Truth in 'Toons

I read several e-comics, most of them on a daily basis (or whenever they publish) - Day by Day, Vexxarr, Girl Genius, The Whiteboard, etc.  Some, however, I skip for weeks and then binge-read.  One of those is PvP.

Got a great kick out of this one from March 23:

News Update from Canada

The flood of Trump-fearing American liberals sneaking across the border into Canada has intensified in the past week. The Republican presidential campaign is prompting an exodus among left-leaning Americans who fear they'll soon be required to hunt, pray, pay taxes, and live according to the Constitution.

Canadian border residents say it's not uncommon to see dozens of sociology professors, liberal arts majors, global-warming activists, and "green" energy proponents crossing their fields at night.

"I went out to milk the cows the other day, and there was a Hollywood producer huddled in the barn," said southern Manitoba farmer Red Greenfield, whose acreage borders North Dakota. "He was cold, exhausted and hungry, and begged me for a latte and some free-range chicken. When I said I didn't have any, he left before I even got a chance to show him my screenplay, eh?"

In an effort to stop the illegal aliens, Greenfield erected higher fences, but the liberals scaled them. He then installed loudspeakers that blared Rush Limbaugh across the fields, but they just stuck their fingers in their ears and kept coming. Officials are particularly concerned about smugglers who meet liberals just south of the border, pack them into electric cars, and drive them across the border, where they are simply left to fend for themselves after the battery dies.

"A lot of these people are not prepared for our rugged conditions," an Alberta border patrolman said. "I found one carload without a single bottle of Perrier water, or any gemelli with shrimp and arugula. All they had was a nice little Napa Valley cabernet and some kale chips. When liberals are caught, they're sent back across the border, often wailing that they fear persecution from Trump high-hairers."

Rumors are circulating about plans being made to build re-education camps where liberals will be forced to drink domestic beer, study the Constitution, and find jobs that actually contribute to the economy.

In recent days, liberals have turned to ingenious ways of crossing the border. Some have been disguised as senior citizens taking a bus trip to buy cheap Canadian prescription drugs. After catching a half-dozen young vegans in blue-hair wig disguises, Canadian immigration authorities began stopping buses and quizzing the supposed senior citizens about Perry Como and Rosemary Clooney to prove that they were alive in the '50s. "If they can't identify the accordion player on The Lawrence Welk Show, we become very suspicious about their age," an official said.

Canadian citizens have complained that the illegal immigrants are creating an organic-broccoli shortage, are buying up all the Barbara Streisand CD's, and are overloading the internet while downloading jazzercise apps to their cell phones.

"I really feel sorry for American liberals, but the Canadian economy just can't support them," an Ottawa resident said. "After all, how many art-history majors does one country need?

New York Times Inaguration Day Headline

(As seen on Facebook:)

"TRUMP EVICTS BLACK FAMILY FROM PUBLIC HOUSING!"

So for Dinner Last Night...

...I understand Hillary was served a super-sized Basket of Deplorables with a side of crow.

Still, I'm having a hard time understanding the celebration from the Hard Right when Trump is about as far from a Conservative as you can get and not have a (D) after your name.

Looking forward to all those Leftists leaving the country, though, and showing how RACIST™! they are.  I mean they're all talking about moving to the "Great White North."  NOBODY is talking about moving "Brown South."

Quote of the Day - Brad Thor Edition

If you're unfamiliar with Brad Thor (I was), he is the author of technothrillers such as his most recent novel Foreign Agent.  He was interviewed by Reason's Nick Gillespie on current political events (and his new novel).  Today's QotD comes at 25:40 of the interview:

I'm a big believer of Federalism.  There's too much going on in Washington, it's too disconnected, and we ought to be making decisions... I moved to Tennessee because I didn't like the decisions in Illinois.  I mean, if the states are the laboratories of democracy, Illinois' a fricken' meth lab.

I'm completely serious here.  I used to joke that if the Cubs won the pennant it would be the Seventh Sign of the Apocalypse.

Apparently that was taken as a challenge.

World's Best Blog Post is Ten Years Old

Oh my god.  It's TEN YEARS OLD.

If you're unfamiliar with it, IMNSHO this blog post at Unqualified Offerings - and the accompanying comment thread - is the best thing EVAR in the Blogosphere - Blog.

Warning, don't start reading this if you have to get up early tomorrow.  The comment thread is 1,104 posts long.

And it's not the best just because my comment ended the thread, either. 

Quote of the Day - Classic Iowahawk Version

From the depths of 2013 comes this timeless and ever-true comment by David Burge, aka Iowahawk:

Journalism is about covering important stories.
With a pillow, until they stop moving.

Iowahawk is a National Treasure

Tam says it best:

Apparently the Nazi Anime Fan wing of the internet has its jimmies thoroughly rustled by the fact that the genocidal founder of the Democrat party has been replaced on the Twenty by a gun-toting African-American Republican woman. And the Pinko Identity Politics wing of the internet doesn't even realize that's what just happened.

This is like sipping a martini made out of hippie and Nazi tears, shaken AND stirred.

And this is the BEST suggestion for the $20 bill I've EVER seen:

Quora Asks...

Someone asked, "Why are the presidential candidates so lame this year?"

I answered:

Back in the dim and distant past of the year 2000 when George W. Bush was running against Al Gore, Jr., comedian Lewis Black had the following observation:

In my lifetime we've gone from Ike to G.W. Bush.

In my lifetime we've gone from JFK to Albert Gore.

If this is evolution, in a few years we're going to be voting for PLANTS!

Long, long before that, newspaper columnist Henry Louis Mencken said:

As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.

Ladies and gentlemen, this may be the election year for Phil O'Dendron.
