Big Bottom
I'm sorry to report that CJo's theory from yesterday was slightly off: it wasn't Rockwell, but Gordon "Sting" Sumner that was echoing through Stantis' head over the weekend. But how awesome is CJo for actually picking up on that? Sir, you rule.
The cameras are still everywhere, but now Carmen and Winslow are fighting back. Winslow is sticking his tongue out, and Carmen...well, I'm not really sure what Lil' Stantis is doing. It would seem as though she's about to moon the camera, but maybe she's just a little too shy to give them the full moon (or even Stantis realized how creepy it would be for him to have a little girl do it - he might get away with Winslow pulling at her swimsuit bottom, but having her drop her pants is a bit much). Or maybe she's just grabbin' dem cakes, as the Junkyard Dog told me to do back in the glory days of the WWF.
Carmen says "point made," which I guess means that Stantis is saying the best way to combat the government illegally spying on us is to make funny faces so the people watching get a cheap laugh. Or something like that. For me personally the best way to fight back is to have a Senator like Chris Dodd threaten to filibuster giving the telecom industry retroactive immunity and watching as Harry Reid is forced to pull the terrible legislation because it's drawing too much attention to how far the other Dems are willing to give Bush what he wants. Thank you, Senator Dodd, for believing in a little something called the Constitution.
As for Stantis, thanks at least for not making this week's strip about the imaginary War on Christmas. Bill O'Reilly has that front covered all by himself.
Comments
I would think that a pro-war Bush-loving Neocon like Stantis would love all of this constant surveillance. Maybe the reason for so many of Scottie's drecky recent strips is that he was out volunteering with the ACLU. Or something. Because this man is a walking non-sequiter.

This strip is awful. I can't decide whether Scott Stantis understands the Fourth Amendment or not, based on it.
On a side note, I may have discovered why Scott Stantis's awful material always gets accepted by his editor!
