Broom Hilda by Russell Myers for June 15, 2012

Good question, Nerwin.

Good morning, LB.

I wonder how often he takes a bath?

MARG! Aren’t you glad you don’t live in Dallasafter the hail storm they recently had? The dentson the cars were the size of golf balls.

… yer not a politician yet, Nerwin … patience, patience!

Ahh, the stern Auntie Broomie of panel 4 is a delight (except to Nerwin)!

Politicians have richer sponsors.

The dark symmetrical arch above is a nice touch.

Nerwin, if you get them wet before you shake ‘em real hard, you’ll be mud slinging… on your way to a political career!

@AriannePlenty of time here for him to build a sufficient war chest of mud for some future campaign.

@William PursellTime for Robin Hood to stage a comeback tour, not in Nottingham, but here on this side of the Atlantic. Robin and the Merry Men are desperately needed by the 99%.

Suggest he start in lower Manhattan on Wall Street, home of the American corporate Mafia. Those in corporate boardrooms now serve as financial advisors to the Sicilian Mafia, after receiving sizeable advisory fees, of course. Capitalism in action. The 1% are #1 in this field of endeavor.

… you really want to trust her aim?

Wouldn’t that be like the proverbial burning down the barn to get rid of the mice?

I remember it well. It really wasn’t necessary to have Charles Ingall’s adopted son die from a drug overdose!

The ZAP should be used carefully, lest it be taken away again. :)

You’re giving politicians too much credit. They don’t really have good intentions, they just refuse to tell you the truth about what they want to do. They know that if they told the truth, they would not get elected.

Politicians have to start somewhere. For most of them, by the time they gain attention on a national level, they have had time to polish their act, and know exactly what to say and how to say it. e.g. “It depends what your definition of ‘is’”.

@renewed1@Jeff0811You guys have collapsed the truth into understandable bites for the rest of us. Hope we can avoid the bite of the political Rottweilers..
