Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for September 07, 2024

Hard to tell which of these two is the good guy today.

As long as he doesn’t vote for the convicted criminal rapist, racist, bigoted, sexist, anti-American insurrectionist who hates the military and is so old and befuddled that he can’t string coherent sentences together, we’ll be okay (and his Depends diaper smells)

Great choice we have; a megalomaniac, or a total nit-wit.

Why should I vote for a candidate who works against MY interests?

First time ever I do not like either choice !

Sounds to me as tho Rat’s got it just exactly right!!

There’s a clear choice. One candidate wants to make things better for the majority of us, the ones who don’t have it so good. The other candidate only wants to make things better for the ones who already have it pretty darn good.

In Indiana, all you need is a R in front of your name. Look at the last Secretary of State race, criminal over competent.

Bad Goat. Voter suppression is always wrong.

Goat is the pretentious phony who is acts like he is wants “greater good” but he is really a dictatorial mindset who is want to suppressing others rights to votes by being in favour of voter suppression.

At least Rat is honest and he ain’t pretentious and is clearly states what he is really wants.

Wasn’t “for the greater good” Grindelwald’s mantra? Wouldn’t have worked out so great for all the muggles, just saying…

….and out come the trolls!

“VOTE FOR PEDRO!”

Rational voters do not vote for or against “people.” They vote for or against “policies.” The best evidence of “policies” does not come from what politicians say, but from their histories. Are you better off now than you were four years ago?

No, you’ve been a narcissistic a-hole for years.

The Count ❤️ Rat.

What am I doing? There is no philanthropy in Rat. He hates society.

Anyone who votes for the wrong person is a big fat stupidhead. So, nyah nyah nyah.

Trolling, trolling, trolling on the river…. Sorry Tina

does seem like there should be some kind of idiot test for weeding out voters who are not gonna help the greater good

Rat the realist. Philanthropy is for philanthropists.

I sure as heck ain’t voting for Trump. I’ll tell you that much.

Taking other people’s money, even if you do give some of it to the poor is NOT “philanthropy”.

Admit it or not, most people feel that way

But the candidate on the right IS suppressing the vote.

Yesterday an injunction was allowed to delay the mailing of absentee ballots in this state (that were supposed to start going out yesterday) until an appeal of the ruling against RFK to remove his name ballot.

As this state also has several military installations with deployments oversees, the service men and women defending our American way of life are being deprived of their right to vote.

Goat is a commie pinko

Here’s you Sign “STUPID” ALL of the DEMO’s hold it upside down…………….

Very well crafted Steph, one can read whatever they want to in this one.

Again Goat, why do you keep talking to Rat?

Hey, who was the genius here who suggested Pastis stayed out of politics?:

Wouldn’t Rat be voting for himself?

Yes, the Electoral College pretty much fits the Voter Suppression ticket.

Why on earth is Pastis pouring gasoline on the fire for the second day in the row? There are plenty of Editorial cartoonists doing this already.

I can’t tell what is worst: people who vote against their self-interest, or for them. Also it would be an improvement to not be voting to reward egotism.

This election isn’t about choosing one who might be a philanthropist or not. It is about if we continue to have a democratic-republic or not. The government our Founders gave us, the best in mankind’s history, is threatened and needs to be saved.

“Superman’s Song” by Crash Test Dummies comes to mind right now.

Rat isn’t wrong here.

“Suddenly I’m in favor of voter suppression”. Speaking of which, the party that is currently campaigning on trying to “save democracy” just successfully completed legal action to keep the Green party off the presidential ballot in Nevada on a technicality[*], because they knew that people voting for the Green candidate would have cut into the number of votes Democrats would get. So much for the will of the voters.

[*] The technicality was that the Green party had asked the Secretary of State what wording they needed to use on their petitions to get on the ballot. The (Democrat) SoS told them the wrong wording, which the Greens dutifully used. Then once the Green party had spent months acquiring the sufficient number of signatures, the Democrats went to court saying, “hey, none of those signatures count because it wasn’t exactly the necessary wording to be legal, so sorry.” Funny how the Democrat SoS’s “mistake” worked out to the Democrat Party’s ballot advantage, “Democracy” and “will of the voters” being discarded.

Why do you do this Steph? You may as well just do editorials. Or do what Mike Peters does, and do them separate

Ay-yi-yi!

Another comic spoiled by political comments.

You are going to get yourself suppressed, Goat, with that attitude.

It will horrible if murdering Harris is elected. And she and Joey murdered those 13 killed in Afghanistan.
