The history of Mr. Perks, the pink fiberglass pig, has been
taken several steps further to suggest that anti-tax activist Leon Drolet’s political
prop could be connected all the way to the JFK assassination.

prop could be connected all the way to the JFK assassination.
The ever-astute Ken Braun of the Mackinac Center points
out the flaws in my version of this twisted tail – uh, tale – which began
earlier this week when Drolet was finally apprehended by the coppers for illegally
parking the pig.
Apparently, my version is a few strips of bacon shy of a
plate-load. I made the connection back to the original Mr. Perks, a live pig,
but I failed to oink-out the full story of the current fiberglass version that
Drolet has hauled around the state on a trailer.

Here is Braun’s theory of past events:
“Chad Selweski snoops out even more suspicious
connections between the curious pink pig and other politicians. Good stuff, but
he fails to mention the pig’s role in harassing then-Speaker Andy Dillon for
his role in helping Gov. Jenny with her tax hikes a few years back.

“Coincidentally – or NOT – Dillon was embroiled in a
fight for his political life this week just as Drolet was being busted on a
trumped-up charge relating to the pig’s political past deeds. The suspicions
clearly run deeper than advertised.
“And Dillon, once a Democrat, has since switched over to
work with the GOP. Much like former Texas Gov. John Connelly, who — while
still a Democrat — was wounded by a bullet that hit JFK during the
assassination.

“Of course, if you watch the early portions of the
Zapruder film, you may be able to make out the outlines of a pink fiberglass
pig preceding the presidential motorcade through Dealey Plaza …”
Hmmmm. Something to think about. Could there be a connection between Drolet and Oliver Stone?
