People Who Refer To Themselves As Mavericks Aren't Mavericks, They're Just Insane

TODAY'S STRIP

This is probably the best Prickly City in months. Which is kind of like saying this is the least painful hangnail I've had in ages. Let's just say it could be much worse.

Like John McCain's performance at the debate, followed up by his contentious interview on ABC this morning with George Stephanopoulos. McCain has absolutely no problem lying to the American people with a smile on his face. So with that being the case, I'd like to list a few outrageous lies about the Senator and see how he likes it:

- John McCain cheated on his wife with a younger woman!
- John McCain was a member of the Keating 5!
- John McCain crashed 5 planes!
- John McCain employs Phil Gramm, and together their policies have caused this financial crisis!
- John McCain once called his second wife a c*nt in front of reporters!
- John McCain employs over a hundred lobbyists in his campaign!
- John McCain approved torture, even though he himself was tortured!
- John McCain has voted with George W. Bush 90% of the time!


Oh, wait, I'm sorry - all of those things are true.

Why is he being taken seriously as a candidate again? Do almost half the American people REALLY think he's qualified to be our president? I guess they do if they also think Sarah Palin is qualified to be vice president. Which means I should add one more "lie" to my list:

- Half the population of the United States are idiots.

You know what could've made this strip actually funny? If the text in all panels except for the last one were taken from a Stantis parody of a McCain campaign ad and then in the last panel Winslow (or Carmen) was yelling at the TV, "That makes zero sense!"

Maybe I should write this strip.
