I have to admit, it was getting a little hard to see Harris as a strong leader of the free world a la FDR or Churchill — but that’s no reason to give up a chance to keep Trump out. What kind of president wants to take revenge on his opponents?!? Wait, okay, maybe there have been several in, say, the last century, but not on this continent, until now.
This is the second week in a row that the Dallas (a blue spot in Texas) newspaper has run an alternate, apolitical, strip, not the one that appears on this page. Seems smart, considering the fuss that ensued when Mallard Fillmore was discontinued because of complaints about editorial content on the comics page.
There is an old joke about a comedians convention, where they all chuckle when a number is called, because they’ve numbered every joke in the world. Then a number is called out and gets a belly laugh because they never heard that one before. When I say old, I mean maybe Reader’s Digest 1960?
I read advice columns as well as the comics, and have never seen a letter about liberal ranting spoiling a party. For what that’s worth!
