Come with me, come to the land of batshit rightwing cartoonists

They also annoy liberals expecting PC cartoons!

Conservative and PC? Not at all... These cartoons are anything but PC. They are political and, indeed, correct. They also annoy liberals expecting PC cartoons!

ps kingfish kudos for finding a real live crying liberty

and now, a new week begins with this bit of trife fandom:

One of the things that constantly amuses me about these people is vehement authoritarism bit; blindly following authority and feeling completely righteous in virulently attacking anyone who would dare do anything short of immediate submission. Until the point that the authority figure doesn't do shit as crazy as the followers want them to, then that authority immediately is targeted and cast aside.

The movement then searches for another authoritarian leader, and from dubya we go to romney, giuliani, etc.

hmm. that last comment is meant for this one:

http://www.daybydaycartoon.com/052007.jpg

Is Day by Day's art actually getting worse or is the guy from Gaggle doing guest strips this week? Man oh MAN.

haha I THOUGHT THAT WAS GAGGLE

The ethanolic one is interesting. I largely agree... ethanol is replacing one addiction for another. It's an "alternative" energy source that will result in more crazy subsidies, less farmers, more corporate hoonja-doonja, etc. Just give us electric cars, already.

Except of course the point of that strip is likely that we should still with gasoline.

STICK with etc

where's your electricity coming from?

hopefully from also investing in cleaner power sources. Maybe even nuclear, but that's kind of a can open, worms everywhere argument.

ethanol is stupid, a sop to Big Agriculture that pays lip service to environmentalism, and a hugely irresponsible use of arable land (sorry starving people of the world, we gotta drive!)

otm, we're already slathering corn junkies

Gaggle is even more minimalist than DaybyDay:

http://newsbusters.org/gaggle/2007-05-14.png

Non-corn ethanol actually works tho, if you went for a soy/hemp-based fuel, which probably aint happening anytime soon

and a hugely irresponsible use of arable land

which must be fertilized with petroleum products. The whole thing is a smokescreen.

libertarians are right about agricultural welfare...every time i see some 'neck in the parking lot with a f-350 dually that he uses to drive to and from school, i'm like "wait a minute, i paid for that!" and get a little irritated.

xp well, soy based fuel wouldn't help all that much, since a decent chunk of the world's soy comes from deforested areas in Brazil. i mean, growing fuel sounds like a really great idea, but it requires a huge input of energy, perpetuates our addiction to automobiles, encourages monocultural agriculture (already a problem in america), and means that we're using arable land to fill our gas tanks instead of putting food in mouths. recycled biodiesel is A+, but yeah, i'd rather see the money and effort and hype around ethanol being put into electric cars or more fuel-efficient regular cars

we should have an agriculture thread

For today, we have a rash of immigration ones:

lol Jimmy Carter is literally a sack of shit for criticizing the President! He is surrounded by flies! He's the worst person in the world that has a Nobel Peace Prize!

Dude, in the labelling tradition of political cartoons, that must not be Carter but some guy named Bush Worst.

http://www.humanevents.com/images/HomnickCartoon2.jpg

The Carter thing has elicited an astonishing outpouring of bullshit; I only wish he'd have stood his ground.

was that last cartoon drawn by a clever 10-yr-old?

A 10 year old lacking in any knowledge of Cuba's excellent universal healthcare system, apparently...

BUT FIDEL CASTRO, AN 80 YEAR OLD MAN, IS NOT IN PERFECT HEALTH!

DISCO...Barf

fairrington's handwriting doesnt seem to mind disco

and I object to his demonization of sweaters, Carter's or others

I do kinda enjoy the symmetry of it making as much sense to blame Carter for The Sweaters as for any of the other shit they pin on him.

i have to admit i still like that album carter made with giorgio moroder

Hating disco is like a litmus test for whether or not you're a provincial moron.

xpost HA

The Edwards cartoon is odd, as well, since the 4 examples are all ideals that the person in question (arguably) failed to live up to, whereas poverty could never be called something anyone aims for.

And that second cartoonist needs to learn how to spell "seize"- surely that's a cardinal error amongst cartoonists?

Also, i find it amusing that even these schmucks aren't repping for Gonzalez

I didn't know Jimmy Carter was personally responsible for the invention of disco. Was that via some sort of fedral programme or what?

Can we blame GWB for EMO?

I do like the "BARF" actually written out in a cartoon. '80s Mad Magazine had an effect on a lot of people, i see.

The sweaters were nice! I still put on a sweater instead of turning on the heat, Carter's advice was good!

I'm an ignorant Brit who doesn't really know much about American politics. Can one of you tell me which administration it was that bungled issues like UFOs and killer swamp rabbits?

That was the infamous McGillicutty administration. The sentiment for years afterward was that the Irish were never again to be trusted with public office.

yeah, that's another good bit. The drawer is tipping his hand a bit much here.

ok fuck that Carter Deliverance comic.

Snot-nose liberal lifestyle looks pretty good!

The snot-nose liberal woman looks worried about the rise in Popeage, as if the cartoonist feels it's something we all agree upon that can be used as a "gotcha!". "You liberals won't be so happy when the POPE gets more influence around heeeere!" Actually, no, we won't, so maybe he's right.

Heaven's Gate jokes, ladeez & gentlemans, we have Heaven's Gate jokes.

hey, sailor.

I have yet to understand even one of the Faithmouse strips in this thread, from Hillary Chipmunk on down

ok well I get "hey sailor" but the one above it is really wtf

GAY BEAR

They don't make LITERAL sense, you just have to let God inside of your heart, and then you will understand.

I kind of love the faithmouse stuff. It's got style.

no srsly, the one about it is pretty standard "chiristians are victimized by libruls" nonsense, except this time they are as victimized as african slaves.

one ABOVE it

dude has a really oblique thought process or something

I was reading daybyday on my own for a while but I can't anymore, it's too negative now that everything douchebag believes in is being completely dismantled

faithmouse is loco

i have to admit the dude fairington who i kickstarted this whole right wing cartoonists game with is still my favorite, dude combines understandable right wing talking points with non-shitty art and you never get railroaded by that uneasy wtf feeling you have with most of these

right wing talking points make me uneasy

The one about the lawyers makes maybe the least sense of any of these so far. It's just so weirdly... RONG.

http://media.townhall.com/Townhall/Car/b/lb0525cd.jpg

I'm not entirely sure how the Cuban medical system is mainlining lies into the guy. Are they just like "uh, you're better now, never mind that cough" or something?

The one about the lawyers makes maybe the least sense of any of these so far.

it makes perfect sense because there are no Republican lawyers. all lawyers are Democrats.

Right? SO WEIRD. As if lawyers don't fight for both lefty causes and righty ones. Does he think the ACLU invented law or something?

I'm not entirely sure how the Cuban medical system is mainlining lies into the guy.

How could a Cuban do anything BUT lie? And how could Michael Moore do anything but believe in communism?

Spiderman cannot enlist because he is a fictional character.

so that is a personalized faithmouse anti-hotlinking graphic just for this thread

lollll awesome

He sure showed us libruls!!!

hahahahaha

roffle roffle at our very own personalised anti-hotlinking image. If only mr steve had been so creative.

The question is, which BRC will be the next to do this? I doubt anyone of the others have enough of a sense of humour...

our anti-hotlink image needs some glitter animations

That really is awesome! I hope he's read the thread rather than just checked where all the page views are coming from. Whatever his politics a cartoonist has to make sure his visuals get their message across, and Faithmouse seems to be one of the least clear (it's not helped by the drawing style).

Anyway, Dan Lacey, welcome! Please respond to criticism and start a dialogue with us!

that faithmouse thing makes me so happy!!

dan lacey u so cracey

and he kept the swear! that's pretty hardcore for a mouse of faith

I'm waiting with bated breath for Day By Day to do the same.

hasn't he posted here before? or am I getting ILX confused with one of several other forums where I've seen him show up, Derek Smart-style, to respond to discussions of his work?

xpost Dan Lacey, I mean

Lacey showed up on SA, but not here(yet).

Otters Holding Hands For Christ

I'm not seeing the anti-hotlink....?

I'm not seeing the anti-hotlink....?

very top cartoon on the thread used to be an illegal immigrants cartoon, now it is a rainbow mouse saluting that says "come with me to the land of batshit rightwing cartoonists"

it's about 3 places in the thread

OMG, right that. Wow.

honestly v v confused about "otters holding hands for christ"

i mean, yeah, they're mad cute, but where does jesus enter the picture?? is there some sea mammal celibacy movement?

I'm waiting with bated breath for Day By Day to do the same.

haha Yes, it will just be a shapely ass, and nothing else.

wow

I am also ready for hot day-by-day military lesbo action

Don't believe me?

How does anti-hotlinking work? Can you set it to be a certain image if a certain site looks at it, or are there rightwing Xtian Faithmouse-fan forums out there that are now plastered with this image?

It isn't an 'anti-hotlink'; I just thought it would look cool at the top of your thread.

I'm a regular at
Portal of Evil and I also post at a number of other forums as well.

Thanks for posting.

Haha oh man, awesome.

Altho, as a personal note to Dan Lacey:

Dan, every tho the vast majority of us on this board have rather sharp differences with you in terms of politics, worldview, systematic causation, & whatnot, to put it bluntly: at least you can fuckin' draw, a skill sorely lacking in some of your compatriots who have far better syndication deals.

Do we have to fall all over ourselves trying to praise Faithmouse now that he's flattered us with an anti-hotlink graphic? Last I checked he was still peddling half-truths, extremely blurry logic, an obsession with the diabolical ACLU, "Terri Schiavo's murder," and art which, while clean in its linework, is painfully jumbled in its composition. Half the cartoons don't even make sense! I can't even figure out if he's a rabid Catholic or a rabid anti-Catholic bigot. These are not good cartoons, people. He's the guy everybody in high school said was "such a great artist."

i hate bbcode

italics fixed :)

Hey, thanks!

Doctor Casino very much OTM.

Yeah, but it's a relative thing, the good artist label; especially on this thread. Compared with 80% of what's on this thread, he's picasso.

"Batshit rightwing" still applies, but giving dude credit for responding to difference of opinion by doing something NON-batshit and actually kind of cool in response is not fawning over his work. It's just a tip of the hat back in his direction. What is that though, an onion in a safari hat?

Please continue with batshit right wing cartoon posting now.

Faithmouse is art. It's just there for entertainment, mainly my own.
It parallels my opinions but not necessarily so. I have a rep for never flaming anyone, ever, in response to what they have to say about my cartoon. If you go through any of the boards I've posted on you'll see that's true.

Anyway, please continue. It's difficult to keep up on what my fellow batshit cartoonists are doing, so this is a good resource.

Yeah, but it's a relative thing, the good artist label; especially on this thread. Compared with 80% of what's on this thread, he's picasso.

Oh yeah, and even the most suburban, upper-middle-class 3rd-generation Muslim-American Ford auto exec, living in Dearborn with kids at university and a comfortable 401k, secretly has a saif tucked under his pillow for when the revolution comes.

I suppose labeling that dude "humanity" wouldn't be sufficient

Yeah, but it's a relative thing, the good artist label; especially on this thread. Compared with 80% of what's on this thread, he's picasso.

I guess it comes down to, do we hate what these guys do because it's poorly drawn, or because it degrades our public discourse with hate-mongering, obfuscation, elision, name-calling, straw-manning, well-poisoning, and McCarthyism? For me, it's the latter, and the best-drawn ones have always been the most offensive.

In any case though, yes, more batshit, please!

OTM. also, i think you get numbed by all the muck after a while and start to believe that this is how political discourse is supposed to look like. it's not. having said that, there is still some distance to travel before it hits the creepy low of the arabic press:

http://www.adl.org/Anti_semitism/arab/cartoon_022502.gif

I don't think this is "political discourse"; editorial cartoons once had a place where they could cause riots in the streets*. Now, anyone with a scanner and an internet connection can enter the fray and people with no legit training or talent can say the Crrrrrrrrrraziest things. It's populist chatter and it's good to know what this stuff looks like and to get a sense of what depths the POPULAR discourse plumbs, to say nothing of what sort of people and concepts the media are willing to hire to fulfill their strawman agendas, masturbation fantasies, hate fucks, hagiographies and to fill in that chunk of blank space on page 34A.

*yeah, yeah, yeah: Danish Muhammed, but that's an odd and rare case, to say the least.

i use "political discourse" broadly as "the sum of all political discussions in a given region," i.e. encompassing the mainstream as well as the kitchen-sink discourse. if we use a stricter definition i still think these cartoons are symptomatic of how fierce the high-level political discourse is.

Maybe. I honestly don't think they have any more import than your average blog entry... though what that means is open to interpretation.

yeah, but it's not about their importance, it's about what attitudes they mirror. assuming that they mirror something greater than the creator's twisted conceptions, that is.

In some cases on these threads, I don't think we can assume that.

fluxblog or tofuhut

(this is badly organized and fairly stream-of-consciousness and i think i repeat myself a few times, so plz bear w/ me)

These things are mirroring what's said in the greater rightwing noise machine, which is why I pay attention to them as a way of checking in on the land of cracked-out John Birch batshittery.

One of the aspects of the current american RWNM is that the talking points and attacks are identical, from the talking heads on the shouty shows to the bloggers and down to the cartoonists level, so paying attention to the drawings is a quick shorthand(rapidly digested, rapidly passed on) to what the rest of the world.

Are these guys horrible for spreading the shit that gets said elsewhere, and being little more than conduits for the LGF message-boards writ large for what passes for Republican dialogue nowadays? Should we damn them for merely echoing the message, or by giving voice to their personal eternal and intenal font of toxic radicalism and 24/7 cognitive dissonance?

As to their impact, i don't think it's much more than everything else that gets churned out, in terms of message or reinforcement of rightwing strawmen/beliefs, etc. The fact is that some of these are little more than blog posts, and some of them are syndicated nationally(either on op-ed pages or in the comics).

The offensiveness of some of this shit to me is that while it is what I take as a personal attack and as reinforcement of the current debasement of overall dialogue, it's SO seriously fucking lazy, both in terms of actual drawing mechanics(the cut-in-paste mentioned before) and quarter-assed attempts at wit(michaelmoore/algore is fat lol). And the relative lack of the toons that completely lock into to the authoritarian things going on ain't too much, so even the shitty ones are brought to the forefront in an effort to search for balance or whatever.

It's like, yeah many of them blow goats as op-ed cartoons, but their bilious, hatefilled, and heavily anti-american message makes 'em worse.

Political cartooning is a skill extant for over a century & a half(in America, at least), one that can result in art. While there are plenty of half-assed left-leaning toons, this shit adds insult to injury.

But let's not freak out too much over mister faithmouse actually showing up here or our reactions. As the guy who took over posting these things from ethan last year(or whenever it was), I think it's hilarious that one of the cartoonists _actually_ drew a ILX-thread-specific image.

But let's not freak out too much over mister faithmouse actually showing up here or our reactions.

Riiiight...

let's Never Forget... Mr. Faithmouse may be Picasso and whatever, but he's still totally fucking batshit. Hi guys, the man writes cartoons about how Christian he is, and obviously thinks that most people should share his nutty opinions. Let's not get enamored or starstruck (hilarity!) with this nutty Christian dude who can maybe draw but is much more marked by the fact that he hates people who can kill their little babies, because they are obviously little babies and not "choices" and us librruls need to shut up because there is no other side to this arguement.

btw, this is bait...

it appears that the hot dogs have begun to melt and run together towards the bottom. perhaps another experiment in thermodynamics? I think I would've opted to stick 'em in my armpits, but to each his own.

there is a joke here that i am not willing to make.

guys i'm sort of inclined to let these dudes say whatever the fuck they want about john edwards. guy really is sort of a two-faced douchebag.

I don't get his appeal, but the "attacks" the right tends to level at him are of the subliterate "Al Gore is fat/invented the internet haw haw" variety

true. still, dude is at least partly responsible for putting the american flu vaccine manufacturers out of business. way to go, brody.

oops, i've been had!

pwned

whatever, i still don't like him.

i like how the impulse to take to the woods stripped to your boxer shorts is carter's fault too.

God, don't you remember the 70's, when everyone lost everything and millions of filthy, half-naked Joad families took to bare subsistence living or starved to death? DON'T YOU REMEMBER???!

1) It's another standard "media pays attention to the wrong things" riff, which I guess is still somewhat positive that even the most authoritarian followers still have an idea that having a media is a good thing, but

2) complaining about them covering pointless shit and not, say, U.S. troop deaths when they've spent _years_ vociferously supporting the assholes who've completely prohibited coverage of returning coffins, who go out of their way on a pretty much weekly to downplay loss of life("why, we lost FAR more in WWII, what are these DFH complaining about?!") and overall sacrifice that a very few american citizens are having to make b/c of all this, and who deliberately want a Murdoch-style bullshit tabloid media where entertainment is now information, etc.

I'm actually beginning to think these people are like those skinnerboxed raised-by-wolves/locked-in-the-basement kids who can learn vocabulary but can only barely use grammar patterns, there's some part of their childhood development that left them unable to process anything besides the authoritarian-believer mindset that kingfish keeps alluding to

The Obama one is fun, since it conflates the boogeyman of universal healthcare AND tort reform. Market idolatry is so ingrained with these guys that anything which could possibly affect the success of the successful(incl. people suing when they get fucked over by sucessful cretins) must be commie-nism and therefore destroyed.

Oh yeah, and all trial lawyers are hairy white dudes.

In gay mixed race relationships apparently.

But I keep talking about the mindset b/c I think it deserves more attention, both as pointing out how the many of the power holders in america are pretty much the LGF comment section writ large, as well as drawing more attention to a less-articulated & more traditonally American progressive view of things(e.g. that we the people can fashion a public service that examines the kind of shit that going into food and pharmaceuticals, a service not entirely staffed by clueless apparatchiks loyal only to the Party).

And also that the problem isn't so much just dubya/cheney/etc, they're out office in 18 months or so. The problem is the mindset of modern american conservatism itself, with all of its simplistic, xenophobic, empiricism-rejecting and authoritarian aspects.

thing is guys, though, we need tort reform

check this out kingfish, if you agree with most of what lindsey's saying about the economic and demographic roots of our current clusterfuck, we might not have these problems for much longer; also, we'll all be poor, but hey.

gucci little piggy?

if you agree with most of what lindsey's saying about the economic and demographic roots of our current clusterfuck

certainly sounds convincing

I have a personal bias bcz I just really enjoy blaming the baby boomers for absolutely everything currently shitty about America

that is because they are to blam,e not just in america but all over the west and they won't fucking let go, they have their death grip around, society culture and politics so hard and they are pulling us down into their macabre zombie dance.

I'll check the Econ piece in a bit, but I think we're going to be plenty fucked for a good while. It's one of those things that I was talking about on another thread; that in America, we have to go thru intense shit once a generation(or every so often) before we give a fuck about our culture & politics. then we spent years of blood and sweat and warface to finally boost everything up again, before our kids come along and ruin it all somewhere down the line, and their kids have to fix it one more.

Still, it'll be interesting to see what happens when a significant enough portion of the populace realize they're now "working poor" as opposed to "middle class". I think the howling angst will generate such a loud thrashing to make the most rightwing batshit cartoon in this thread look like a Buckley column.

xp

okay, i agree. it's like, jesus christ, grandpa and grandma had to go thru all this shit, make it so that we had GI bills, unions, and whatnot just for my dad to come along, attend a public university on a GI bill and a living wage, join a teachers union when he got out, and then vote repub for the rest of his life(barring the Perot vote).

Has anyone else noticed that the cartoon at the start of this thread appears to have been changed somewhat?

Atheists and Islamic Fundamentalist Gamblers: BFF FOR LYFE.

they are casting lots to see who gets to strip the pubescent boy, see

Man the trannies always get the best accessories.

Plus an angry black bear lives in Islam Conversion's turban.

(Or in Militant Homosexuality's butt. I can't tell which.)

Militant homosexuality copping a feel there

"You see, children, there are different types of critical thinking: Athiest, Christian, and Sorcery, to name just a few."

not the first time on this thread, but i'm offended! in several different ways! it is kind of fun to read all the labels though. nice to get so many all shoved together, and how surprising to see islamic conversion and atheism cuddling so happily.

They both like to roll th' bones.

Damn critical thinking, this is what it gets ya

Where do I get me an 'Atheism rules' t-shirt?

fuck that I want the whole image on a t-shirt in full color

I believe that's 'bonkie' the evolution mascot back there.

Haha, I've only just noticed the rather serious monkey.

SORCERY???? Are they trying to shoot their point down?

Fucking predatory witches, cruising by the schoolyards in their flying chariots -- STAY AWAY FROM MY CHILDREN.

I see that drugs are no longer a major concern.

Crack's worn a bit thin, and the inner-city kids have moved on to crystal balls and gowns with stars and moons on. jesus, don't you read the papers?

from blessedcause.org:

Samantha's mom wrote her a note to "opt out" of the 7th grade Islam course. When Samantha handed her teacher the note, the teacher became angry, held up the note and shouted at the class, "Is there anyone else!?"

Is there ANYONE FUCKING ELSE? I'm sorry I meant IS THERE ANYONE. FUCKING. ELSE. !?

Close runner-up to the crucifixion scene; definitely batshit.

visual metaphor parsing error: does not compute

Eh?

Should Atheism Rules and Atheist Critical Thinking both be in the same cartoon? This kid needs to work harder coming up with bogeymen - not to mention the dependency on dubious movements like Sorcery. Schools everywhere are getting forced into teaching creationism as a scientific theory, that's fine, but no school anywhere caves to the sorceror lobby and suddenly it's a national crisis.

The Egypt one makes NO sense. Does this guy not understand that in the Bible story, Moses and the Pharaoh are on different sides? It's kind of key. They might as well just start taking illustrated Bible stories and firing a label-maker randomly all over the page.

still the whip of atheist critical thinking

Does this guy not understand that in the Bible story, Moses and the Pharaoh are on different sides

No, Moses is down here in the corner Mystery Science Theatre 3000 style. And so he's parting the waters to lead them little children away from them Islamists and gays.

To be honest, I think YOU are the one who doesn't get it. And I'm not just talking about the sorcerist lobby which you conveniently deny. I'm also talking about all the talking monkeys teaching in our schools nowadays.

The snail and the starfish seem fairly nonplussed at the goings-on.

http://www.blessedcause.org/images/edugod3.gif

SORCERY FUN!

I'm guessing the sorcery thing is some kind of anti-Harry Potter rant

Y'see, these are the guys that Chris Hedges talks about

Wish there were "sorcery fun" classes when I was in school!!

also pharaoh/moses appears to be a roman charioteer, which bugs me as well . must be because that guy has avoided being struck by "CRITICAL THINKING".

No, Moses is down here in the corner Mystery Science Theatre 3000 style. And so he's parting the waters to lead them little children away from them Islamists and gays.

Right, but... the only figure seen traveling through the parted waters is Pharaoh's Public Schools (represented as a Roman charioteer, admittedly) - while the waters themselves represent the similarly EVIL "Convert" and "Gay Pride." So is Pharaoh parting the waters for himself? I'd say I wish there was a label on whatever it is that's causing the chariot wreck, but inevitably it would be a used copy of SORCERY FUN. Ooooooof. Between this guy and the one who does the furryesque, motto-laden politician portraits, it's been a pretty good hunt lately.

Setting aside the batshit vision of educational content, I also wonder about this person's grasp of educational policy. Why is it, for example, that TAXES are what keep the children from fleeing to their beloved CHRISTIAN SCHOOL and HOME SCHOOL? And if they are stuck there, why is there a VACANCY on the door? Maybe the tattoo on DEPT OF EDUCATION's bicep holds a clue, but as far as I can tell it says "EDUGRODE" which isn't very illuminating. It's a shame this artist seems to be kind of a one-issue nut - surely the grim spectre of CRITICAL THINKING has infected other sectors of our once-great nation? It's such a great bludgeon, in any case; any time someone raises concerns about your work - any kind of concerns! - you can claim they've been corrupted by CRITICAL THINKING...

Jumping back above, I love how a single man is both NEA and CALIF DEPT OF EDUCATION. Meanwhile, MILITANT HOMOSEXUALITY is even groping the crucified BODY OF CHRIST, which oddly enough looks very little like any depiction I've ever seen of the BODY OF CHRIST. Isn't it customary in these cartoons to take easily recognizable images with strong metaphorical impact and then label them with something other than what they'd normally be? BODY OF CHRIST is a little on the nose, don't you think?

Wow, that guy.

"Maybe the tattoo on DEPT OF EDUCATION's bicep holds a clue, but as far as I can tell it says "EDUGRODE" which isn't very illuminating"

I think it's EDUGODS. Because, like science and Darwinism, education is just another kind of religion that worships thunderbolt throwing Greek gods. And where are those Greek gods now, eh?

Two months later, why not have another "I can't understand why black people can say words Don Imus can't" strip?

I don't even get it - native american women are selling all their casinos and opening restaurants?

i think the setup is supposed to be that you think "wow those NM's are really well off, eating in a fancy restaurant and all" and then the punchline is that they OWN the restaurant.

Cartoonist clearly has no idea how many resaurants end up as failed business ventures -- very expensive ones. Owning a restaurant is no guarantee of solvency, in fact rather the opposite.

yeah still not funny.

Jeffrey Feldman wrote about the same kinda thing as what's going on in the cartoon, the conflation/transference of the "War on Terror" to the "War on Jihadism", which connects up quite nicely to the "culture war" thing that powered rightwingers for a coupla decades now.

This may be unpopular-but I have a lot of sympathy for Paris Hilton, influenced at least partially by her recent high-profile public appearances with a Bible and reports that she's praying while in jail. My previous Paris Hilton cartoon alluded to the fact that her great-grandfather Conrad, founder of Hilton Hotels, was a very committed Catholic.

I had to look up what Jude is the Saint of. Lost causes, it seems.

i like how creme brulee is somehow a universal rich person food signifier? like, why not caviar or something?

old skool, not as funny as "cream broolay"

creme brulee is fucking awesome.

I dunno if faithmouse guy actually qualifies as right-wing anymore, he just seems to be a Big-Time Believer and doesn't participate as much in the incredibly knee-jerk authoritarian partisanship you see in the other strips. Compared to mallard etc. he's a breath of fresh air.

i find it highly ironic that they keep trumpeting Jimmy Carter's alleged irrelevance while at the same time parsing his every word.

Only Mallard Fillmore could think that the USSR broke apart because of only either Reagan or magic. LOL ECONOMICS DO NOT EXIST

x-post

Yes, why isn't the American media talking more about Reagan? Perhaps some kind of "liberal bias"?

It's as if he's been erased from the history books!

We MUST put him on the dime!

I wouldn't have a problem with Reagan on a coin.

I think Reagan's most enduring legacy is doing the best Merkin Muffley impersonation of any president ever.

"Russia may be at its most bellicose since the Cold War ended because RUSSIA COULDN'T FUCKING FEED ITS OWN PEOPLE."

i would have a problem with Reagan on a coin

I wouldn't have a problem with Reagan on a coin because it means Alex in NYC will finally get to go break Peggy Noonan's knees with his shiny hammer made of melted-down Reagan coins

because C-130s fly too high to get pegged by modified RPGs!

hilarious!

nobody in iraq misses their families, or gets killed! they just hate the democrats! that's why they're so glad to be out in the shit, because at least they're far away from democrats!

I would have more of a problem with Reagan on a coin than any other president ever.

Even Nixon?

saddest thing about those strips: didn't even have the decency to include some T&A

xpost Only Nixon can go to China

LBJ should be on the dime

Nixon on a coin would be great because then you could use them as "fuck you currency" whenever you want to implicitly state that a particular vendor of goods or services can go and fuck themselves, like paying the phone bill with a box of pennies, only moreso

You could "give them the Richard", as it were!

even accidentally using nixon money in any other situation would constitute a gross breach of etiquette

It could also be used for bribes, backhanders, slush funds etc.

I'd like to pay for that $9 pack of cigarettes with a few Nixons

except perhaps vending machines. people would keep their nixon coins separate from the rest of their change to avoid giving them to other human beings, reserving them for machine coffee, cherry pepsi and little busted-up bags of fritos

they could all be two faced and called "tricky dicks" (sorry)

The extra fun thing about DbD is that the fuckhead reportedly went over there a coupla months ago to "check shit out for himself", Malkin-style.
