Wow, sounds like Derf is starting to panic.

Of course McCain’s horrible POW experience is no proof of any qualifications, but it’s no dumber than applauding a promise of CHANGE without bothering to ask what that’s supposed to mean.

As stated before, a liberal atheist is scared by Sarah Palin only because they know instinctively that she is better than they are all around. That is why so many loved Bill Clinton–because no matter what someone else did, they were still better than him, and/or they felt that by Clinton’s behavior, it gave them legitement permission to go out and act like him. Because Sarah Palin has built her life on the guide rules that God laid down for all of us in the Bible, and Christians have a better foundation on which to build their lives, there fore tend to be calmer and wiser if we seek guidence from God who created us all, they tend to be wiser in their consideration of problems. We believe in people pulling their own weight and take responsibility for their choices, even if it’s a bad choice. An athiest liberal simply cannot find a foundation on which to argue her actions, so, they resort to ad hominen attacks and behave more like a bratty 1st grader who can’t get what he wants, and throws a fit, calling names. B. Hussien Obama states in one of his books that if things get ugly, he will stand with his muslim brothers. That is the change he is trying to pull off on us–a closet muslim, (at least until he gets into the White House) along with an extremely ANGRY wife who seems to think that the white population of this country owes her something. We are not responsible for something our ancestor may or may not have done 200 years ago. GET OVER IT! And what qualifications did Slick Willie have to be in the White House? He let the chance to grab Osama pass him by, not once, not twice, but three times!!! If Clinton had done what he should have done, imprison Osama for all the attacks on American Embassies, 9-11-2001 would never had had a chance to happen. And Clinton’s behavior while in the White House was beyond appalling–both his and Hillairy’s. They made all American’s look really bad and incompetent. And what about all the pardon’s he granted of convicted, sleezy criminals. There is no excuse. And he somehow got into the Presidency with less than 50% of the popular vote. People forget that Bush inherited the big horrible mess left by Clinton. When the Clinton’s left the White House, they actually stole furnishings that did not belong to them and they knew it. And they have yet to return all of the stolen items. And now because the Republican VP Candidate is a Biblical Christian who make others feel guilt because they recognise deep inside that she stand head and shoulders above them, they just keep on with the ad hominen attacks. Shame on the democratic party who want to make the people of this country dependant upon Uncle Sam for everything. They act like none of us have a brain cell in our heads and cannot think or make good descions for outselves. This ‘cartoonist’ should also be ashamed of his hateful rant under the guise of cartoons! You are a credit to no one.

Tugboat Mama,
You sound like you belong on one. You represent so many other idiots in this country, & we have become the laughingstock of the world. The funny thing is that you vote against your own economic interests by supporting the corporate interests who continue to erode your quality of life. And you believe these thugs are moral because they say they are. The Repugs know how dumb you and your ilk are and they use you to maintain power. You are one of the sheep who’ve helped destroy this country by supporting the erosion of our Constitution.

It is scary that so many American embrace Palin, but then this country has lost all sense of taste, charm, common sense, style and street smarts empowered by book smarts!

Tugboat Mama, all that bible reading and right wingnut Kool-Aid has turned your brains to mush. Get your nose out of the book and take a look at the real world for a change. And while you’re at it, get into an adult education course in remedial punctuation and sentence structure.

The City by John Backderf

With its tortured perspective, gritty realism, and outlandish urban humor, Derf’s The City has kept an outsider’s beat on current events, trends and out-there aspects of contemporary culture since 1990. Whether depicting the coarse insanity of modern urban life or the ultra-clean realm of the feature’s only recurring character - White Middle Class Suburban Man - Derf uses dissonant humor to speak up for what he calls "the common schlub."
