I really think Bucky is just spouting whatever nonsense comes into his mind in hopes of…well, I really don’t know what. Maybe that someone will actually listen someday? Or take him seriously? I’m forced to conclude that cat has serious dementia at this point. It’s long passed the point of being funny and is now just pitiful..
Sad part is, that same trial could be held today. Nothing has changed in the intervening century. Science is still under attack from religion, and a huge number of people in the U.S. still don’t “believe” in Darwinian evolution.

12 year old cartoon, yet the line could have written today; nothing has changed…

Bucky finally speaks the truth in the fourth panel……must be like given enough time, a monkey can type out the Gettysburg address on a typewriter .

Why would that bother Satchel? Dogs really do have the worst breath in the animal kingdom. But they make up for it in lovability.

If you take metaphors to the extreme, than Bucky’s reasoning actually makes sense.

The Monkey’s Disgrace
Three monkeys sat in a coconut tree,
Discussing things as they are said to be
Said one to the others, "Now listen, you two,
There’s a certain rumor that can’t be true,
That man descended from our noble race,
The very idea is a great disgrace!
“No monkey has ever deserted his wife,
Starved her babies, and ruined her life.
And you’ve never known a mother monk,
To leave her babies with others to bunk,
Or pass them on from one to the other ,
Till they scarcely know who is their mother.
“And another thing you’ll never see,
A monk build a fence ’round a coconut tree,
And let the coconuts go to waste,
Forbidding all other monks to taste.
Why, if I put a fence around this tree,
Starvation would force you to steal from me.
“Here’s another thing a monkey won’t do -
Go out at night and get in a stew,
Or use a gun or club or knife
To take some other monkey’s life.
Yes, man descended, the ornery cuss,
But brother, he didn’t descend from us!”
