That damned Budget

What's Mallard Fillmore raving about today?

President Obama, the Budget.

This would be funny except Mallard repeated the same joke every year during the Bush Administration, while the huge deficits were being run up.

What, what do you mean he didn't?

Artistic notes:

1. It would appear that whenever the roulette wheel lands on one of the green "0" or "00" spaces, Tinz draws Trucker Guy in front of the TV, otherwise it's Splayed Duck Crotch.

2. Drawing hands are above Tinz's pay grade.

3. Has Tinz ever LOOKED behind a TV?

Hey, guest crotch today. At least this one's covered.

As for the joke, such as it is: I'll bet Somalia's annual budget is much simpler and more compact. Maybe the Tinsh should move there.

Yes, the federal government's so small and uncomplicated that the budget shouldn't be longer than a grocery list. Or a list of Tinny's talents.

The Tinshley dream budget:

"A BUNCHA MONEY FOR BLOWING UP BROWN PEOPLE. SOME MORE FOR GETTING RID OF BROWN PEOPLE IN UHMERKA. NO MONEY FOR DARKIES OR POOR PEOPLE OR TEACHERS, FUCK THEM. BUT GIMME SOMETHING FOR A SIX-PACK, I'LL PAY YOU BACK THURSDAY."

This is one of the right-wing's stupider talking points: Big bill equals BAD bill!!!11!!. I guess they believe that Ronald Reagan's budget's were doodled on the back of an envelope.

Frank Stone said...

Yes, because everyone knows the budget should be able to fit on a 3x5 index card -- just like the tax code.

And that budget would be a lot less heavy if it were printed in a normal-sized font on both sides of the paper -- but that wouldn't make for such a dramatic prop for the TV cameras, would it?

Holy shit, that is some bad lettering.

Oh, crap! Obama forgot to include compensation for people injured while laughing at Tinshley's comic! DiR, are you OK?

I can't imagine how he could have forgotten that $0.72/year. It's not exactly going to break the bank.

I'd guess that's a book on the guy's lap, but he's salt of the earth and wouldn't have no truck with crap like that, so it must be a partially completed origami urinal.

If Tin ever learns to draw, this strip will be so dull.
