Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for June 13, 2010
Transcript:
Rick: Too much heavy lifting for a Sunday... maybe I should Twitter. Joanie: How's everything in the blogosphere? Rick: Crowded... but you'll be happy to know I'm becoming less bummed about it. I'm getting over not being a big deal anymore. I guess I must be at that stage of life where you start to let go of all the things you once were... and find yourself talking about your kids' accomplishments instead! Or not. Jeff: Yo, all my accomplishments are classified.

And of dubious authenticity.

Geoff’s greatest accomplishment was becoming famous as the “Red Rascal.” More of him, please.

He’s a legend in his own mind!

I could live without the Red Rascal, like, forever.

Yo, tell ‘em rascal.
Must be between ops. Hope the same thing doesn’t happen to the Redfern’s, that happened to the Israeli assassin.

Don’t want to see any more of those “jack booted” Elian images of the Cuban Rascal.

All his “acomplishments” are not only classified, they’re fantasized!

I asked the NSA to let me know which were real and which weren’t and they sent me a nice letter telling me they never heard of me. That’s OK, I’ll just keep taking my meds.

I can’t believe they let him in the door, but he is nothing that a restraining order wouldn’t fix.

How did this come back to the Obama administration? Talk about off topic?! Someone is way off. Get over it GOP lovers, you lost.
AKHenderson Premium Member over 14 years ago
Since when does everyone stay on topic in these discussions? Ever see Bush get mentioned in the “Annie” threads?

Actually most of Rick’s accomplishments are prosecutable.

When he says “all my accomplishments are classified,” he means “some are classified as felonies, while others are only classifed as misdemeanors.”
montessoriteacher over 14 years ago
I don’t think many do stay on topic. I have just noticed that most of the GOP lovers have always said something about it when someone from the left says something off topic, never the other way around. It seemed time for someone to call them on it for a change. But, I guess they still don’t get it. Typical.

Rick equivocates Heavy Lifting on Sunday with being a Luddite and Twitterer and the Red Rascal is proferred as the counterpoint and the future. Perhaps the real discussion is that between reason and discourse. Oppositions such as Redfern and Twitter with Success and the progeny of his loins: The Red Rascal the Scourge of Islam.

stebon,
Congratulations.

After 40 years, this comic amounts to a very big deal. It’s covered American history from the Vietnam War to the Gulf oil slick. Its commentary is deep enough for it to be on the editorial pages of many papers, instead of with the funnies. It may be annoying at times; but it’s never insignificant.

All his accomplishments are classified.
Good thing, too. Can you imagine what would happen if his “accomplishments” were made public?
montessoriteacher over 14 years ago
Of course this comic amounts to a very big deal. I am baffled by why those who don’t think he is a very big deal bother to read Doonesbury, let alone comment about the strip… What a life. I can certainly find more uplifting things to do than rag on something I don’t enjoy, especially when no one is asking them to read the strip. Some folks need to get a life.

They’re too busy trying to suck the life out of others.

How come he can’t blog with “unamed source”? It worked for Cheney, right? I mean it really couldn’t have been scooter?

Hey, the Obama administration has allowed this kid to roam free in Afghanistan committing crimes and atrocities. Obama’s complete lack of understanding is further emphasized with their failure to do background vetting on Uncle Duke in his role as P.R. man for BP and calling them out.
(hee hee)
