Scary, but it would seem our ‘human’ politicians are made out of the same BS the robot is!

Panel One. You have an unnecessary comma between the subject and the verb.

It won’t be REcalled, it’ll just be CALLED (something else)!

It won’t be recalled? As in a recall election, or as in recalled by history?

I thought the extra comma was the funniest thing in today’s strip.

He must have made one that looks just like Obama. I wonder what they did with the real one.

Personally, I’m not seeing the extra comma today. “My latest model of the robot politician” describes Ernie, so it’s not necessary to understand the sentence. Therefore, we set it off with commas.
You could just say “Ernie has some great upgrades”, which would make sense, and that’s why commas go around the phrase above.
