I really do not care just what Mr. Stantis opinions are, one way or the other. The problem as I see it is that his so called humor cartoons have become almost totally political and editorial in nature. And therefore should be under the editorial cartoons, and not the humor cartoons. Of course, the same could be said for “Doonesbury” from the other side of the political spectrum.
I don’t see Scotty making any criticism of the FOX propaganda network ever in this strip. So objective and connected to reality, ummmm not so much. Hard to take criticism seriously from someone untethered from reality. But hey, 1st Amendment.
Thank you to J. Robillard for the excellent vocabulary words; thank you to pschearer for the grammatical correction; and thank you to Scott Santis for making Senator Kevin, a representation of the pernicious evil of power that we can all innocently loathe. And, is it possible that people (e.g., Rachel Maddow) are just being plugged into a cartoon for purposes of humor without the intent of a reality comment? It’s a comic; suspension of belief / desire for comedy works here.
Dude, switch to decaf. It will help your typing. I found the cartoon slightly insulting, if amusing, and I still have the First Amendment right to voice my opinion in opposition. If conservatives can stand a little “bashing” then maybe Stantis and you should stop voicing your opinions. It works two ways and I will take my lumps when dished. Can you?
Leftists simply have no sense of humor. Mr. Stantis is merely mocking talking heads who were spectacularly unsuccessful.
To a leftist, a great joke is, “He is so dumb he watches Fox News.” I’ve heard that joke all of my life, they just changed the target. Used to be Polish people or Catholics or Black people who were so-disparaged. Same joke, and same people telling it.

That should be “insulting HIM who loves you”. You’d think a Rhodes scholar would know that.

Frankly, I love to have Rachel Maddow over to talk and talk and talk. Plus a lot of cocktails.

Is rushbo’s program going to be cancelled soon? It jumped the shark about 20 years ago.

EXCEPT FOR 9/11! Bush should have been fired and jailed for criminal incompetence and negligence!

CAUTION: Make no offensive comments about Dear Leader because the NSA is watching YOU.

If MSNBC doesn’t get a few viewers soon, maybe Obama can bail them out and make it Video NPRMSNBC and make tax payers pay for it!

Oh damn it… I wonder if there is a way to remove that comment. Someone is going to read it and think it’s a great idea and propose it to Obama.
