy-carter-and-the-killer-rabbit), **Cecil** describes Jimmy’s failed bid to embark on a second career as a real life Elmer Fudd. Noticing this comment:

I set off in search of said photo. You can see it [here.](http://pun.org/josh/archives/2005/02/uss-swamp-rabbi.html) Note that Bugs appears to be a good 20+ feet away from [del]Elmer[/del] Jimmy and headed _away_ from him in the photo.
