Take it. Who's going to stop you? We're to busy making sure sick people don't get better (that would cost money that we desperately need to buy air superiority fighters to beat an enemy that doesn't exist) and sending 1% of the population to jail (we're hoping criminals will stop being bad once we hit 2%.

Trying to compare protests of pointless and savage wars waged for money and the struggles of oppressed minorities to get basic civil rights to people shouting "Nazi Socialism ate my grammy's baby" because they were told to by Rush Limbaugh.<br /><br />I know there are annoying liberal protesters too -coughPETAcough-, but to try and soften this madness by saying "liberals are worse" is just impractical and plain stupid.<br /><br />I mean, come on. I can guarantee you that for every "middle class American" protester out there on this debate, there are at least 10 ignorant shitheads that are so spoiled rich that they were never at a point where they had to choose between a medication or having food to eat. I will also bet that a large number of those "middle class American" protesters are people that didn't even care about politics until Glenn Beck had a shitfit over a black president.Eight Point Fivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10673456096111982755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33297721.post-34642631157807563682009-08-28T09:46:35.758-07:002009-08-28T09:46:35.758-07:00You know, rewinn, I think he does.

Otto Bettmann (of the Archive) put out a most instructive little volume called <i>The Good Old Days: They Were Terrible</i> that goes into uncomfortable detail on those wonderful times that today's "conservatives" think were a dreamlike idyll we should aspire to -- not the 1950s, but the 19th and early 20th centuries, when manufacturers sold crap that was unimaginable to today's consumers: toxic food, inflammable buildings, and worse. Sanitation was a joke. And this is what they want to "conserve" -- to bring us back to a time when a few rich people had it soft and everybody else more or less got to eat shit and die.<br /><br />For some reason, Tinsley's made a career being an idiot who's useful to the ones who want a return to that golden age. I guess it won't matter to him as long as he can insulate himself from reality.Kip Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12751319031224838771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33297721.post-77569067673906494782009-08-28T07:08:37.582-07:002009-08-28T07:08:37.582-07:00Nice scare-quotes around "inner cities,"...Nice scare-quotes around "inner cities," Tinz. It must <i>kill</i> you not to be able to use the actual n-word in your strip. It's all because that dastardly mulatto in the White House made everything racist, right?<br /><br />Also, we should not neglect to mention the fact that Drinky McTalkingpoints is furthering the idiotic lie that it was only rich dilettantes became dirty, dirty protesting hippies. Presumably because decent, honest, middle-class and poor folk were too busy polishing their assault rifles and rubbing themselves all over with the flag, or something.<br /><br />Now on with the Coward and his parade of irrelevant and non-supportive links.dlauthornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33297721.post-10786533797187034022009-08-28T05:18:30.791-07:002009-08-28T05:18:30.791-07:00I have tried very, very hard to be rational in my ...I have tried very, very hard to be rational in my comments of this comic. I try to avoid accusations of racism or the like, I recognize that in some cases a person might not intend anything offensive by their actions. <br /><br />This, however, honestly has me disgusted. How dare he try to compare the people who marched to end an unjust war (among these marchers were veterans) who marched for equal rights, who faced fire hoses, attack dogs, who faced very real violence and police brutality to people who come into peaceable meetings to shout them down in an effort to disrupt them, who compare Obama to Hitler because he *gasp* wants us to have affordable health insurance rather than being the least among the first world nations. These people bring weapons to these meetings in effort to intimidate and scare, and he dares, DARES compare them favorably to people who honestly risked themselves against a society that violently opposed equality.Iron Dragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13376669425414444417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33297721.post-67950673270436225722009-08-28T04:58:50.704-07:002009-08-28T04:58:50.704-07:00Hmmm, interesting....
