Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for September 12, 2010

The Red Rascal has to be one of the most graphically violent characters. Must have been all those years of GTA.

“Stop looking over my shoulder, Dad”.

DOONESBURY has already done this joke a couple of months ago. The more we see of the Red Rascal, the more pathetic Jeff becomes. Please: Make him get a real job. There must be a Chick-Fil-A hiring in the greater D.C. area.

Jeff is trying to do on a personal level what politicians and governments (including but certainly not limited to our own) on a mass media level: Fabricate heroes and victories to promote their agendas. I recall Baghdad Bob weaving accounts of Saddam successfully repelling the American invaders, right up to the day the Americans retreated into Baghdad. And our own Army rewriting the stories of Jessica Lynch and Pat Tillman to reflect better on the Army itself.

Well, some think those Afganis are half way there, and I think they’re just living on a prayer….

The wonder of modern technology - instant fabrication dissemination.

A legend in his on mind.

(Ok, I know, It’s old.)

And I can do it all from the comfort of my own room.

Osama bin Laden is already dead. Maybe Jeff can kill him again.

.damn! not sure if I was especially pleased to seeing a hangin’ with my morning coffee.

or should I just get over it since that is the way of the world?

Cutting off of the tongue is far too tame a punishment for the perpetuation of the abomination that is Bon Jovi.

Gen. Petraeus would not have many choppers left if he had a hundred Jeffs.

Nighthawks, I think the same. I’m guessing that this will cause a stir. I’m guessing that some papers will censor it. Wonder how hanged Taliban is carrying over among radical fundies?

Feeling 9/11 Gary?

Movies went first, jrmerm. Pictures of people are forbidden.

Are we sure that Jeff is not Roland Hedley’s son?

I wonder if the guys at Overkill are censoring this…

My sentiments exactly, WaitingMan, well said.

Stebon could be this guy’s speech writer.

Happiness is not being able to recognize BonJovi sound when it surfaces on College Radio.

Originality usually required for speech writing, FriscoLou – do you really think Stebon qualified?

Stebon, you poor sap. You meant the seventh panel. No wonder that you hate President Obama. You’re jealous. He knows how to count, and you don’t.

Your claims about Obama are risible, and there is not one tht doesn’t, at the least, snap back as a much harsher critique on Bush-Dick. Anyone who supported Bush-Dick can’t complain about Obama as whiny, inept, or incompetent. In addition, anyone who supported Bush-Dick and didn’t enlist in the military is a whiny, cowering chickensh!t like Bush-Dick himself. Take a look in the mirror, man.
