Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for February 09, 2011

And the republicans and democrats go marching on!

I find that ‘maybe’ just gets ignored, and ‘yes’ and ‘no’ quickly resume their fight.

At least under the new Health Care Law, getting thrown off of a cliff, won’t be seen as a pre-existing condition!

Not an Art , its a Process… and needs some work.

They certainly agreed on one thing: that “Maybe” weirdo has to go.

And with WikiLeaks we now know:

Yes=Mostly, except weekends No=Hey, I’m Easy and Maybe=’I so own you’

Got to love that transparency

Danged third parties,

Too bad the third guy wasn’t wearing t-bags.

Sad but true that peace usually has to be imposed through violence. (Or at least the threat thereof.) If you want those two to stop fighting, you’d better come armed with a big club!

Must have been the first “Marriage Counsellor” LOL

Can’t believe he fell for it…..

The 2-party oligarchic cosmetic democracy that fools most, and enslaves us all is still alive and well

And the first marriage was between two men?

That falls under the category of: Be careful what you ask for.

hey Potrzebie who said I wear tea bags?? :-)

FishStix:

And you wonder why normal people don’t suck up to you. And then you endlessly whine.

Go back to the perfectly respectful and fulfilling avocation of fishing. Fishermen when fishing are wise and wonderful.

When you start baiting decent people you flee wisdom and wonder.

Now “Yes” and “No” need to jump right after “Maybe”.

Plus4, may I offer an amendment? Lock the dems and reps in a room and hang the survivors for murder. Peace at last!!

Third Guy, not Thirdguy, Thirdguy. And notice that all three are MALES! lol! Wiley, very funny, but very true…. and I can’t decide if I should laugh or cry…

Several days ago, Calvin & Hobbes showed a cartoon in black and white. Although it was written many years ago, it was reprinted recently, to describe people who see no gray areas–only black and white. Was this portending today’s Non Sequitur? Creepy!

Come on y’all. Let’s y’all fight. I’ll sit back rofl.

And the citizenry keeps getting caught in the crossfire between the Jets and the Sharks.

It’s more fun to refuse compromises–until your side loses.

Compromise really is the art of finding the common ground–what most of both sides can live with, and ideally some solution neither really had considered that gives them both more than half their demands.

But it’s not always easy. Which is when that cliff edge is tempting…

And Sturgeon’s “Occam’s Scalpel” Richard.

Compromise means everyone is just a little unhappy and the selfish generation can’t stand even a second of unhappiness and wouldn’t know how to live without the fear of losing happiness which, conversely, makes them constantly unhappy.

Ask bmonk about JOY however. different story altogether.

Who would say “wait until he hits common gorund”? These comics are full of violence…pointless violence! Thx! Fer Lefer…whats a name like that? LoveUGodBless, T and J KABBALAH MATTHEWSHEPARD MADONNALICIOUS

In some cases, two parties only get along if they have a mutual enemy.

Remove the enemy and the two parties go back to feuding.

The trick to getting the two parties to compromise is finding the a mutual enemy which is distant enough that they can’t throw it over a cliff.

its not the fall that kills you its hitting the ground that kills you.

That’s awesome. Common ground that we can agree on. :D

Country has become so polarized by parties, there are so many “maybe”ers tossed off a cliff. I think there is room for the Greenpeace left and creationist right to go off and form their own parties. Not everyone agrees with the extremes.

Of course its possible that the compromise position is wrong and one of “yes” or “no” are correct…
