Fact: Teresa Heinz Is A Rich Bitch
I can see where this is headed. Winston meats the dawg. (One big [sic] for Shrubville Sucks.) The dog complains about the government taxing her inheritance. Winston campaigns for the next month on the death tax. So, in essence, Stantis has already taken the next month off to write about the death tax, Winston's campaign, and crazy New York City Jews. But I feel that should anyone with access to his ear be reading this, let him know that the following recurring annual holidays are upcoming: Columbus Day, Halloween, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving and then all of those little annoying ones in December that I can't keep up with in my secular, urban, workaday world. Let him know to prepare those strips ahead of time so that he can take a break from the Winston campaign to check in on old chestnuts like complaining about complaining Injuns, how the pagans are ruining America, and wondering which came first, Turkey the country or turkey the bird. Of course, like most of the other recurring annual holidays that Prickly City fails to recognize, I'm sure they'll pass without notice.

This series is quickly going downhill, after a strong (for Stantis) start. And the punchline for today's strip seems so...off. The punchline badly needs a re-write, which Stantis clearly did not attempt.
What a lazy cartoonist. Quick change of topic: Periodically, I check in on Stantis's blog for his editorial cartoons. Turns out a few days ago he published one about MoveOn.Org, in which he portrays Beavis and Butthead as...well, go see for yourself.

(But at least he doesn't support Ahmadinejad...)

That Beavis and Butthead thing is horrible. First off, they'd say they suck, not bite. Secondly, why would Beavis say "you said McConnell?" If Butthead had said "Dick Cheney" then Beavis would say "You said dick," but I don't get why McConnell is supposed to be funny. Stantis is terrible at everything he does.

His drawing of Beavis and Butthead is not bad. Maybe he should stick to copying other cartoonists' drawings.
