Nuts.
 I was
always so surprised that the Republicans never used
Osama bin Laden as a political tool. Just think
of all the resource wars they could have started,
all of the civil liberties they could have constrained, all of the money
that could have been drained out of the Treasury just by positing the spectre
of another 9-11.
What could they have been thinking?

 I
created the J.F. Kannardy character early in 2011 as
a not-even-remotely-subtle parody of the absurdly right-wing,
undeservedly smug, Mallard Fillmore comic. Every Sunday
I'd open the comics
section
of
my local newspaper and cringe at the ludicrous
Straw Man argument its creator, Bruce Tinsley,
managed to cough up between
episodes of public drunkeness.
I always intended to use Kannardy again but it's pretty
clear that MF is such a fringe comic that very few
people even understand the reference.
That being said, I'm repurposing the original artwork
today, though changing the message, because I'm frantically
juggling
three
Flash-animation
assignments and
I barely
have
time to even fire-bomb my local churches. Woe is me.

but that didn't stop him from using one
of the plan's benefits and putting his daughter
on his congressional health insurance plan. Way
