How Scott Stantis Celebrates Mother's Day
Ugh. Stantis trots out the whole "let's agree to disagree" strip that he goes with when he doesn't want to deal with real issues or Winslow trying to fly.
The interesting part for me is that first panel. Winslow says "it's all good" while Carmen says "it's no good," but then the two seem to flip perspectives as it becomes more clear that they seem to be arguing about Iraq (Carmen even says to "stay the course" - didn't Stantis get the memo that Republicans aren't supposed to say that anymore?). Why is the liberal Winslow saying everything's good? Stantis does get in his weasel-y "fight vs. flight" argument, as if those of us who don't want us to be in Iraq anymore are running away - very Rush of you, Scott.
But ultimately at the end, Carmen and Winslow throw their arms around each other and happily walk of into the sunset together. If only that were true in real life, that Republicans and Democrats could come together after bickering all day long. Instead, we get the Republicans in Congress voting AGAINST Mother's Day. I think we can all agree that makes Republicans look like dicks.
Happy Mother's Day from the folks at Shrubville, where we love our mothers!

There's no need to drag Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson & Neil Peart into this.
