Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for November 29, 2008

Poor B.D., he has heard the sirens call.

A good example of why I’m still a Republican, you know - (wink).

…and a good example of why I don’t pal around with religious fundamentalism.

Hedg, O-mi-gosh check out your family tree , I bet there’s plenty of zealots there - even a few “commie” ones.

…and a good example of why I think ignorance runs rampant in GT’s strips and comment postings, y’know (wink)

yes she can! yes she can!

wait…

Two things better than Doonesbury: a belch and a scratch (anywhere).

So Trudeau spends his time attacking a VP candidate that lost the election. I’ll bet most people can’t name the losing VP candidate from the last 4 elections. What Trudeau’s behavior and the behavior of most of the left indicates is that they believe that Sarah has the potential to connect with people in a way that very politicians can and put the conservative right back in power. The left fears Sarah like they fear their mothers pointing a finger at them as saying that their morals or behavior is bad.

Lawrence, Desultory:

You betcha!

Lawrence, you’re absolutely correct. The thought that someone so unbdereducated and uninformed could just charm their way into the White House is terrifying.

Hey, B.D., is there anything interesting going on behind her?

The idea that Sarah Palin is unbdereducated (sic) and uninformed is a media constuct. Example: we have only been shown about 2% of the Couric interview which was six hours over two days. Example: Letterman and Leno for two weeks before the election - negative Palin jokes -174. Negative Biden jokes -7.(Negative Obama jokes, comments, whatever: 0. Ever.)

The plethora of Palin jokes is neither intentional nor accidental, but simply unavoidable.

garry t has only been writing this strip for what-30-40 years and won a pulitzer prize. he can’t be too smart. WINK

Bognor: I just love the mantra - “What we believe happened is substantiated by the fact that it wasn’t on the video of the event!” (Ergo, there really were WMDs, which is supported by the fact that we couldn’t find them!)

S.P. made bumbling responses to serious questions, and they were shown to us just as they would have been for any Presidential candidate.

If Biden, Obama, or McCain had been unable to name a Supreme Court decision, we would have known immediately.

Well ‘righties’, I hope your ‘hockey mom’ does go for it next time cuz it will be a shoe-in for the left. We just had 8 years of ‘fundamentalist idiot-ology’ governing and look where it put us. Never again!

Lawrence, Until now, no Vice Presidential candidate has refused to give up the spotlight after they LOST and acted as if they were the future of their party. BD is clearly insane if he thinks Caribou Barbie is the future of the Republican Party. If she is, the Democrats will have a lock on the White House for 40 years!!! We fear her like we fear a whoopee cushion, and we know that she is just as qualified to be President as one.

She’s a half-baked Alaskan.

… and a good example of beating a dead horse. (Or is that elephant?)

It’s a dead moose, dear.

longtimecomicsfan, try telling all the dead Kurds that there were no WMD’s
