On The Road Again

TODAY'S STRIP

After taking off last weekend in preparation for the monumental return of Dio the Philosopher Lizard, Stantis is back in force continuing on Dio's unfunny trip to Washington to ask George W. Bush why he's not a "Real Republican."

Unfortunately, the Appointed President isn't even in DC this week - he's headed for Idaho. Not to avoid mother-of-a-soldier-who-died-for-a-lie-and-doesn't-talk-out-of-both-sides-of-her-mouth-like-Sacki-claims Cindy Sheehan. And not because it's one of the few states that actually gave him a positive approval rating (59%). Nope, he needs to visit the Potato State to talk about...terrorism? That's right - because when I think high terror alert, I worry about what's happening in Boise.

My question: didn't Stantis know that Bush was going to be on vacation for five weeks when he wrote this storyline two weeks ago (and only a week before W left for Crawford)? Granted he probably didn't know about Cindy Sheehan's vigil to find out what noble cause her son died for in Iraq, so I doubt he was witty enough to take a cheap jab at her by saying a rumored-to-be-dead lizard can walk right in to the White House and chat up Bush 2 while she gets a drive by finger from the Prez.

Scott, you're being lazy. Again.
And unfunny. Again.
