So, Mallard Fillmore, eh?<br /><br />This strip is appallingly lame. Not just today, in general.<br /><br />I mean, holy schnitt, this is the conservative Doonesbury? Whether you agree with Trudeau about anything or even find him funny, at least he, you know, <i>draws</i> people and things in a practiced style, makes points about things people care about, and provides somewhat realistic setups for easily identifiable punchlines.<br /><br />This? This is a goddamn <i>poorly executed scribble of a duck head</i> poking out under lines and lines of crazed rambling that one might find on the blog of a repressed 14 year old who just discovered that there are people who don't believe in what his daddy taught him.Chancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00226145896576592193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33297721.post-77625960165978702312007-01-26T10:15:00.000-08:002007-01-26T10:15:00.000-08:00If you can explain Limbaugh's listeners, you can e...If you can explain Limbaugh's listeners, you can explain Tinsley's admirers. In short: many people are stupid and vile.<br /><br />As far as the editors go, they run Mallard to "balance" Doonesbury, which is drawn by a talented and witty cartoonist who can put together sensible stories, characters, and jokes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33297721.post-87930125156598738482007-01-26T07:46:00.000-08:002007-01-26T07:46:00.000-08:00First he complains that people get upset when he d...First he complains that people get upset when he draws racist caricatures. Then he goes on to say that the yellow peril is eating our beloved overweight pets.<br /><br />This guy is senile. Or, at least, I'd like to think the best of him and believe that he's senile. I don't know how to explain away his readers and editors who run his comic.Charles CĂ©leste Hutchinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18123138871494922485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33297721.post-89315107915780862462007-01-26T00:05:00.000-08:002007-01-26T00:05:00.000-08:00pvfwWow- Mallard put 1 and another 1 together and ...pvfwWow- Mallard put 1 and another 1 together and got a very unfunny 2! What's next Tinsley, that old chesnut about hotdogs in packs of 10 and buns in packs of 12? <br /><br /><br />* How revealing is it that Mallard's prime source of news is USA Today?
