2fer WTF: Advertisement for dog tags with Shrub's name. & B.C.comix re Capitalism

[UTUSN]

I guess both items below might both be about capitalism, the first being a selling ploy, the second (somebody explain it to me).

Opened up this month's VFW magazine and there was an advertisement for Medals of America, which sells veterans' stuff--ribbons, medals, flags, whatever. I have been their customer, along with several other such companies, for years here and there. But this ad was for dog tags and the pictured tags have Shrub's name on them, with a middle initial "S" instead of "W". This made me FUME (oh, btw, there was another set "John KENNEDY") and I called, "I've been a customer for years, small orders whatever. I have a complaint, not about your products, about an advertisement. I don't want you to agree or disagree with me on the phone, just want you to pass on what I say. I was DISGUSTED to see (Shrub's) name on the tags. This was a man who did everything he could to shirk service and just partied his brains out. Then he got us into this wrong war and even this oil leak can be laid at his feet for taking off the regulations. I don't know whether I'll stop being your customer, the small stuff I buy won't matter anyway. That's all." After a long silence the dude (the ads say that VETERANS are the phone staff) said politely, "Thank you for your comments, sir. I will pass them on."

Now, this other one, I sincerely don't know how to interpret and will appreciate anybody's clarification. I know that the late Johnny HART was a Fundie, not sure of his politics beyond that, AND that after his death his successors have published some comix panels that are distinctly LIB. I myself am a Big Umbrella Dem, and fit somewhere in the whole Democratic HALF of the entire spectrum, am certainly not a Robber Baron Capitalist and yet not an outright Socialist. I'm just trying to figure out this B.C. It sure LOOKS bad for "Capitalism"? What does it MEAN?!1

1. That B.C. cartoon boggles my mind.

In capitalism, hate kills love? Capitalism is like a knife through the heart? Capitalism stabbed me? I mean, they're all true, really.

2. Do those tags call...

Bush, "A POS Protestant," as in "A Piece of Shit Protestant"?
I know that's supposed to be Blood Type in that line usually.

From what I found doing a quick Google search, his actual type is O-somehting (likely positive)
