Crumbunist posted:Jesus Christ. Half of those don't even make any loving sense relative to anything. The Condi one is just awful and racist and the Rush one is just wishing rape on him for some apparent unconnected slight.  This one is great too. I guess I can see some of the "dumb soldier" ones (I've met a few, though it's really in poor taste) but calling them suicide bombers? Really? You're going to go with that? gently caress you.

Space Kimchi posted:Haha what the hell is this? Surely the "conservative" viewpoint on adopt vs buy would be that buying is market-forces and therefore the right thing to do! Trying to guilt people into propping up the undesirables of canine society is just bleeding heart liberal foolishness that rewards unsuccessful dogs for being lazy and expecting everything to be handed to them on an aluminum dish. The bigger question is why is he filling space with this nonsense? Mixed-breed dogs have been around long before labradoodles and dog breeding has been around for ages, it's not exactly news that new and old breeds come into and go out of vogue. Unless there's some bizarre racist undertone about how we shouldn't dignify race mixing by giving half-breeds an official name. Of course I don't really believe that but this poo poo is even more pointless than the "HEY GUYS PEYTON MANNING WANTS TO TELL YOU I HAVE A NEW EMAIL" poo poo. This stupid poo poo belongs in "Hi and Lois", not the editorial page cartoons.

Nonsense posted:Is Peyton Manning a known conservative football player or somebody famous for being conservative while playing football? or.. what the gently caress was with that cartoon, it's still throwing me off? I think the "joke" if you can call it that is that Manning's in a lot of commercials, therefore he's the ideal candidate to appear (albeit badly drawn) in a strip written for the sole purpose of telling Tinsley's readers he signed up for a new gmail account. It's a sad testament on how commercial sports have become today. Because grown men playing a game for money used to be about Honour and Love of the Game.

Martytoof posted:Tinsley only knows how to draw the duck's one expression, huh? Well you saw what happened when he tried to draw Peyton. He's basically the guy in class who just doodles one thing over and over again instead of working but somehow he managed to get a job doing that also notice how mallard is frequently holding a sheaf of papers like a reporter would, but Tinsley/Mallard is a failed reporter. Probably explains all that animosity towards the liberal media/anchormen in general all in one go. Anyway if you take that last comic in complete isolation and stick it on the normal comics page it would fall into the top 25% of that day's crap so I guess that means he wrote something "funny".

Steely McBeam posted:You would have to be a loving moron not to know that strip was fake and presented as such. Which means Tinsley's either a loving moron, or is intentionally lying to smear his opponents. Probably both, really. I think it's just dishonesty, not stupidity. I seriously get sick of seeing this and you don't necessarily need to have a specific left-right bias to do the political equivalent of flopping around on the ground like an Italian soccer player. Tinsley KNOWS it's a parody strip. There's no possible way, especially as the creator of the strip, he could interpret that as anything but. It's not even like he can claim the strip was parodied in a fashion that it could be taken out of context as a "look how stupid conservatives are this is what they believe" strawman. Tucker Carlson does this same thing a lot, Hardball's Chris Matthews does it occasionally, Abrams with some regularity. With those panel style shows on MSNBC they seem to have it down to a science. Take some out of context quote or whatever, spin it with the most outrageous possible interpretation, give a random guest a chance to talk about how outrageous it is, if they don't play ball just cut them off and repeat the same question in a slightly different way than the next guest. These aren't stupid people, I think they're all actually pretty smart. They know exactly what they're doing, and the sad thing is with the possible exception of Tucker, they're not even doing it with some political goal in mind.

"Dial-Up." Anyway how the hell do you support the free market and then take pride in your own ignorance of technology? "Technology will fix it" and DURR THINGS WERE BETTER BEFORE ALL THESE GOL DURN COMPUTERS THE WORLD MOVES TOO FAST WHY DO I HAVE TO LEARN HOW TO USE NEW THINGS would not appear to be compatible world viewpoints but at this point I think we're all just very impressed that he managed to draw his loving duck doing something besides looking into a sheaf of papers for no reason even if he did have to draw him from behind, apparently had to trace in a nerd from a 1985 edition of "Hi and Lois", and all the "mysterious technology" on the shelves is just long, vague boxes.

Mrs. Badcrumble posted:also is he implying that ray nagin didn't catch heat for that or is he implying that if a white mayor said that he would be right He's implying that the modern, reasonable white people would never ever do something like this. You know, such as a coded crackdown on "gangs" or "illegals" as an excuse to hassle a particular group of people who other people are afraid of. No, it's the black mayors and their reverse racism that are making it hard for the white man to make a living in this country anymore. They have all the best jobs. quote:don't those people recognize it when they are being patronized?

Just to provide some comparison to other comic strips: Today's Doonesbury, which can be pretty good at times, and which our newspaper casts as the "counterpoint" to mallard on the editorial page. This one though just an insipid advertisement for a site that probably didn't even pay him to write it and horrible "joke":  But at least it's reasonably well drawn. Now compare to pretty much 95% of newspaper comics on 95% of days:  Conclusion: 95% of comic strippers are lazy hacks who essentially make a career off of illustrating "The Good Clean Joke-Book for Kids Vol. 2" Unfortunately for Tinsley there is no "Good Clean Liberal Jokebook for Kids" so he just has to write sentences containing the word "liberals" and show a duck reading from a sheaf of papers and hope he gets an ice burn in there somewhere

After drawing every panel, he takes a mighty swig from his hat, slams his fist to the drawing board, and screams "LIBERALS!" Uhh what the hell are you talking about It's common knowledge he drinks the Winner's Cup Whiskey from a paper cup so after every swig he can slam it down on the table and crush it and pretend hes' breaking glass or crystal or another material he can't afford

Just noticed this from today's, in case none of you had yet realized Tinsley is the laziest gently caress in all known creation: What is that poo poo? He has two duck heads to draw and clips one of them off at the bust so he doesn't have to draw a body but instead of doing his usual bird's eye view showing his hands or something he just says "gently caress it more booze" and does a little halfass scribble around his neck and calls it a day.
