2. Uhhh...
it is sarcastic as hell.

The point, as I see it, is that the "war on terror" is just as much of a incompetent "war" as the war on drugs is. It's like the whole "war as a solution" crap that the neocons are pushing, from the Reagan era.

3. Okay that's what I thought the joke was...
But the last frame just totally threw me off with the "crap I could really go for some marajuana right now".

4. Yeah
I believe that last line was thae sarcastic topper. In other words, of course he could get some grass so the war on drugs is really NOT working. But that is the subject for a whole other thread.

5. David Rees rules!
I have so many favorites, although his strip: One of these things is not like the other, left me on the floor.

BTW, I noticed that he was not in the latest RollingStone; what's with that?

Anyway, here's his take on feeding tubes and the culture of life.

Get Your War On #45

"Glassy eyed, no cognitive ability, persistent vegetative state. Poor Terry Schiavo--the unwitting personification of the Christian right. Except she's not a disgusting hypocrite."
