Adventures of a Basic Force For Good in Our TimeTM
Tuesday, 7 Sweltring (Wedmath) 2005
We liked the look of Ted Rall's latest cartoon:
But we couldn't help but notice that this cartoon could have a much broader scope than Ted intended, and could have been written about any of a number of situations occurring today. For example, you could put a Democrat in the cartoon in place of the Muslim, and slightly alter the words of what is being admitted, and what is being asked to be admitted by the Putsch fellators on the left hand side of each panel, and it would still be just as true as it is right now. Other examples of the multiple situations that this cartoon could be (only slightly) altered to capture the truth of the matter:
The Illegally Installed Usurper in place of the conservative, and Kerry in place of the Muslim;
Any one of Delay, Frist, Cheney, Novak, Coulter, Malagalangadingdong, Spammity, the vile Pigboy, O'Really?, Kinda Sleazy Rice, or Rumsfeld as the conservative, and any Democrat who has admitted that they have been wrong about anything as the other character in the cartoon;
Any wrongwingnut blog in place of the conservative, and any progressive blog on the other side of the panel*.
And these are just the examples that readily spring to the forefront of our melon. Can you, gentle reader, think of any others?
* - because progressives have this tendency to admit that they can make mistakes, unlike some Idiotarian Rottweilers Powertools Instacrackers blogs we could mention over on the wrong side of the blogsphere...
