  1. Untermensch   16 years ago

    Sad but true, and sadly unfunny.

  2. Fist of Etiquette   16 years ago

    Plus, taxpayer-funded mudslinging at rival automakers.

  3. Episiarch   16 years ago

    I don't get it. This makes it the best Friday Funny in years! Congratulations!

  4. affenkopf   16 years ago

    Off topic: This is how a proper Draw Mohammed contest looks like: http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.....n-day.html (and yes I know, Pamela Geller is a neocon psychopath, but at least she manages to actually publish cartoons of Mohammed when having a draw Mohammed contest)

    1. Attorney   16 years ago

      Now that's what I call Friday funnies!

    2. Pamela Geller   16 years ago

      Oy! I may be a psycho, affy baby, but you'd still fuck me!

      1. Episiarch   16 years ago

        Maybe if you were Sarah Michelle Geller.

        1. Pamela Geller   16 years ago

          Booffy the Muslim fucker? That whore? Puh-lease! Can you still walk after I rocked your world schlameel?

    3. AlmightyJB   16 years ago

      Satisfaction.

  5. jester   16 years ago

    There is nothing to be happy about. My dog has cancer. I am so bummed.

    1. Skid Marx   16 years ago

      Tough break. What kind of dog? How old? Mine German shepherd is comming up on 14.

    2. Warren   16 years ago

      Do the right thing and put him down.

      1. the Fixer   16 years ago

        Do the right thing and put him down make him into a stew.

    3. Marshall Gill   16 years ago

      There is nothing to be happy about. My dog has cancer. I am so bummed.

      Depending on the type, dogs can live many years after developing a tumor without much discomfort. Last year I had to finally put down the best dog I ever had. But, she had lived without the cancer negatively effecting her for at least 4 years.

    4. SugarFree   16 years ago

      That sucks, jester.

  6. A. Freeman   16 years ago

    The Truth, spoken with some humor.

  7. PR   16 years ago

    a 50% more honest politician?

    1. MrGuy   16 years ago

      Its still 950% dishonest...

  8. Mark   16 years ago

    Earned Income Credit...

  9. P Brooks   16 years ago

    Longer!

    Lower!

    Wider!

  10. sage   16 years ago

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

  11. Jen   16 years ago

    Eh.

  12. John-David   16 years ago

    Since when do car salesmen pay off customer loans? This makes no sense.

    1. WTF   16 years ago

      It's not that they paid off their customer loans; it's that they paid back the bailout money to the government.

      1. circular   16 years ago

        ...with money from the government

  13. WTF   16 years ago

    On the other hand, this Friday morning cartoon made me actually chuckle out loud.

    1. Team America   16 years ago

      XD +1

  14. Warty   16 years ago

    This is the most tolerable Fiday Funny I've ever seen. C+!

  15. Dan T.   16 years ago

    What do you get if you cross a car salesman with a politician?

    It appears that you get a profitable car company.

    1. TheOtherSomeGuy   16 years ago

      Any company can be profitable if the Federal Reserve is printing a bunch of money and then giving it to the them.

      Hell, you could make baseball bats lined with broken glass, and market them as rape accessories, and as long as you had the Fed in your pocket, you'd make a mint.

      Of course, given the actions of the Fed towards the country's citizens over the last 100 years, they'd probably be your biggest customer.

  16. Jim   16 years ago

    I'm still trying to figure out how this is racist. . . . Wait, just figured it out. Only white people understand money? That's racist!

    1. MrGuy   16 years ago

      You're a reacist because your name is Jim.

  17. Paul   16 years ago

    What do you get when you cross a car salesman with a politician?

    Either a dishonest car-salesman, or an honest politician. It could go either way.

  18. lolman   16 years ago

    what do you get? you get a punchline that sucks. http://www.thepartisandialogues.com

  19. CJ   16 years ago

    When you cross a slick-speaking weasel out for self-gain with a slick-speaking weasel out for self-gain, I'm pretty sure the results should be obvious.

  20. Christian Louboutin   16 years ago

    http://www.luckyboot.com/chris.....-p-36.html

  21. Sean   16 years ago

    Not that one has me laughing!
