Ahh, the real Chip Bok has returned to the building. I thought he was on a roll, but that must have been his doppelganger.

Jim Henley|7.11.08 @ 7:26AM|

This one got all the way up to Wry Smile.

If I had ears like those, I'd be bitter too.

It\'s still botched|7.11.08 @ 7:48AM|

It should start "Lord knows, I've always believed...". (or "As God as my witness")

|7.11.08 @ 8:13AM|

Haha!
I get it!
It's supposed to be funny because Barack Obama is an elitist!
I give it a solid D+ (the plus is because I actually understand why it's supposed to be funny)

Seriously, did he just make this comic recently? Isn't that statement about bitter individuals old news by now?

Episiarch|7.11.08 @ 8:36AM|

Super weak. One Friday I'd really like to actually smile, or--hope of hopes--laugh at one of these.

Taktix®|7.11.08 @ 8:45AM|

Booooooo!


Boo this man!

Boooooo!

Nigel Watt|7.11.08 @ 8:46AM|

These comics make me wish rotten eggs could be thrown over the internet.

|7.11.08 @ 9:23AM|

Nigel,

If you are just going to give million-dollar website ideas away for free...

|7.11.08 @ 9:53AM|

Can we add "This week's Friday Funny ain't funny" to the drinking game? Or would that cause alcohol poisoning?

ed|7.11.08 @ 9:58AM|

This weekly feature requires a name change. What's the term for ostensibly funny but not really funny? Tina Fey? I suggest they rename it the Friday Tina Fey.

Josh|7.11.08 @ 10:03AM|

I smiled.

|7.11.08 @ 10:09AM|

Why do you keep using Chip Bok's comics? Seriously, what's the rationale there?

|7.11.08 @ 10:22AM|

This magazine has sucked ever since I cancelled my subscription. Wait... did I do that right?

LarryA|7.11.08 @ 10:26AM|

This would be a lot funnier if O'B wasn't so close to being POTUS.

economist|7.11.08 @ 10:28AM|

It would have been funnier if it showed Obama with his fingers crossed behind his back.

|7.11.08 @ 10:36AM|

Wow, even though I understood it...How delayed is this comic coming out? It might have warranted a smile, if it was at least timely. If anybody here enjoys political cartoons, I suggest hopping over to the Economist every friday. http://www.economist.com/daily/kallery/displayStory.cfm?story_id=11708961

Got a bigger smile out of SF's comment @ 9:23 than the comic.

|7.11.08 @ 11:09AM|

Its funny to me because it's true. Our next CNC will likely be an Obamanation.

|7.11.08 @ 11:14AM|

A 4th amendment cartoon might have been more timely.

|7.11.08 @ 11:15AM|

But there is some small hope my friends...check this out http://www.alphecca.com/?p=857

|7.11.08 @ 11:27AM|

We are and we do, B.O., we are and we do.

NP|7.11.08 @ 12:25PM|

Hmm... I actually thought this was one of the better ones by Bok. Maybe I'm too bitter to understand (or not) the humor.

|7.11.08 @ 1:01PM|

Suggested improvement, based on a comment read elsewhere: "I believe Americans have a constitutional right to bear arms, subject to reasonable restrictions. And all restrictions are reasonable."

|7.11.08 @ 1:13PM|

He really is a dick with ears.......
