    Little children, don’t fear as the deer drift awayThough things don’t look promising for Christmas day…Have faith and believe; Cap’t Eddie’s close by.Between him and Paulie in the blink of an eyeThey’ll lasso that ice floe. bring Santa his deer,And get back to Flo’s for a Christmas eve beer.And another tale nobody will believe- except the elves who were there when it happened.

    Oh boy, Oh boy, Oh boy, Oh boy……..I’m looking forward to this one….Oh, and blueskies, Dang!, dude, you’re getting good! Although, I do sense Capt. Eddies imminent appearance, I’m thinking we may have seen parts of it already when Flo asked him if he had any plans for the Holidays…Anyway, rock on Wiley!

    Cap’n Eddie gets my vote; his boat flys on occasion. Obviousman is too obvious, and Danae involved only for unintended consequences. And, is Wiley the last true believer in global warming?

    Santa can just take his big feet from yesterday and walk over to the stupid reindeer. And reindeer do indeed float if you add enough root beer.

    It’s a bummer a talented cartoonist like Wiley needs to campaign for Global Warming and gay marriage and such.

    However, the rapid breakup of both ice caps has been widely documented. Unless that Rhode Island-sized iceberg currently menacing some of the shipping lines is just a really good Hollywood special effect…

    Oh, so that’s what global warming did. Maybe the old guy can spend the next six days inventing a way to reverse the process now that it’s had a profound impact on him.

    Hmmmm, ‘unregulated big business will do the right thing’ is a myth. “Moral” majority is a myth (not to mention an oxymoron) “Good Cristian conservative” is a myth, but global wierding is pretty much proven. THIS cartoon however, is less about politics and more about Christmas though. Lighten up.

    Ah, there’s nothing like a demonstration of worldly knowledge that has been proven with satellite photographs, rooms full of core samples, terabytes of data and monumental ice floes endangering shipping lanes to pull out all of the Faux Spews viewers screaming about how it’s all fake (and providing zero evidence to back it up)…ON A COMIC!

    Oh, and as to the “CHRISTMAS!!!” comment?

    Blessed Yuletide, everyone!

    Thank God for global warming , we have too many Snowbirds in Az. the way it is now. And I don’t think any of us from Minnesota miss the glacier that once covered much of North America.

    The destruction of the polar ice cap could help Santa use Siberian riverboats to ship Chinese goods. Reindeer? Supper for riverboat crews.

    Ice, all over the globe, is disappearing. Scientists just reported that Greenland has risen one inch due to the loss of ice weight holding it down. Glaciers are shrinking everywhere.

    It seems to me that there is no other explanation for this except that the planet is getting warmer.

    If you do not think that the ice is disappearing, read no further.

    If you do agree that the ice is disappearing, but think that the planet is either getting colder or staying at the same temperature, read no further.

    If you are still reading, does this concern you? If not, do not read further.

    If you are still reading, do you think man can do anything to ease your concerns? If not, stop here.

    If you are still reading, help solve the problem and don’t argue the past – that is pointless.

    I always have to wonder how much global warming may have happened during World War Two. When I watch the amount of destruction on the history channel, the environmental damage must have been catastrophic.
