Good morning reason!
Chip made me laugh this morning.
Why is Brit Hume working for the president?
Looks more like Jurassic Reagan to me.
It's Bush's second Katrina!
hey man...shit happens!
Showing Carville in a HazMat suit mistakenly implies that someone associated with the government is actually doing something to clean up the spill and not just trying to punish CEOs without a trial.
Haz Mat? Isn't that a secret Zionist group?
So not only racist, but bigoted too.
Haz mat...isn't that what frat boys do to Mat?
I can haz mat?
*wheeze
Hazmat suit = radioactive protection = wants to keep from getting hit with Obama's fallout
This isn't nearly as funny as the idea of Ron Paul as president. I gues the faithful don't get it,
Right. They can take their cheap shots at Obama but once he's sworn in he'll show them what the new way is like.
Max, you won't know funny if it slapped you in your suppurating cunt.
Please don't feed the suppurating cunt.
True. I've become everything I hate.
That is what they say about idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
I have sudden flashbacks to joe.
Joe was a living example of that principle.
Joe at least had the decency to refrain from becoming unhinged until after a dozen or two exchanges on any particular thread, rather than opening up in full-on off-my-meds mode.

Max is busy taking names.
That would be OrangeLineSpecial who was taking names. "Hey, guys. I'm trying to stalk someone who insulted me in a chat room. Would you happen to have any leads?"
...would be a good name for a punk band.
The fish is good. Nice attention to detail.
Based upon statements, I don't think it's water that Carville has in that hose...
I was having a great day until you had to bring up Carville's hose.
Th Fresh Prince of BP. Good Lord, those pinna on the Sociopath-in-Chief are getting larger and larger every week...

Funny how the cartoonists are making him look more and more like they made Bush look.

'Bout time. Have any two successive Presidents ever more closely physically resembled each other? Bush and Obama have the same head. It's fucked up.
but isn't one like, black?
"but isn't one like, black?"
RACIST!!! Don't you know that pointing out the very obvious is racist?
but isn't one like, black?
He is now.
"I'm not Black, look at my mom and grandma" seemed to be the invisible caption for his Virginia campaign commercials.

"Bush and Obama have the same head."
And many of the same policies.
Doesn't that go along with having the same head?
Ha! Amateurs. They don't have the same head I had.
Come on and blow me...
A kiss like you mean it!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
since they shared the same head, and by extension the same brain, does that make them both half wits?
Rule #39: There is no such thing as coincidence.
Garbage.
C'mon, admit it. The idea of a boring old racist fuck like Ron Paul actually becoming President--if it wasn't funny, it would be terrifying. Your cartoonist doesn't know shit if he deosn't do one on President Paul.
Give it up, dude.
Grow some balls and find a handle you want to keep.

Seriously. WTF is up with you?
He is just bad performance art.
Like all good art it moves my bowels.
Where is Sandi?
Every incarnation of Edward franchise has had a hard-on for bitching about Ron Paul. That's why so many people think Dondero is behind it.
Dondero is a bit before my time. Or he was here when I started but I never paid attention to him. What was his deal?
Used to work for Ron Paul and is now disgruntled, claims to be the only authentic libertarian despite voting in lockstep with the GOP. Is what we'd call a paleolibertarian. Endorsed Guliani for President in 2008. He's been here in your "era" he just doesn't come around here much.
You know the deeply unfunny and completely tired Gabe spoof-handle "Cosmotarian Overlord"? That's how Dondero views Reason-style libertarianism.
I sort of remember that one, I think. The only ones of that other troll you guys talk about all the time I saw where when you linked to them (on the occasions of working links 😉
DONDEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Endorsed Guliani? Kill it before it multiplies.
I took an online test once to see "which of the 2008 electoral candidates you should support" and got Guliani as my result.
I think the test was flawed...
I like it 🙂
IT'S ALL GEORGE WASHINGTON'S FAULT!!!
Obama inherited this oil spill from George Washington.
Did GW get some of his slaves from Kenya? Could be a connection.
I am ready to just end all government participation in education. Unbelievable.
PROVIDENCE, R.I. ? Christan Morales said her son just wanted to honor American troops when he wore a hat to school decorated with an American flag and small plastic Army figures.
But the school banned the hat because it ran afoul of the district's zero-tolerance weapons policy. Why? The toy soldiers were carrying tiny guns.
"His teacher called and said it wasn't appropriate," Morales said.
Morales' 8-year-old son, David, had been assigned to make a hat for the day when his second-grade class would meet their pen pals from another school. She and her son came up with an idea to add patriotic decorations to a camouflage hat.

Do they have some kind of test in education colleges to make sure only stupid people get their certification?
Best friends are verboten now too:

Don't want to get too alarmist, but something's going on in your country ...
*Puke*. "Experts" think they can rewire kids and smash "undesirable" behavior... hasn't this shit been disproved already...?
words do not convey the level of hate I have for anyone who wants to abolish my having best friends.
If "educators" are questioning the value of a best friend perhaps I ought to go out and get me one.
Just read the new york times article. That is honestly one of the most horrifying things I have ever read. This trend of indoctrinating children into little equality zombies has got to fucking stop.
BP Oil Spill: Against Gov. Jindal's Wishes, Crude-Sucking Barges Stopped by Coast Guard
59 Days Into Oil Crisis, Gulf Coast Governors Say Feds Are Failing Them
Coast Guard Orders Barges to Stop
So why stop now?
"The Coast Guard came and shut them down," Jindal said. "You got men on the barges in the oil, and they have been told by the Coast Guard, 'Cease and desist. Stop sucking up that oil.'"
A Coast Guard representative told ABC News today that it shares the same goal as the governor.
"We are all in this together. The enemy is the oil," said Coast Guard Lt. Cmdr. Dan Lauer.
But the Coast Guard ordered the stoppage because of reasons that Jindal found frustrating. The Coast Guard needed to confirm that there were fire extinguishers and life vests on board, and then it had trouble contacting the people who built the barges.

Hey, I can't shoot that. That is private property.

Serious question: Why would you need to contact the people who built the barges? Couldn't you just ask the people on the barges to show these items? And why the hell does it matter anyway? If you out around oil in the ocean without lifejackets and fire extinguishers you sort of deserve whatever comes of it.
This is unbelievable. The ocean is full of oil, let's focus on lifejackets. Good thing inspecting for lifejackets wasn't job 1 at Normandy.
Hey, Coast Guard. Stop playing cop of the waters and do something that's actually helpful. Like, I don't know, maybe using some of those Federal Powers you have to supply life jackets and fire extinguishers to the barges so they can keep doing what they're doing?
Wow. Full retard on the red tape.
Add to that Obama's declining the oil skimmers from Holland and his unwillingness to lift the Jones act temporarily.
But he's got plenty of time to play golf and have performers like McCartney entertain him and his buddies at the Whitehouse.
This is without a doubt the most incompetent president in living memory.
It's hard not to conclude this is deliberate.
Maybe incompetence in it's purest form is indistinguishable from deliberate malfeasance.
Pinocchio's Disease of the ears.
The less you listen, the bigger they get? Do they slowly turn to tin, as well?
Is it bad that I don't get this cartoon at all?
Have Crow explain it to you.
Carville is threatening the president with what appears to be the tail of a brontosaurus. Fossil fuels come from dinosaurs. It's deep, man.

You fucking right-wing fanatics are the most humorless assholes on the planet.
Thank goodness you're always on.
I have no control over any of this.
My narcissism makes me do it.
What's your take on Bigfoot Max?
ROFL You retard. libertarians are decidedly not "right-wing", we're not left-wing either of course. I prefer to think of us as up.
Slutmonkey,
You don't understand. To Max, anyone who wants to legalize drugs and prostitution and supports gay rights is a right-wing fanatic.
Oh yeah, and you're a regular laff riot. I'm sure you're the life of the party. HAW! Hyuck hyuck.
{doing a William Shatner}
MMMAAAAAX!
I'd suck his balls dry.
It's true... he will, indeed, suck his balls dry.
I taught him that trick, by the way.
Huh?
All you right-wing assholes stop spoofing me!
File a lawsuit, Max. Or shut the fuck up and take the abuse you so richly deserve.
I'm sure this is racist somehow. Let me dig up my Al Shaprton slide rule.

This article is old, but I find it hilarious that the Google Ad showing up on this article at the moment is a body make-up that specifically mentions covering up tattoos as part of its purpose. It also mentions stretch marks and varicose veins, but the picture shown is of someone covering up an arm tattoo with make-up.
which limited the actions of Congress and by extension had to be incorporated, the Second Amendment stated that RKBA was not to be infringed, and lacked detail as to by whom, and therefore applied to all government. By its very language it was already applicable to the states!
is good
hahahaha I really cannot stop laughing 🙂 very nice you made my day
Hilarious, you made my day 🙂 great one reason
