I guess that bears, at least black bears, are much like politicians that display bare essential behavior. They can’t be trusted and they often hide behind a fenestrated non-sequitur, hoping that we won’t see, or at least we won’t dwell on what they’ve been caught doing. Both are easily frightened. Black bears are easily misled and sometimes run from their shadow. Admittedly that mostly happens when they eat mushrooms. Politicians are afraid of not getting re-elected and sometimes the stuff that comes out of their mouth makes me think that they too have been into the magic mushrooms. Still, you paint an amusing picture of a massive black bear hiding behind shrub. How does the shrub feel about it?
