Bloom County by Berkeley Breathed for October 12, 2009

Actually, Dad, not so sneaky; pretty direct! Context is all, Mikey B.!

They were a great evil imperial market? How is that different from Wal*Mart?

Different truths for different contexts, different audiences. Gee, whatever is wrong with that? Oh, yeah, the Goering factor.

Let me put it in the proper context. That kid wouldn’t know real evil until he came running in and woke me up.

Excellent assessment jrbj. Ahh walmarts, kudos to you too rayannina.

Perhaps Ronnie simply forgot that presidents’ speeches get printed in the paper, where everyone can read them. Or perhaps he simply forgot between speeches what he was supposed to say that day.

BTW, I bought volume one of Bloom County: The Complete Library yesterday, and there’s stuff in it I don’t even remember from when the strip first came out! Anyone here remember Ash Dashley?

There is always only the truth pbarnrob.The rest is rationale….

I don’t see the inconsistency. Evil empires are great markets. China & WalMart are both making lots of money.

Let’s see how easy this will be. Take down the “evil empire’s” dictatorial government-run economy, and allow free market capitalism to replace it. Poof, 450 million new customers. What’s inconsistent about that? I guess to a small mind that can’t make the leap from reading to reasoning it might be so.

You should learn an important lesson: The other guys are only evil if you don’t make money out of them.
