At least it appears Obama and Snowden are getting along now. Jimmy Kimmel? Not so much.

In fairness to Obama, the Afghan strategy wasn't his anymore than Obamacare was. The women in his life are setting him up to fail. (As women will do.)

  In fairness to Obama, the Afghan strategy wasn't his anymore than Obamacare was.
  
  Wait a second... are you suggesting that he just *borrowed* the idea of =
  'throw more troops at a quagmire and pray that it buys you enough time to distract the public with some other issue so that even if things continue to go completely to shit somewhere deep in the public memory hole there is a distant sensation that this guy (as opposed to the OTHER feckless leader) *did something*'...?
  
  I think referring to 'throw more troops at it' as a *strategy* is also something of a disservice to the word.
  
  Honestly, 'Afghanistan' and 'strategy' are not words you hear in the same sentence very often, and when you do, its almost always by someone who is very, very embarrassed.

Did Obama's soul patch turn white?

Why is Obama asking Gabby Giffords to talk about anything? And why does she have razor stubble?

As a non-'Murrican, I am so grateful for the explanation that the White House is, indeed, in the state of Washington and not Buttfuck County, Idaho, as I had previously thought
1. UnCivilServant 11 years ago
  
  There is no State of Washington, just South BC.
  1. JW 11 years ago
    
    You dumb ass. That's North Oregon.
    1. some guy 11 years ago
      
      You mean North Northern California?
2. Snark Plissken 11 years ago
  
  Yes, it's right next to the Space Needle or the Washington Monument as some people like to call it.

Why is Christie asking questions? Is he trying to deflect from his own media attentions?

      Mmmm.... yes, that was spot on.

Why is Nixon doing a minstrel show while talking to someone with tits where her eyes should be?
1. Cdr Lytton 11 years ago
  
  And what is Jeff Greene doing in the panel? It looks like a bad episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm.
Pompey 11 years ago

Totally unrealistic. Why would a tapir be talking to a pedophile? And why is the tapir wearing a suit and humanoid?? This cartoon is very surreal.
1. Floridian 11 years ago
  
  "To be honest with you Diane, I'm surprised."
  1. Pompey 11 years ago
    
    Is there a rake inside the tapir. ??? This keeps getting weirder and weirder.
Longtorso, Johnny 11 years ago

Oh, God. I just realized YOU CAN'T SEE THEIR HANDS BEHIND THE PODIUM!! WHAT'S GOING ON BACK THERE?!?!?!?

And Bok sucks.
1. Cdr Lytton 11 years ago
  
  Christie appears to be eating a corner of the flag. Doesn't he get enough to eat?
  1. UnCivilServant 11 years ago
    
    Plenty, but he needs the fiber.
    1. SugarFree 11 years ago
      
      On a serious note... You know Christie must shit 9 or 10 times a day. He has his own private bathroom after a series of lawsuit filed by his staff.

        um, if he did would he look like he does?
Brian D 11 years ago

That is some serious duckface from Chris Christie.

For all we like to rag on Chip, do you all see what passes for editorial cartoons in the mainstream rags? Case in point, the entirely obtuse and unfunny crap that Signe Wilkinson does for the
Phila. Inky.
1. BakedPenguin 11 years ago
  
  I agree - Payne and Bok are probably mid pack. However, if you ever read Ramirez in IBD, you get a sense of what's possible.
Suthenboy 11 years ago

Just heard on the radio;

Fruit of the Loom is permanently laying off 150 of 260 employees in Vidalia, La. No explanation given. I am guessing obamacare. That is a disaster for a town like that.
1. Longtorso, Johnny 11 years ago
  
  Once Warty started going commando, their sales dropped 25%.
  1. invisible furry hand 11 years ago
    
    When the official Warty merchandise line is launched, I hope there's a t-shirt saying "Ain't no pants can hold me down"
    1. SugarFree 11 years ago
      
      The look... the touch... the feel... of WARTY!
      1. invisible furry hand 11 years ago
        
        What, no smell of Warty? Celebrity perfumes are where the cash is.
        
        Swiss Servator, Befehl! 11 years ago
        
        ifh, the user has to live for the product to sell.
2. Snark Plissken 11 years ago
  
  Sounds like a looming crisis for their economy.
  1. Suthenboy 11 years ago
    
    No shit. An already poor town with ~4200 people. That is probably half the people in town with jobs. They will all go on welfare and the towns tax revenue will plummet. The domino effect will kill half the other businesses....it will turn into a wasteland.
    
    Ironically most of those losing their jobs are probably black Obama supporters.
    1. Snark Plissken 11 years ago
      
      If it's Obamacare, I'm surprised they didn't manage to get an exemption. Could just be wear and tear of a lousy economy in general.

        I would certainly hope underwear would be the last thing people skimp on or go without replacing
        
        *shudders*
  2. Swiss Servator, Befehl! 11 years ago
    
    I saw what you did there....
    1. UnCivilServant 11 years ago
      
      I weft at the way regulations have warped the incentives.
  3. Banjos 11 years ago
    
    This will tear the fabric of that community apart.
  4. Rich 11 years ago
    
    If they eliminated jobs due to Democratcare, it was done for a good gauze.
    1. Swiss Servator, Befehl! 11 years ago
      
      You all make me shudder. I am filled with the desire to disown you all.....but only due to jealousy that I didn't get any of these puns out first.

    That's one way to spin it

Good morning, East Coast Reasonoids and weirdos who naturally wake up at ungodly hours.
1. invisible furry hand 11 years ago
  
  Good morning Banjos!
  1. Rich 11 years ago
    
    Speaking of ungodly hours ... 😉

      I am insomnia's gift to you
      1. Rich 11 years ago
        
        And I to you, ifh.
        
        Have a nice, um, day!!
2. SugarFree 11 years ago
  
  All hours belong to God, heathen. Even 13 o'clock, the two hours a day he spends ashamed of creating Warty.
  1. Swiss Servator, Befehl! 11 years ago
    
    Ashamed? Warty is a test for the faithful. Kind of a trial by ordeal.
    1. SugarFree 11 years ago
      
      Warty is the burrito God made that is too large for even Him to eat.
      1. Swiss Servator, Befehl! 11 years ago
        
        Whoa... I think I need to contemplate that one for a while. Tonight. After a bottle of shiraz.
        
        Thanks for that.

Obviously a shameless plug for the forthcoming Mr. Peabody & Sherman film.

Why is [insert someone not intended be drawn in the cartoon] talking to [insert someone else not intended to be drawn in the cartoon] and why are they [insert something not intended to be drawn in cartoon]?

Baby Liberty finally fell back to sleep. I hopefully I will get another hour of sleep before I have to wake up to take sloopy's daughter to the DMV. It will be a fucking miracle if we get out of there in less than 4 hours. There are days I badly wished I had a regular job like you lucky bastards.
1. Rich 11 years ago
  
  DMV, eh?
  
  Make sure you are in the right line, no matter how poorly it is marked.
  
  Good luck!

Who does Bok's lettering? Whoever it is deserves every cent he's paid, probably more. He makes Bok's artwork nearly legible. More labels, fine calligrapher, more labels!

I don't get it, either. Also, fried chicken.

Happy Friday, Reasonoids.
