1. Sad that just weeks before the spill the administration just *had to* adopt their drilling policies

and announce that rigs are safe and don't cause spills.

One of the biggest political blunders missed opportunities in moderrn US history.

2. Isn't this from a couple weeks ago?

[SunsetDreams]

4. you are right,

I updated my message. It was new to me.

[asdjrocky]

5. Yeah.

Saw it like 2 weeks ago. Some folks are so transparent. Just like all the copycat happy birthday posts.

[SunsetDreams]

6. Can you elaborate please?

You don't like an OP that has a cartoon that blasts Republicans?

Some people don't pay attention day in and day out to cartoons. I just became aware of this one.

[asdjrocky]

10. I can explain, I'm an idiot.

Total misreading and thin skin coupled with a long day. Will you accept my apologies?

[SunsetDreams]

12. No problem lol

Indiana Green posted it in another thread, and I thought it was funny. I hadn't seen it before, so I decided to make it an OP. If others are like me and pay more attention to the news, policy etc, they might not have seen the cartoon either.

There is so much angst, I just wanted a break.

[asdjrocky]

13. And it's a very good cartoon.

I've been doing that a lot lately, perhaps it's time for new glasses.

Again, my sincere apologies.

[SunsetDreams]

15. lol yes it is

No problem, it happens to the best of us.

11. The cartoonist is the same one that came up with the

"sensible woodchuck" character that's driving some people insane. It's kind of reminding me of the the Tell-Tale Heart, for some reason.

[SunsetDreams]

14. ahhh

I think it is subject to interpretation. My interpretation is the woodchuck is a republican, by what he is saying in this cartoon.




It's no wonder some don't like the use of woodchuck around here.

[Raineyb]

21. You need to catch up with the cartoon. The woodchuck has already been

introduced as a "sensible liberal" It is NOT a Republican.

[SunsetDreams]

24. by your interpretation, which is not my interpretation,

that means that those using it, are attacking Liberals?
something is wrong with that:crazy:

[laughingliberal]

22. Chuckles debut appearance would suggest otherwise:

[SunsetDreams]

25. I already seen that, and I don't agree

Cartoons are always subject to interpretation.

[laughingliberal]

26. Uh, the cartoon is entitled, "The Sensible Liberals Guide to Liberalism in the Age of Obama."

I'm gonna gowith the cartoonist's interpretation of what he wrote.

[SunsetDreams]

27. and you are free to do that,

Maybe the woodchuck wasn't how he meant it to be used, who knows. I can't read his mind.
Readers interpret things all the time, it's nothing new.

[frylock]

28. uhhh wrong..

you go right ahead and "interpret" chuckles as you see fit. i'll take the artist's interpretation, which IMHO, is not open to interpretation.

[Brickbat]

8. Wait, wha?

I hope you don't think I was attacking the OP. I was just clarifying to make sure I wasn't confused.

[SunsetDreams]

9. Brickbat, don't worry I knew you weren't

[proud2BlibKansan]

3. LOL

[many a good man]

7. Spill? What spill?

Is it bad? Should I care?

Sorry, I haven't been keeping up on the news as much as I should.
