Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for August 29, 2009

“I tell ya, I don’t get no respect!”

For those who care about such things, and we all should, the correct abbreviation of “little” is not Lil’ despite what any rapper might say. It is Li’l .

Gary hasn’t mentioned health care yet, but “death squad” is close to “death panel,” and the government runs them.

Redfern can be “point-man” of the team.

Hey laughaday, chillax…rappers are part of a subculture thumbing their noses at your dominant culture & getting paid while doing so. You think they really care about your stinkin correct abbreviations ?

Ah Ollie north, a true hero to the rightwing hat, fear racists mob. This guy sells arms to Iran( arming the terrorists) and he’s a hero to the teabaggers, afterbirthers and the dopes who don’t want Govt to touch their medicaid.

Well, no one has said it yet and I can’t resist:

Cry “Havoc,” and let slip the dogs of war.

@Ushindi, don’t you think that Trudeau thought of this when he named the character?

Or as Esther Friesner was fond of saying:

“Cry CHEEBLE, and let slip the hamsters of war!”
