  1. Live Free or Diet   13 years ago

    Burst, cursed, nursed, pursed, thirst, worst, versed… First!

    1. Live Free or Diet   13 years ago

      Hard to type this early!

  2. guy in the back row   13 years ago

    He couldn’t think of anything funnier about the candidates?

    1. Live Free or Diet   13 years ago

      He didn’t want to whelm us.

  3. wtp   13 years ago

    GOMP

    1. SFC B   13 years ago

      It’s GOMP
      It’s GOMP
      It’s GOMP
      He’s kinda square…

  4. William Walsh   13 years ago

    The drawing of Gingrich is racist.

  5. The Art-P.O.G.   13 years ago

    Heh.

  6. invisible furry hand   13 years ago

    Surely the collective genius of Hit&Run; can do better in expanding GOP than this?

    1. The Art-P.O.G.   13 years ago

      Is it more of a satirical backronym or humorous acronym?

  7. Hey, you   13 years ago

    I would like to apologise to all of the liberals, who I didn’t believe or thought they were being irrational, that said the Republican voters were a bunch of uneducated and stupid people. Though I wouldn’t go as far as to say stupid, I now understand their sentiments.

    1. invisible furry hand   13 years ago

      I prefer to think of Republican voters as absurdist satirists. Just try saying President Newt without laughing.

      1. Live Free or Diet   13 years ago

        And I thought there was nothing that could get me to vote for Obama.

        1. AlmightyJB   13 years ago

          About a year ago, I had a bunch of people telling me Obama was one and done. No way he gets re-elected. I told them all then to not underestimate the GOP’s ability to snatch defeat out of the hands of victory. I believe I even mention Newt by name.

          1. Bill   13 years ago

            This is just a strategy to get Romney to look better. Once everyone finally realizes what a douche Newt is, they will coalesce around Romney and he will get 42% of the Repubs to vote for him.

      2. Almanian   13 years ago

        Newcular Titties does give new meaning to the phrase, “She turned me into a Newt!” Apparently, it does NOT “get better” in all cases…

      3. Hey, you   13 years ago

        President Ne…New…ne…hahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah…(breather)…hhaahhaahhahahahahha

  8. Bee Tagger   13 years ago

    I must have missed this episode of Today’s Special. I always got the impression Sam Crenshaw wasn’t all that well-respected.

    1. mr simple   13 years ago

      Wow, deep cut, man.

  9. AlmightyJB   13 years ago

    I’ll take Things That Aren’t
    Funny for a thousand Alex.

  10. Fist of Etiquette   13 years ago

    And South Carolina takes one on the chin.

    1. AlmightyJB   13 years ago

      I think it’s all over their chin and it’s not pretty.

  11. AlmightyJB   13 years ago

    Oh BTW Reason. I just want to thank you for making it virtually impossible to read or leave comments if you have an Android phone. I’m sure I will appreciate all of the time you have freed up that I had formally been wasting.

    1. SugarFree   13 years ago

      It’s the same thing on iPhones. So much for the cosmotarian charge.

      1. db   13 years ago

        It’s fixed now. I emailed Alissi a couple days ago and now i can read and post from the android.

        1. Relieved   13 years ago

          Thank god!

    2. Tonio   13 years ago

      I prefer to waste my time informally.

  12. Terr   13 years ago

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

  13. Bee Tagger   13 years ago

    On Fox & Friends this morning the 2 male caricatures couldn’t agree on how Santorum did last night in the debate.

    One said “fantastic”, but the other refused to budge from “spectacular.”

    1. AlmightyJB   13 years ago

      One man’s gold is another man’s santorum.

    2. The Question of Auban   13 years ago

      Fox & Friends is the reason I leave for work an hour earlier than I have to. I can’t STAND that show. I live with Fox News Junkies.

  14. Almanian   13 years ago

    Why is Jimmy Carter wearing a “Newt” button?

    Also – needs more labels.

    1. invisible furry hand   13 years ago

      Yeah, and where’s that giant finger on the left going?

    2. The Question of Auban   13 years ago

      Because he is a fellow Georgian?

  15. Sparky   13 years ago

    I don’t get it.

  16. db   13 years ago

    Hooray for Mike Alissi fixing the mobile browser redirection problem!

  17. Troy   13 years ago

    Art: F
    Point: F

    I made three cats stare at this cartoon for three hours by keeping their eyelids on a la A Clockwork Orange. With in 5 minutes after release, they all committed suicide.

      Gingrich: Obama Promoter

  19. db   13 years ago

    Who is throwing the boomerang at newt from behind the bush?

    1. Tim   13 years ago

      I think it’s a reference to Islam.

      1. db   13 years ago

        Aborigines are Muslim?

        1. Tim   13 years ago

          If we were only smarter it would all fall into place.

          1. SFC B   13 years ago

            It’s South Carolina’s state flag. A cresent moon over a palmetto (I think) tree.

            1. Mensan   13 years ago

              I’ve always wondered why South Carolina picked traditional Muslim symbols for their flag.

    2. Tonio   13 years ago

      A secret muslim reference.

  20. Iron Felix   13 years ago

    I do believe that man has a ball sac for a chin.

    1. Bill   13 years ago

      They’re called ballchinians.

  21. Fatty Bolger   13 years ago

    How about “Gingrich Over People?” Fits the drawing and makes about as much sense.

    1. Bill   13 years ago

      That will be next Fridays. +1 by the way.

  22. Funny Every Time   13 years ago

    Why did they dig up Tip O’Neill?

  23. R C Dean   13 years ago

    Is there another panel or something? Because that one doesn’t really have a joke in it.

  24. lily   13 years ago

    My neighbor just met a bisexual man on —datebi*cOMit’s where for men and women looking for bisexual and bi-curious individuals to meet in a friendly and comfortable environment.
    It’s a nice place for the people who have the same sexual orientation.

    1. Jesus H. Christ   13 years ago

      If you’re bi, how do you meet someone with the same sexual orientation, given that your sexuality isn’t orientated?

      OTOH, everyone you meet shares the same sexual orientation (in at least one direction).

  25. anon   13 years ago

    Guys, I’ve studied this for two hours now.

    I still don’t see the joke.

    1. invisible furry hand   13 years ago

      Two hours on Chip Bok? Looks like the joke’s on you

  26. Dosman Woodso   13 years ago

    Sounds like a rock solid plan to me dude. Wow.

  27. Guest1776   13 years ago

    Oddly enough the GOP establishment supported Bush and weren’t saying the kind of things about him as they are Newt. Weird how that works.

    Bush wants lunar stepping stone to Mars – January 9, 2004

    President Bush will announce a bold plan next week to establish a permanent base on the moon with an eventual goal of sending a manned mission to Mars, senior administration officials said last night.

    Three senior officials said Bush wants to aggressively reinvigorate the space program, which has been demoralized by a series of setbacks, including the Columbia disaster that killed seven astronauts last February and financial problems dogging the International Space Station.

    The officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Bush’s announcement would come in the middle of next week. They would not say when a moonshot would take place, but one said it could be soon. A
    mission to Mars would not happen before 2014, officials said. Experts have placed 2018 as an ideal time, based on the positioning of the planets.

    Then again we’re talking about a Republican establishment that is saying Romney is more conservative than Newt. Talk about being out of touch with reality. Perhaps they and Romney are worried Newt wants to attack the incoming aliens from planet Kolob when they return? http://tinyurl.com/843zon4

    EX CANADIAN PRIME MINISTER ON BUSHES MOON BASE

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ElRr5NIIgU

    Oddly enough its the GOP establishment that is living in outer space by believing the Republican nominee don’t need to motivate the base because the Democrat will because it worked so well for Dole and McCain.

  28. Kolohe   13 years ago

    You know, I was about credit Bok for the subtle placement of the Palmetto and cresent moon, but he still overlabeled the location.

  29. calm mentor   13 years ago

    Are there that many S. Carolinians with no missing teeth?

  30. Medical Supplies   13 years ago

    The post is written in very a good manner and it contains much useful information for me.

  31. Medical Supplies   13 years ago

    Finally!! Thanks to Google, I found the information I was looking for. Bookmarked this URL. Will surely visit this site more often. Thanks.

  32. Medical Supplies   13 years ago

    I feel strongly about it and love reading more on this topic. If possible, as you gain knowledge, would you mind updating your blog with extra information?
