It's Debatable
Spurred on by yesterday's suggestion that I should read this damn strip every once in a while before we shutter the operation when Barry H. Obama becomes the bestest president guy ever elected in the year 2008, I checked in to see that Winston & Carmen are holding joint press conferences about global warming. So, I guess that there really wasn't an intentional connection to Earth Day, but why should we expect there to be. The only 'holiday' in Prickly City appears to be the birthday of the singer of the Smithereens.
Meanwhile, the whiners at HuffPo - you know, the place mega-gazillionaire Arianna Huffington runs without paying any of her writers! - are already getting their grundy undies in a bunch over the Pennsylvania results.
9:52 Watching John King and his magic-marker fingers on CNN. It looks as if most of PA counties went for Senator Clinton. Too much light blue and not enough dark blue. I suppose a lot of Pennsylvania Democrats want a president who will obliterate Iran with nuclear weapons. I find that remarkable. Who would've thought Democrats would be in favor of a nuclear war in the Middle East.
Yeah...who would've thought....
As Obama told the Chicago Tribune on September 26, 2004, “[T]he big question is going to be, if Iran is resistant to these pressures [to stop its nuclear program], including economic sanctions, which I hope will be imposed if they do not cooperate, at what point … if any, are we going to take military action?”He added, “[L]aunching some missile strikes into Iran is not the optimal position for us to be in” given the ongoing war in Iraq. “On the other hand, having a radical Muslim theocracy in possession of nuclear weapons is worse.” Obama went on to argue that military strikes on Pakistan should not be ruled out if “violent Islamic extremists” were to “take over.”
Hillary and Barack have more in common that Winston & Carmen. Maybe they should run as a ticket in November.
