I am amused this is probably a reference to a Looney Tunes gag from the episode Fresh Hare. (As well as a couple other episodes.) The thing is, it's Bugs Bunny who somehow goes around the tree like that, while Elmer Fudd ends up crashing into the tree afterwards. So in Glenn's mind Obama/Bugs Bunny is the bad guy.

This is what I've heard from a Republican, which means this is without a doubt the official GOP rebuttal to how much people can't stand their favorite pet branch of gov't.

McCullough, to discuss his comics False Idols: Boomer Icons And Their Crimes and The White Man’s Burden. Then we get into a microscopic discussion about obit cartoons and Shirley Temple.

Yeah, todays performers are complete floozies, unlike the irreproachable stars of the past. Wikipedia posted:Based on Temple's many screen successes, Zanuck increased budgets and production values for her films. In 1937, John Ford was hired to direct the sepia-toned Wee Willie Winkie (Temple's own favorite) and an A-list cast was signed that included Victor McLaglen, C. Aubrey Smith, and Cesar Romero. The film was a critical and commercial hit but British writer and critic Graham Greene muddied the waters in October 1937 when he wrote in a British magazine that Temple was a "complete totsy" and accused her of being too nubile for a nine-year-old: Oh wait, people have been saying the same bullshit about the 'loose morals' of the entertainment industry since time immemorial.

Actually I think that ski gag pops up in a lot of different contexts, it's more or less a part of the public consciousness now.

Graham Greene slept with pretty much anything in a skirt and reputedly had a thing for young Italian boys as well. So he may well have been capable of finding young Shirley Temple erotic.

I would never punch anyone in the face, because it's wrong. However, much like Silvio Berlusconi was smashed in the face by a tiny replica house of worship, Allie being punched in the face would cause me to nod and go, "Yes. Of course that happened."

I don't think I "get" Eric Allie the way everyone else seems to. Almost every strip he does is about the MAINSTREAM MEDIA!!! and his art style is pretty much the same as other conservative artists like TenNapel and Barry and possibly the Ren and Stimpy guy - sharp angles, Saturday morning cartoon styled coloring, and that weird sense of potty humor (Furious....DIAPER) that belies deep-seated sexual frustration (Allie not so much as the others but still.) He just doesn't rack up mileage on my Fuckyoumeter like the McCoys and Lester do.

So did anyone decide to mock the other cartoonists by having a grown-up Shirley Temple talking to St. Peter, who's confused because he was expecting a little girl? I figured there would be at least one smart-rear end cartoonist that would do something like that.

Investor's Business Daily's entire philosophy is to pay people to make articles or cartoons with the message "Democrats bad" and occasionally "Republicans good" No one who paid for a subscription to IBD will cancel because they think it's blatant conservative propaganda that insults their intelligence and plays cheerleader for the worst poo poo imaginable. Neither talent, legitimacy or comprehensibility are required, only the ability to regurgitate Fox News talking points Naturally, Ramirez makes a decent living as their staff cartoonist.
