The Boondocks by Aaron McGruder for June 14, 2013
Transcript:
Granddad: Well, I don't care how they spin it. I think it's wrong that he lied about the leaks! Riley: But that's precisely what the media wants you to think! The problem is a society that makes people ashamed of a natural bodily function! Granddad: Wait, are we talking about the same thing? Riley: I say, let's talk about solutions! Let's talk about "depends" undergarments!

What are they talking about? Anyway, very timely.

Yeah, it’s funny (and sad) how sometimes the topics from almost 10 years ago in this strip coincide with what’s happening now.

Not sure, but they could be talking about the intentional leaking of the identity of a US CIA operative in Europe as retribution for her husband’s anti-Bush comments here in the US.

Wait…what? #There is a certain NSA (former?) employee who could defintely use a depends undergament over his face! This neo Benedict Arnold is spreading all kinds of “dung” over in China.

Leftists are so dim. First they lied – Valerie did campaign to get her husband the job. Then the husband could not connect the dots – the leftist shill affirmed that Saddam was merely on a trade mission to Niger, forgetting that it was a country with a single export, yellowcake. Then they falsely blamed (and convicted) a conservative fellow who was innocent of exposing the CIA desk jockey, and ignored the factual acts of the wishy-washy leftist who actually did, just because the latter was a protégé of leftist Republican Colin Powell.
Maybe “dim” is a poor choice of words – “dishonest” is closer. And more consistent with
Benghazi (sure, a despicable YouTube video, had nothing to do with constant claims one week earlier that “Osama is dead and GM is alive”)
IRS abuse (which never happened in even the Nixon administration, because the Treasury Secretary and the head of IRS were both honest people),
accusing a FoxNews reporter of conspiracy to mine the news,
blanketing the AP with a telephone warrants,
expanding the Bush “mining overseas contacts” to a domestic metadata
Dishonest is the right term.
