You think one ring malfunctioning was the sole problem with the Sochi Olympics? The buildings with no heat, nonopening doors, toxic tap water and easily collapsible roofs, those are just par for the course?

Oh no, I'm sure :tinsley:

will cover those by the time he runs out of list material of the Olympics in May. Nevermind that the 'joke' 'series' IS STARTING AFTER THE GODDAMN OLYMPICS ARE OVER.

Not gonna dispute that. The anti-gay laws are written with the venom of bigotry? Really works a lot better for this.

Guys you just don't understand, government assistance is bad because it interferes with Churches and charity assisting the homeless. If there were no food stamps or government assistance, then churches and charity (and the FREE MARKET) would pick up the slack, and more!

Bigotry is the venom within the anti-gay laws? Works for me.

While the metaphor could be better used, I appreciate that Bill Day is doing all original art and has been for a while.

And for everyone shocked on this, remember that in 2008 Asay did one where he un-ironically used guns and butter as praise for McCain and bashing Obama. These people are broken on a level that is hard to appreciate

Yeah, I was thinking about it, and I think this one would be even more effective if is said "religious freedom" laws, or whatever. The core of the idea s that the law itself doesn't say "feel free to be a bigot", but that would be the effect.

Definitely agree, easiest good cartoon ever, but I'm telling you now that in probably a day or two we're going to start getting cartoons where the President is criticized for cutting the defense budget while WAR IS WAGED IN EUROPE. (Ugh, this Ukraine mess is giving me agita.)

Suitcase, not a briefcase, so you don't open it while carrying it.

Strangely, that's mostly what it's been since 2009!

This might be asking a bit much, but how hard would it be to remove all the autoshading on this drat cartoon? I know almost nothing about image editing but I'm tempted to fire up paint.net and see if I can't manage it somehow. Just look at it. At this point it's covering the entire drat page from corner to corner, it makes it look like some kind of botched printer error or something.

If you can find the black-and-white version of that cartoon, oftentimes it'll less autoshaded.

You know what I love about this cartoon? Looks at how many swords are still there. There are still more swords there any Obama needs, so beating a few into food stamps and stuff for the poor won't hurt our ability to fight.

NOOOOO WE NEED ALL THOSE SWORDS WHAT IF OSAMA'S CORPSE RISES FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE OCEAN?!? :saddowns:

The fact that America's military is so advanced means that the only threats to it are caused by its own incompetence, which no amount of tanks or bombers can make up for. But realizing that we can't solve our military problems by throwing more money at it would require admitting a flaw in the glorious American ideals of unnecessary spending and oversized guns, so lets just keep throwing money into the war machine while people starve. The more this cartoon comes up the more it pisses me off.
