hmm, the joke being that water boarding is more sensitive than Valerie ? Otherwise, I'm lost.

I think the joke is that both liberals and conservatives only care about protecting the identities of covert CIA agents when it is politically convenient.

Why can't Bok make a joke that...makes sense? I want to like it, but I just can't.

This gives me a great idea: maybe if I type the phrase "soccer mom" 76,000 times, it will make people stop caring about torture!

Yeah, he seems to be missing a middle panel that would tie the whole thing together.

I think the answer is that Chip Bok just isn't a good editorial cartoonist.

Geez, guys. I like it.

|12.14.07 @ 10:04AM|#

Could you explain it?

It's kinda like the Sunday Mark Trail which mostly consists of still lifes of cute woodland critters. Is it supposed to be a zen thing?

Yeah, please do. I'd love to know that the hell it is supposed to mean.

Is that supposed to be (covert) Cheney exclaiming at the television?

So what? Awards are given away all the time to mediocre talents (cf. Grammys, Oscars, etc). It doesn't change the fact that he sucks right now.

I guess I'm the only one that caught the Mystery Science Theater 3000 reference (Keep circulating the tapes).

C'mon guys, if you have to explain the humor of something, it immediately loses all humor anyway. If you don't get it, just move along.
