A woman with a foamy cow-head on her hand steps forward. She introduces herself to Churchill as a “video activist and puppeteer.” Her little friend is “Barbara Bovine, a reporter for NO-BS news.” …

Barbara Bovine starts in, saying she’s a mad cow, not because she’s diseased, but “pissed at how my species has been treated.” When she questions him on the morality of paying taxes on things you don’t want to support, such as food, he responds, “I’m going to have to eat you, aren’t I?” Barbara looks perplexed, as much as she can for an inanimate object. “Are you not a vegetarian?” she asks. “Of course not!” he thunders. “I’m of the planet of the carrot. Why would I eat my relatives?”

I thought this guy was a jerk, but someone who could come up with that last line can’t be all bad. Pure comedy gold! In fact, that incident could be an SNL script.
