03/ 8/12 06:29 PM ET  AP

DAKOTA CITY, Neb. -- McWashington needs a new home.

The top bidder for a McNugget that resembles President George Washington has chickened out of the $8,100 deal.

Speight says she has had the McNugget stashed in her freezer for three years and decided to sell it on eBay to help raise money for a drive to send children to church camp this summer.

Speight says eBay rules allow her to offer the McNugget to the second-highest bidder, who had offered $8,000. If that falls through, she can offer it to the third-highest bidder and so on. She has 60 days to decide what to do.

People with more money than brains, buying things from people with far too much spair time, looking at chicken nuggets from every angle before popping the poison into their mouths.

This is the epitome of how much our society has fallen. It's a chicken nugget for crying out loud! Eat the damn thing and move on! There are far more pressing issues in the world...

People starving in the world and this is "news worthy" information.
You could make a difference in a poor persons life with $8100.

Well, the latest news regarding the chicken Mcnugget makes me feel better. I couldn't get anything remotely resembling an 8K bid for my original, signed and dated, 20 X 26 sketch of MM.

They grind live baby chickens by the way to make nuggets.

I'm not sure that looks so much like George Washington, it's a closer resemblance to Helen Thomas.

And the rest of the box of McNuggets from that order looked like the founding fathers...

I just fried an egg that somehow, miraculously, and very likely as a result of some divine guidance, now looks like a near-exact replica of the face of raymond burr.
rather than eat this incredible thing, i'm going to have it cryogenically frozen, then put it up for auction on-line with bidding starting at $5000.
the winning bid will be donated to the superPac of your choice.
