You Say Potato, I Say F*** You, Stantis
So yesterday Scott Stantis joked about John McCain's cancer (which might have been a result of his years as a P.O.W.), and today he thinks it's funny to make light of the war in Iraq. Maybe tomorrow he'll crack wise about the flooding in the Mid-west ("wet enough for ya?").
Sorry, but I have a hard time laughing at jokes that play off of the occupation in Iraq. Maybe it's easy for Stantis since the media has kept mum on what's really going on over there, so the forgotten wars (hey, remember Afghanistan?) are now fodder for his punchlines. At a time when oil prices are soaring, $4 a gallon for gas is considered a deal, and the big oil companies were just handed the reigns to Iraq's oil supply, do we really need a guy who writes a crappy comic strip joking about how it's just like having our soldiers protect the spuds in Idaho?
By the way, who are the two characters in that last panel? Or did Carmen and Winslow both lose half their body weight while running (yet again) through the desert?
Comments
Winslow looks like Lieberman in that last panel.
