Peanuts by Charles Schulz for February 19, 2025

If George Washington were alive today, he would very very old and tired.

Facts

If George Washington was alive today he’d be really, really old.

Most likely an immortal, or maybe a vampire.

If George Washington were alive today, he’d be rolling over in his grave.

A party? YES! But would they be eating CHERRY pie?

??????George Washington was born on February 22, 1732.Who would be invited?

’Specially ruler thieves.

You wouldn’t want to be around the people who are invited, either. At any time in history.

I cannot tell a lie, I probably wouldn’t want to attend, anyways.

My brother’s birthday was on Washington’s Birthday. He used to tease me, saying, “MY birthday is on Washington’s Birthday…the greatest president…founding father…we even live in a white house. YOUR birthday is on the anniversary of the Great Chicago Fire & other disasters.” The funny thing is, as an adult he was in a horrible accident & lost chunks of his memory. He forgot everyone’s birthdays – including his own kids – except mine! He called me almost every year on my birthday. (RIP Larry…I miss you. 1961-2023)

If Washington was alive today, he’d be a total mummy!

Washington’s Birthday is 3 days from now, and President’s Day was 2 days ago.

Schools used to get George Washington’s birthday off.

Can’t we have a President born the 2nd week of August and celebrate Presidents day then?

Sure, we’ll call it Emperor’s Day!

You’re probably right, Sally.

Trump will sign an executive order making June 14th a national holiday.

Happy birthday, you white supremacist, slave-owning, genocidal piece of—

Especially not Franklin.

Haha lol bro

By the way u roasted your self

And the cats over at Breaking Cat News are celebrating Abe Lincoln.

He might still be alive, after all, he’s still collecting Social Security

Everyone should be at that party.

a little ray of sunshine she is

Surprise! Sally got “Mount Vernon” right!

Nah, Washingtons Birthday is on Saturday ! ;-)

I can think of someone else who wouldn’t be invited either…

In fact, in the future, we’re going to have to change the holiday name to “President’s Day, except for…”

Washington became a millionaire as a hemp farmer

I was in college when the date of the US holiday was changed to create a three-day weekend. A group of us decided to celebrate “the changing of Washington’s birthday.” We went to my parents’ hunting cabin on Massenutten Mt. in VA. And got snowed in. 7 people in a one-room cabin with electric heat (sort of,) 2 overhead lightbulbs, a water spigot, a hot plate, and an outhouse. But that wasn’t the worst of it. We had my brother’s cassette player… and only one cassette.
