For those who don’t remember, this strip is a takeoff of the comment that led to Secretary of Interior James Watt’s resignation. Regarding the lack of need for affirmative action, he said regarding a certain panel, “I have a black, a woman, two Jews and a cripple. And we have talent.” Yet another time where Breathed didn’t need to exaggerate reality for comic effect. He just needed to more or less quote it.
