Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for June 26, 2019

Something… someone… Russia.

Shouldn’t Rat be in that box? He’s the one we want to send away, and I’m sure someone could bribe those agents…

And to where could Pig be shipped? Somewhere or Jewish or Islamic where swine isn’t a delicacy?

If only we had Rat to sell people on the concept!

“Y’know, I’ve been proposing we build a southern border wall for years now,” said the Canadian.

Congress finally passed a law that they thought would benefit themselves, but fell into the loophole that gave the country freedom from their idiotic logic.

“We gots the fools in town on our side, and ain’t the fools always in the majority?” Mark Twain.

Also, if you like gutter level politics, read ’The Fools In Town Are On Our Side" by Ross Thomas.

When I was younger I traveled a litte. I never visited a country that hadn’t enough idiots of their own.

No! Please don’t send them to Canada! We have enough of them in office already!

“…to a country that doesn’t have enough” I think I see a problem here.

Pig, look out! Soylent Pink America… is SPAM! Pig! PPPIIIGGGG!!!!!!!

Maybe we should accept that, collectively, we’re not that bright.

Rat should be in the box not Pig……. Croc Power !

So it’s not about trading hats?

It seems that every town has more than its share of Village Idiots. Who else would watch the shows that are on television most of the time?

So where are we sending the 2020 Democrat presidential candidates?

The idiots are the men in shades. They wrote the return address where the postage goes on the box!

Now that is a program I could really get behind.

Pig will soon join Nermal in Abu Dhabi!

I have bad news for you. All countries all full of humans and, by definition, are way over their quota of idiots.

Sorry, but the whole world is full of idiots. (Intelligent readers of this strip excluded, of course.) It would just be one big shuffle from box to another. Eventually, we’d get all of our idiots back again and have to start all over.

If only……

Oh, I like this explanation MUCH better; it makes more sense.

Oooh. I so wished it worked that way….

But no one else wants our Congress … how we gonna trade?

They forgot rat.

Democrats will claim ‘voter suppression’ .

That wouldn’t leave a whole lot of Americans left. Just read social media for a week.

What country has a shortage of idiots? I would immigrate in a heartbeat!

Finally, something we have in abundance.

Pig Life ”(The next episode plays in background)”

If only.

That would clear out the west coast cities LOL

oh, pray tell, what country is lacking in idiots?

Anybody that believes that cap and trade will solve global warming belongs in that box.

Pig would be nowhere near the top of my list of idiots to trade.

Similar to the Box o’ Stupid People from an early strip.

Rat alone would be a country’s quota.

Ship him to Fiji! They love pigs there!

I never thought I’d vote for President Rat.

We have had a couple of dozen commentators point out that all the world has a surplus of idiots, which is true. The sad thing is that we are ALL idiots, every one of us, even the smartest, even the wisest.

What is worse, we are stupid not just at things we do poorly but at things we do well. Albert Einstein (a sloppy dresser, so so husband, and mediocre mathematician) was brilliant enough to see that matter and energy are the same thing, that time can be slowed and mass can be increased, and a whole lot of other things I am too stupid to understand — yet even he and a century of brilliant minds that followed him could not reconcile gravity with the rest of existence.

This universe is rife with primitive, single-celled (or equivalent) life forms. It probably contains large numbers of planets with advanced life — like cabbages. It is even likely to have other intelligences comparable to or slightly more advanced than us.

Does it have any truly intelligent beings?

Ohhh, if only. Except I’m not sure any country “doesn’t have enough”.

Insery Donald Trump joke here

Bye bye, Pig! Don’t forget to send a picture postcard of your glamorous new home….

(If only it were so easy!)

Plenty of libtards to put in that box.

Yay finally
