Obama's Nobel Prize

Comments

[Suki]

I don’t get it. At least they put the guy who likes America in the foreground.

[Untermensch]

I keep thinking there must be some point to this, but I just can’t find one. Bok had been on a roll for a while, usually passing the minimal bar of the Marmaduke and Cathy tests, but this one sailed cleanly under both.

[Cracker's Boy]

Bok is a racist.

[JLM]

He’s got a highly decorated general who is waging a war for him, and he just got a peace prize- many medals for bombing the shit out of somebody and one for “peace”. I think that is the point.

[Art-P.O.G.]

A Ranger Tab is actually way cooler than a Nobel Peace Prize. Just sayin’.

[John Tagliaferro]

Second.

Airborn wings too.

[hmm]

I’m gonna go a step farther and say everything hanging or tacked to the General McChrystal’s full dress is more impressive than a Nobel Peace Prize. Even the buttons.

[Jewel]

Even the toilet paper that accidentally stuck to his shoe.

[FrBunny]

Why is McChrystal staring at Obama’s junk? Is Bok saying that the Peace Prize pulls mad gay tail? Cuz that’s funny.

[John Tagliaferro]

That’s not junk. It’s a piece prize.

[Groovus Maximus]

Interesting take. So Is this really a DADT parody complete with Obama’s tu quoque prize?

[brotherben]

Can one of the resident stoners tell me if Bok is funny when you’re ripped to the tits? Is this stuff like Whack Your Porcupine? Funny as hell when you’re toasted but nonsensical when you’re not?

[Nipplemancer]

i have yet to determine the number of bonghits required to make Bok funny.

[hmm]

Sounds like there is a need for a scientific experiment.

[Nipplemancer]

Subject: #21 Jeff, 23 retail sales clerk and lead singer of In the Shadows, a Mercyful Fate cover band.
After 8 bonghits and a cherry coke, #21 stared at the cartoon for several minutes and began to laugh hysterically. twenty seven minutes later he was able to explain his laughter which had nothing to do with Bok’s cartoon.
It is this researcher’s opinion that there is in fact no amount of marijuana that can make Mr. Bok’s political cartoons any funnier than Ziggy.

[P Brooks]

Is this a placeholder, until the actual editorial cartoon arrives?

[JohnD]

JLM is a fool. The “peace” obama offers is the peace of the grave for America

[Fist of Etiquette]

Race is a bokist.

But is it possible Bok is conveying McChrystal looking at the Nobel and realizing that he’s not going to get his victory in Afghanistan?

Just a theory I’m submitting for peer review. Don’t hate on me.

[SugarFree]

Execrable.

[mark]

I had to look that up. For a minute there I thought you were saying “excretable”.

[@]

I believe it’s called “irony.”

[Team America]

Chip Bok is too subtle for you; you missed all the funny parts.

‘Hello, my name is McCrystal’ vs.
‘Hello, my name is Nobel Peace Prise’

Haha.

The cartoon puts Obama in the Group of assassins with a middle name.

Hoho.

[SugarFree]

Political cartoons as they should be.

[Enjoy Every Sandwich]

The cartoon, while boring, does bring to mind a question that I’ve been wanting to ask our Nobel prizewinner: why the fuck is General McChrystal being “advised” by the neocon Kagans? That sure as hell won’t lead to victory or peace.

I’m a Garfield Minus Garfield kind of guy myself.

[mark]

Definitely one of the best Chip Bok cartoons I’ve seen in a long time.

[Tholan]

Why because it’s in color and isn’t over the top racist?

…

Bok, do you have incriminating photos of Moynihan or Balko in a secret location? Or is it Gillespie himself that you have the goods on? You are aware of course that coercion ‘Ist zu den Liberalisten verboten ‘.

[mark]

The conflict between Peace Prize winner Obama and his top general in Afghanistan, begging for more troops, is ripe for lampooning.

And Bok’s cartoons are usually not very good, so this one was pleasing to behold.

[jpocali]

Critics are eunuchs at a gangbang.

[Tholan]

I LOL’d.

[Tiffany and Links]

My only point is that if you take the Bible straight, as I’m sure many of Reasons readers do, you will see a lot of the Old Testament stuff as absolutely insane.

[abercrombie milano]

Definitely one of the best Chip Bok cartoons I’ve seen in a long time.

[nike shox]

is good
