It's a partisan witch hunt, don't you see?

i mean, seriously, where do you go with this? It's like, you can't argue with this kinda shit, because it comes from nowhere arguable. Reason's greatest failure is its assumption that it can trump unreason, and modern times show that ain't the case. Like these assholes harping on the oil-for-food thing. It doesn't matter that american companies were the driving force behind that shit, it can just serve as some bullshit connection that disingenious john birch-soaked jerkwads can use as a cudgel to attack. It doesn't matter that when the oil-for-food thing was actually looked into, it turned out to be nothing much there(at least on the U.N.'s part), which is why the brouhaha died off without much fanfare, these assholes have nothing left, so they have to go back to weak ass attack on discreted U.N. connections, or, even better, attacking a president who's been out of power for about six or seven years.

"I would have sold him a pardon for campaign money"

This notion is so completely moronic I can't believe the cartoonist isn't pulling my fucking leg. Correct me if I err, but -- presidential pardons -- aren't they generally issued as the president is LEAVING OFFICE?? and obviously, that's when a president needs campaign money. RIGHT?

NO. NO NO NO. WRONG.

for the sake of sweet fuck, McCoy, get one clue.

The hands-together, head-nodding subservient racist stereotype is actually of Indians, not Pakistanis. So the guy even fails at being a good bigot.

Dom Passantino, Monday, 9 July 2007 12:13 (sixteen years ago) link

He has been saying that islamism is a poor way of describing the philosophy of Al Qauaeda et al. because people hear the islam and this just serves to alienate Muslims further altho that the 'war on Terror' is a pointless slogan and combatting terror is not war.

They have been changing language and tactics.

Although the doctors in thes case, Dom, are Indian and Saudi.

Ed, Monday, 9 July 2007 12:18 (sixteen years ago) link

And that is obviously "letting the terrorists win"!

To give the guy some credit, i don't think this is what he was going for. The clasped hands/arched fingers is more of a "plotting evil"/Mr.Burns-type of thing.

"liberal left"? is this some sorta response of "rightwing conservative"? still, too bad he got nabbed for the crimes he did commit, and was investigated, tried, and sentenced by a Dubya appointee.

One of my biggest pet peeves in the cartoon world is when folks "shade" their dark-skinned characters with straight, solid lines like that.

Pleasant Plains, Tuesday, 10 July 2007 00:05 (sixteen years ago) link

http://www.daybydaycartoon.com/071007.jpg

from your day? note that the character is portrayed as being between her mid 30s to mid 40s, making "her day" the Reagan era.

Also, same line of reasoning we've heard elsewhere: if we just let the generals FIGHT the war, if we just let our soldiers loose and not worry about all this collateral damage or destroyed infrastructure, why, we'd have them licked by christmas! I mean, hell, massive brutality worked so well in the philippines!

DBD is so completely and utterly frustrating because I see the words, and I'm proficient in English... but in this case, the words are completely devoid of any kind of meaning. If pressed, I could not re-state Muir's point in any one of his strips. (other than the generalized "HAHA Lib'ruls SUCK" bullshit)

At least with the fucking duck I feel like we're speaking the same language.

milo z, Tuesday, 10 July 2007 18:19 (sixteen years ago) link

yeah I kinda feel that way too - the narratives are so disconnected and buried in layers of "ironic" commentary that I don't even know who's who or what they're getting at.

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 10 July 2007 18:27 (sixteen years ago) link

Shinseki is famous for his remarks to the U.S. Senate Armed Services committee before the war in Iraq in which he said "something in the order of several hundred thousand soldiers" would probably be required for post-war Iraq. Donald Rumsfeld and Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz publicly disagreed with his estimate.

If nothing else, at least in these guys lazy attacks, the point of the attacked concept is getting across, i.e. they actually understand what a "carbon footprint" is, even if they attack anyone talking about it or the very idea of caring about it.

Wait, are they attacking "celebrities" or "bands"?

kingfish, Tuesday, 10 July 2007 19:25 (sixteen years ago) link

I confess that while flipping past the Live Earth footage I too was thinking "I wonder how much energy this thing is wasting"

Curt1s Stephens, Tuesday, 10 July 2007 19:38 (sixteen years ago) link

but in general I have really negative feelings about celebrity-cause events, seeing as how I can't think of a single one that's ever produced anything worthwhile (exception: maybe MAYBE the RATM-Zapatista-Chiapas concert). They function more as barometers of what cause is popular with media-types at the moment than as vehicles for political action.

Okay, some questions:

1. Who is saying Live Earth failed, and by what criteria?
2. Why would global warming "destroy the musical tastes of our listeners"?
3. Why would the failure of global warming to do so entail the failure of Live Earth?
4. Just generally wtf?

Neil S, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 09:33 (sixteen years ago) link

1. it was not promoted well
2. global warming prompted this concert, which if it were popular, would prove that americans have no taste, because the acts were presumably no good
3. see above

(notice how the cartoon concedes that global warming IS destroying the earth.. small steps, people... if the price is gore being ridiculed into an early grave i'll take it)

Tracer Hand, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 09:51 (sixteen years ago) link

2) you remember all those stories about how Clinton staffers trashed the WH and stole all the Ws off the keyboards, y'know, the shit that never actually happened?

meanwhile, back to the batshit:

tho the cartoon is technically correct, in that the weather and climate are two different things.

also, we have this one:
