That damned triangulation

What's Mallard raving about today?

Hillary Clinton, Gender.

If I were a man. they'd just call it triangulation?

Unless Mallard is using the old "Men are better at Mathematics" stereotype, I have no idea what the hell he's talking about.

Not to mention the fact that this position of Hillary's is made up out of whole cloth.

Replying to Mallard's Hillary comments would be redundant by now, so instead I'll point out that it seems like the Hillary caricature is actually getting worse.

..."Gender politics?"

(rolls eyes)

I was sad that I had no hair, until I met a man who had no head.

Matt,

In response to your comment on Asay in yesterday's post, hey, I think Chuck's drawing is pretty cool. His caricature's fine, IMO.

But I'm biased. He was cool enough to give me one of the originals, which is hanging on my wall right now.

In politics, "triangulation" refers to adopting the positions of your opponents to keep them from attacking you on those issues. Bill Clinton did this with welfare reform and "big government". Bush did it with "compassionate conservatism". Why it's called triangulation, I don't know. I do know that it makes no sense in this comic strip.

Part of doing a good political hack job is to make your opponent look as ugly and as little like a person as possible.

The only thing I've seen uglier than Tinsley's Hillary caricature is Tinsley's mug shot

So in addition to being an anti-Semite, Tinshley is also apparently got a whiny misogynist belt. If a woman isn't a pretty, mute object, she's a bitter harridan or a crone-faced shrew with the mind of Angela Lansbury's character from the original Manchurian Candidate.

It seems to me that the only people really making a big deal about Clinton's gender are uptight conservative hacks who think that it matters at all if a candidate is a woman or someone of color or - god forbid! - gay or an atheist.

Get over it, Tin Man. No one but you and Rush Limbaugh care, anyway. Here's an idea - why don't you satirize the current presidential administration, which is plagued by scandal and hypocrisy? I'm sure if Barack Obama had accidentally shot someone in the face on a hunting trip, we would have gotten at least a month's worth of strips about it.

King, I can't tell if the site your name links to is either the dumbest thing I have ever seen or one of the greatest pieces of satire ever to appear on the internet.

Bruce knows from experience how women deserve no special treatment. He was always the kid punching girls on the playground until they cried. Then he laughed and said the were triangulating

Anonymous: I always figured Tinny was the one getting his ass beat down by girls on the playground--screaming and flailing his legs helplessly while a kid half his size sat on his chest, punching him over and over again...

Unrelated to today's comic, but I watched "Idiocracy" last night, and the Secretary of Education reminded me of Tinsley. Check it out next time you watch it.

Stoopid women. Get back in the kitchen, Hillary! You'll never succeed, at anything, EVER, with your whiney feminist best-of-both worlds unreal demands! You couldn't be a senator if you tried!

Make the damn cake, that's all you're good for! No having it and eating it too for you! How dare you possibly suspect that "equal" treatment wasn't being given? They let you speak, something most women in this country would be stoned for!

What, you think you have a higher IQ than the current president? Better grades? You'd take less vacation time? What about babies?

And umm, remember folks, we hate terrorists and support the war in whatever country we're at war with because they oppress and disrespect women.
