Only The Jaws Of Life Can Save Us Now

TODAY'S STRIP

When she was just a little girl, she asked her Mother (Superior, mistress of discipline at the faith-based homeless shelter) what she would be. She would be beaten about the head and neck with a wooden spoon, and she would also be confused and mildly schizophrenic. That's what Mother Superior said to Carmen, of course.

Wild mood swings, stunted growth, irrational thought. Frankly, that should be a hell of a comic strip character right there. If I were pitching it, I'd sell it as "Bridget Jones" meets "Rain Man" on the set of "Moonraker" featuring "Leprechaun."

It was just a few short days ago that she was declaring the following to be good conservative values: "Lower taxes. Smaller government. Less spending of our money." For all of her gumflapping about "activist judges," is she looking for a Supreme Court Justice to also have jurisdiction over Congressional spending and policy, and maybe to take over for Alan Greenspan in a couple of months? I haven't seen this much flipping and flopping since I was waiting tables at the epilepsy convention and they turned on the mirror ball and strobe lights while they were dancing.
