"Poor Pickins"
| A small boy is pointing at an overweight man, representing Lee Sherman Dreyfus (June 20, 1926 – January 2, 2008) who was an American politician and member of the Republican Party, serving as the 40th Governor of Wisconsin from January 4, 1979 to January 3, 1983. He is dressed in black suit and signature red vest, holding a sledgehammer. Text above the child's head reads: "Why don't you go on a low income diet and get a better understanding of poverty?" The man is holding a piece of paper with "L.D. Poor Pickins" written on it. |
