The
Gift of Grift
Wait wait wait wait wait!
During last February's polar event
Texas almost lost its entire electrical
grid.... and our two Senators, Cornyn
and Cruz, voted AGAINST the new infrastructure
bill?
See you at the polls, assholes.
-----------------
Millionaires and billionaires don't
wait in 7-hour lines to vote.
They go right to the source to choose
their representative, with sacks of
bribes, I mean, campaign funds, in
hand.
------------------
In case you're wondering, one of the
highlights of my day is listening to
the Randi
Rhodes
show
from 2PM-4PM, CST. Smartest dang women
I ever heard.
During the breaks between each segment
she runs a series of editorial cartoons
as bumpers on her Youtube feed and
this week one
of them happens to be one of mine.
It was a sincere honor
to
be chosen and shared.
------------------
I have a neighbor who is ludicrously
low-information. I don't know exactly
where he gets all of his disinformation
but he always falls for any hateful
thing the Republicans
dream up (See: WMDs). And
then it all goes "Ker-Boom!" and he
conveniently forgets about it.
Yesterday I'm tending my lawn and he
walks over and says "Hey. How about
all them immigrants?"
I asked him what he meant and he began
parroting the latest Newsmax talking
point that that dang old covid
and what the Hell's Biden doing about
it?
(A slight digression. He is not vaccinated
nor will he ever be. I should have
asked him why he's afraid of infected
Mexicans spreading covid if it's such
a hoax
that he doesn't feel the need for the
vaccine.)
I asked him if he knew why all these
immigrants were coming to this country
and he gave me the look a dog does
when
you show it a magic trick.
I was about to launch into the story
about the 1950s and Central America
and
the United Fruit Company and unions
and
commies
and
Eisenhower with pictures and circles
and arrows on the back of each one
but I made the mistake of first mentioning
Ronald
Reagan's
escapades
down south with his Contra pals, at
which point he literally ran across
the street
yelling "Bullshit! Bullshit! Bullshit!"
I like to think I have that same effect
with my cartoons.
------------------
Sharks can shed up to 50,000 teeth
in a lifetime, which explains why sharks
never have any money.
Fuckin' Tooth Fairy.
