Bloom County by Berkeley Breathed for June 24, 2020

Stripes and poke-dots don’t usually go together, but I think here, Oliver pull it off.

I wonder why Breathed piled on Ferraro, jeez, the poor lady had to deal with playing second fiddle to Mondale and they both had to take on the Gipper and the man behind the curtain Bush 43…….. At least they carried Minnesota……

I would love to see an episode of “Where Are They Now” showing what a grown-up Oliver is doing these days.

If you don’t remember Ferraro was supposed to bring in women and Catholics- back then it mattered, but many of her stands on social issues were contrary to the Church’s teachings. when asked about this she declared there was room for differing views and still be a ‘good Catholic’ to which the reactionary Cardinal of NY said “No there isn’t” and she was suddenly caught up in a massive swirl of arguments and counter arguments that promptly clotheslined her effectiveness.

Oliver, you are one of the “good pirates”!

“Hold the pickles, hold the lettuce;. Special orders don’t upset us. All we ask is that you let us serve it your way…”

Roger Mudd, there’s a blast from the part

I’d like a complete series on all stages of Oliver’s life. He’d be as much fun as a geezer as he is as a kid.
