Ben Franklin wanted the turkey to be the national bird. He thought they had better character, and they’re New World critters.

But since the Romans, we’ve had an unhealthy fixation on eagles.

(Walid Phares, to an overstressed underslept blonde Fox anchorperson, as the US invasion of Iraq began: “Many nations have eagles.”)

Canada has the loon.
