Like the time after they'd been enslaved and stomped on for decades and somebody apologized? Well, I was treated badly once, and nobody apologized to me. Sheer prejudice — the press is in the tank for anybody who's not a white man, and if you are a white man, and you say something awful or commit a crime, they'll criticize you and everything!

It's only clear to Fox New listeners what it's about, because it's based on "news" only reported on Fox News.<br /><br />So, Bruce...when McConnell declared that the ACA only had 7.5 million sign ups because Barack HUSSEIN Hitler was "cooking the books," you thought that was ca-razy? And Bruce...you do know that "Flouridation is EVIL MIND CONTROL" came from Bircher loonies fearing the United Nations, and the other phrase comes from "Commies under the bed," and all are 50 year old right wing paranoid fantasies, right? And now some Clive Bundy grandpa is going to read your strip and take it as an insult to himself and his deeply ingrained beliefs about The Negro. C'mon, Bruce, I realize that your whole job is just ramming a dog whistle up your ass and farting through it, but try to have even a little pride in your work.<br /><br />Also, @Frank Stone: I didn't get "deerstalker cap," I got "Ignatius J. Reilly earflapped hat." And when your "art" is so goodly arted that 2 people can come to such different conclusions...Bruce, go back to scrawling the N word on bathroom stalls like you did in sixth grade.

Really? Was a tinfoil hat too difficult to pull off? It's not like an inability to draw something has ever stopped you before.<br /><br />Anyway, congratulations on inadvertently conveying a partial truth: Conservatives did indeed do their damnedest to ruin enrollment in the ACA. Unfortunately for their (and your) pathological need to be right at all costs, they were not nearly as successful as they had hoped.
