    Why is everything bad always the president’s fault? Don’t those that voted him / her into office bare part of the blame?

    Ah, a parody of the power outage of 2003. I thought I caused the lights to go out by smacking into metal clothes hangers where I was working. I reconsidered it when I saw that the whole block lost power

    More things change more they stay the same. Have a friend who blamed Clinton for everything back then. Now it’s Biden. And if she actually wins next year it’ll be kamila.

    Shouldn’t it be Ghandi’s fault that there was a shortage of India ink?

    For some reason this whole story arc reminds me of The New Adventures of Queen Victoria.

    Wait, this was published in 2003. Bush (Dubya) was President. I don’t think Trudeau was focused on Clinton back then.

    according to Chat GPT:Yes, there was a notable newspaper ink shortage in the early 1990s. Specifically, in 1990-1991, the newspaper industry in the United States experienced a significant shortage of black ink. This shortage was due to several factors, including increased demand, production issues, and supply chain disruptions.

    The shortage had a considerable impact on the newspaper industry, leading some publishers to ration ink, reduce print runs, or limit the number of pages in their newspapers. Some newspapers even experimented with different ink formulations or reduced the amount of color used to conserve black ink. The shortage eventually eased as suppliers ramped up production and the market adjusted.

    Is Garfield known for being the most jingoistic American comic strip?

    Trudeau has always hated Conservatives and Republicans. In his old age now, it seems that Trudeau hates everyone.

    I wish that comic, Baby Blues, was a part of gocomics.
