In the days of market gunning for ducks and geese, the market hunters had a large box with corn containing Judas Ducks. They were live birds that the shooters would let go to fly up into a flock of passing birds, and swing them down into the blind to be slaughtered, not unlike many in our society who lead people to slaughter with their incompetence and mistaken direction in finance, politics and life. Ski while making money.

JUDAS DUCK
In the old days of market hunting for duck and geese, the shooters would sit in a blind with their Judas Duck, a trained, live bird that would take off and find a flock overhead. This duck was quite unusual, it would fly up to a passing flock, join the head of the flock, and lead the ducks down to the decoys to be slaughtered, for the restaurant markets. Does the Judas Duck remind you of present day characters in Washington and on Wall Street? Does the Judas Duck remind you of any lawyers you know, real estate agents, financial advisors, stock salesman, mayors of major cities, secretary of the US Treasury, heads of major Wall Street banks, past generals (Does General Custer come to mind?), financial gurus in our midst, talking head rapid mouths on TV, jerks preaching on a street corner, beware of the Judas Duck, he or she may be in your neighborhood, LandMan.
