Man: I accept this gesture of good will. Jeff: Enjoy, dude! Piece of cake! $50 million should keep Karzai happy! Man: Except you gave it to an imposter. Jef: I what? Clerk: Boss wants to see you. At the Presidential Palace, the Red Rascal delivers! His mission accomplished... our hero stops to chill.

GEE1A: That’s one of my favourite Python lines (and caps off a great running gag)!

Hahahaha… woops, wrong guy! But send some more so we can have you give it to a different imposter every week!
Somehow I don’t think this event would make it into the Wikileaks database. ;-7

Is this going to be a week of daily strips tied to a panel in the Sunday strip? If so: Neat plot device…

@TimeWeaver: You got your first statement right. RR is a fictional fictional character. How could a fictional fictional Karzai be an imposter if Jeff is imagining the whole thing? Who’s his boss if the RR is a fantasy?

If you are talking about our Congressman from Kansas, Dennis Moore, I would like to know what you have been smoking? The one decent representative from Kansas and now he is gone. Just the looney toons are back in power. The tea party and the other wing of the GOP. Useful idiots for corporate America.

And reality makes a rude appearance.
But, how was I supposed to know? They all look alike to me!

Relax, montessoriteacher. It’s a classic Monty Python skit.

Although, if the horse fits…
Besides, isn’t the largest corporation the US government itself?

Did the guy from Kansas steal lupines, too?

Here’ show he can make it back: Character Licensing. Or at least flood the afghani market with Red Rascal toys.
montessoriteacher almost 14 years ago
OK, my bad. Glad to know it isn’t Dennis Moore from Kansas who he was talking about.
Nemesys: the rich are fine with largest corporation being the US government as long as it lines their pockets, just no one else’s.

The largest denomination of US currency in circulation is the $100 bill. I don’t think 500,000 $100 bills would fit in that satchel. Btw, the real-life Afghani guy who showed up in the UAR with $52 million in cash got to keep it.
