And may father and auntie Nell receive additional tax breaks, and also allow bailouts for all father's international banking concerns... Oh, and eliminate assistance to the 47% and perhaps some of trickle-down effect will get them off there behind...

I think that this comic strip should stay out of politics. We want to be entertained not tried to be led to believe one way or the other on politics. We get enough of that every day.

I’m glad the strip is reminding people who might not otherwise notice (e.g. they watch F*x ‘News’) what an evil, greedy, out-of-touch candidate the Republicans have.

I for 1 have enjoyed the politics discussed in this storyline. I’m actually LOL which most comics fail to do.

Darn Republicans,not like the evil,greedy,out of touch,self righteous and arrogant Democrats like we have here in Illinois.Oh sorry,I forgot your messiah Obama is a spawn of that same crooked machine.Let the Chief socialist,oops,I mean “community activist” get back to spreading the wealth of his donors and let some one get this country out of this mess.

Romney, Ryan, Obama, and Biden, all are probably some pretty decent guys. It’s their bosses (the parties) that scare me.

Whoops! He forgot new nearly-free mining rights on public lands for uncle Cecil and contracts to provide the pentagon with $500 dollar toilet seats for uncle Lyman.

I’m glad this is Saturday and this arc is (hopefully) over. I enjoy this comic most of the time, but when the writer is this blatant in who his choice is come November, it really makes me think twice about keeping it on my list. I’ve dropped other comics for this, don’t want to drop this one.And for those who complained about President Obama being called messia, I think the term is apt in that regardless of what he says or does, there are a mass of people who will blindly follow him on faith alone, regardless of the consequences.

The funniest thing is that most people that vote for Obama don’t really like him that much anymore. The blind following is just desperately trying to keep psychopaths like Romney out of office.
It’s like choosing a kick in the shin over one in the balls.

The purpose of comics is to make you think a little and laugh. I remember reading the Far Side and having to look up words in the dictionary to get the joke. I’m voting for Ahmadinejad since he will need a new job next year.

I think Sedgewich could go trick or treating as a troll. He wouldn’t need much in the way of makeup.

After reading all comments, the anti-Romney folks are, as a group, snarky.How can I take you seriously if all you can do is trash your opponent? That all you got?

I read comics to laugh and escape the real world for a few minutes. When this strip stays away from politcs it is one of my favorites. It is genuinely funny and is one of the few comics that makes me laugh out loud. When it gets into politics it is polarizing, and takes the enjoyment away. And the dimwit liberal sycophant replies make it worse.

Dude,I’m a registered thinking Democrat,not just a sheep like you.

I love Christmas lights. They remind me of the people who voted forObama. They all hang together, half of them don’t work, and the onesthat do, aren’t that bright.
For those who understand, no explanation is needed. For those whodo not understand – no explanation is possible.

Squerrel…Hey, he, a black man was able to win the Presidency…Given the history of our culture in the United States, That is a bigger miracle than Mother Theresa ever did! He proved it was possible. That is great news for every loyal American…except for those who don’t like the idea of a minority being in that position……
They don’t believe he’s from Kenya, They just hate him beyond all rationality. Their “reality” is a strange and terrible place…They really are freaking paranoid, They say such wildly crazy things. Completely out of touch with reality….Living in an echo chamber stunts their growth, evidently……..

I agree with the last panel, in part anyway. But what really bothers me is those within that 47% that work and earn a good living, enough that they would be considered very wealthy compared with most of the world, and still pay no federal income taxes. That kind of assistance needs to end.
