Not Too Clever Funnies


Beginning today closer to home, and as voting approaches kickoff tomorrow: the latest polling reveals Trump will carry Tayhahs comfortably (no surprise), Ted Cruz will also (only a surprise to wishful Donkeys) and Harris County will hold blue as well.

The University of Texas Longhorns were #1 in the nation, but either Cruz or Matthew McConaughey -- or was it the refs? -- jinxed it for 'em last night against the Georgia Bulldogs. Blame notwithstanding, Bevo still attracts the same amount of flies.
If Dementia Don pulls off the White House win, the Republifascists will be faced with the same concerns that the Democraps had earlier in the year.
Then again ... there's a few reasons why Kamala can't put this guy away (that don't have anything to do with him. Or Jill Stein.)
Indeed we do.
No matter which of these losers prevail, the rest of us are schlonged. We won't be hit as hard as one can get hit -- that's reserved for Palestinians -- but no matter whom, the next four years are going to be so far worse than the shitshow we've endured for the past eight ... you will not be able to measure it with modern technology.

The cartoonists, as with virtually all Western corporate media, continue to studiously ignore the pogrom in the room.
Okay, these were supposed to be 'Funnies'.

A Mockery of Democracy Funnies

"It would be a pity to believe that defeating Donald Trump goes far enough to defend democracy."
-- Ted Rall
The toon below neatly summarizes the anxious dilemma some "progressives" are going through now that the DNC and assorted henchpeople (beginning with AOC, continuing with Angela Rye, and this past week Mehdi Hassan, Thom Hartmann, and culminating with Jaime Harrison himself) are elevating in order to NOT have to declare Israel an apartheid state or to cease funding the genocide of Palestinians and now Lebanese.
This is different than trotting out the Drone Assassin in Chief Barack Obama to scold Black men and mock their masculinity about their lack of enthusiasm for voting for Kamala. That 'Joy' vibe appears to have completely run its course and I suppose they realize all they have is Fear.


I would have liked this next toon better had the artist, Emad Hajjaj, included a seventh candle holder in the fish's tail to symbolize a menorah and the appalling chutzpah of the Israeli government's relentless Holocaust recreation during the High Holy Days. Grace to him for not inciting the psychopathic Zionists any further.
Yes, Trump is a fascist but nobody voting for him seems to be bothered about it. The billionaires propping him up certainly don't.

So yes, our duopoly has reduced us to this. But it doesn't have to be that way. If you're not ready to give up on change at the ballot box, you have some options.


But time is running out.
