    Great timing, since he recently posted the VERY FIRST Dry Bones!

    Could you maybe add two more panels to drag out that sentence a bit more? I'm not sure the point is belabored enough.

    Few people know about the horrors of the Irish holocaust, but Yaakov has the inside scoop.

    Oh fuck, now I know why Otterloop wouldn't even do this. If anyone needs me I'll be taking a scalding hot shower and purifying myself with steel wool.

    Obama's cronies are EVIL! George W. Who? Never heard of him. Did he have cronies? Surely no Republican would do such a thing...

    In which we ponder the question: How is it even possible for a DbD strip to be significantly more horrible than the typical DbD strip? Made up stuff; made up flag; nonsense.

    Guess it is pretty typical once you break it down.

    Wait... Democrats want no term limits on Presidents? Since when?

    Also, I LOVE it when right-wingnuts bring up the "Czar" thing. That term was in use since at least Reagan, from what I recall.

    Sounds about right, although it was an invention of the media as a matter of convenient shorthand and nothing more in any case. "______ Czar" is not anybody's actual job title. Dipshits bringing it up as though we were returning to the days of monarchy was one of my favorite things that dipshits did in those early days of Obama's first term, and I'm glad to see it again.

    Yeah, it's a canard they have tossed out every now and then. To be fair, I heard it said during the W administration, too. Stupid then and stupid now.

    You have to love how the right criticizes Obama for not doing anything in one breath and then in the same breath screeches to the heavens how he is going to raise gas to $20/gallon, shut down Christianity and ignore everything in the Constitution and its amendments.

    That's avoiding that whole "waah we have no voice in government!" thing is solved by elections. Which they fucking LOST because it turns out if we can only have one dude in a seat, it goes to the majority instead of the minority. Fucking Day by Day.

    Was there a specific Brettesque story of a Democrat literally saying they don't want term limits on the Presidency anymore, though? Is that point completely fabricated by Muir? Or is it one of those "truths" that libertarian assholes just somehow know?

    Someone always assumes *President they hate in their second term* will abolish term limits and ascend to be Emperor. Heard it about Clinton. Heard it about Bush. Hearing it about Obama. I'm sure you could even find some outlier Dem saying they'd like it if Obama stayed President. But that doesn't make it a platform, or even commonly entertained. It makes it crazy people. Muir's thing seems to be trying to take Shit Youtube Commenters Say and pretending they're mainstream opinions. He doesn't care that the only reason people mock Republicans as Birthers is that for a year or so it was commonly entertained by actual elected reps before someone finally convinced them that it was a completely lost and incoherent argument.

    I can't believe I'm about to argue with Muir like he's people, but it's not exactly crazy to be anti-term limits. It's not something I care about much but if you pressed me I'd probably say I was agin them.
  20. Otterloop Beardy Magnificence

    From Wiki:
  21. madkevin Despondent Fancybear

    Ah. So "Democrats demand no term limit for Obama" really means a SINGLE Democrat....who has been doing it for a decade before Obama took office. You'd think Muir would be more worried about Democrats having access to time machines and/or psionic powers.

    The buzz is to warn Obama, who JUST won a second four years in power, that his time is up.

  27. Jason T Keeper of the Elemental Materials

    It's clear enough, it's just extra gross even by the abominable standards the cartoon's established. On the one hand there's the ludicrous sententiousness of its self-dropped-author-hopes-will-be-a-meme (Obama's scared now!) and then there's the level of aggressive YOUR TIME IS DONE TYRANT sentiment that it implies, two months after a clear victory in the presidential elections. A Repugnant Cartoon.

    Jonathon Pollard? An American who spied for Israel, sentenced to life in '85, eligible for parole in a couple of years. The Israelis have been trying to get him out early for a long time now, the US has consistently said no, because, y'know, spy.

    Dry Bones has lots and lots of "Free Jonathon Pollard" strips. He was a (paid) spy for Israel (and Pakistan) and was granted citizenship you know.

    Liberal Strawwoman is clearly not really a liberal strawwoman any more. Marriage and babies has clearly mellowed her, which leaves it to the other chick with the Russian Boyfriend to pick up her slack. SEE HE TOTALLY DOES CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT AND EVERYTHING.
