My favorite part of this is that Ramirez makes Erin Andrews, who is pretty much the universal definition of "pretty white woman," into some hideous, long-faced creature.

I forget, had Obama made some kind of relatively bold statement or speech around that time to trigger the cartoon or was it just a completely blatant case of "football player black, Obama black, ergo Obama = football player"?

Hamlet is already kind of a comedy of errors and its protagonist, whose primary flaw is inaction (he keeps loving up opportunities to kill his uncle, who killed his dad) constantly considers whether or not to kill himself, that's what that speech is actually about, so it's already a reasonable comparison to Congress

But I doubt Catalano has actually seen or read Hamlet so he wouldn't know that.

I'm guessing, entirely based on Benson's usual politics, that this is supposed to be "Iran still has a lit fuse! ANY DAY NOW!! :supaburn:" but for the life of me I can't actually read it as anything other than "The potential for a bomb has been destroyed thanks to U.S.-Iran cooperation."

Even if there's still powder under that fuse, without an enclosure it's not a bomb.

I mean seriously.

(To be honest it's the other way around and we're taking the half with the fuse in the deal, they still have half they can use to turn into not-a-bomb)

What's the biggest wind power company out there? I want to look at their financials and compare them to Exxon. Assuming they're public of course. I realize Branco is a hack, but I really want to know how much of a disconnect there is.

Edit: Vestas is the biggest maker, and made a profit of 82 million euros whereas Exxon had a net income of 32 billion dollars. Get hosed.

Just look at the share of US electricity produced by wind for an industry-wide comparison.


it's 4%, and that's electricity only, not counting other energy like transpo, industrial heat, etc

Nah, this is there one time getting caught and they will use it as a defence the next time this kind of thing happens (probably tomorrow). And as with all of these cartoons, it's always "An unarmed man" who gets shot. What color was his skin? looks like i'm the real racist for bringing it up.

lol @ using Gov Walker as an instrument to criticize Obama. Walker is a shithead weirdo that couldn't finish a degree at a private Jesuit college that he was bought into. Did you ever know a guy in college that was a total idiot and unironically believed in things he read on 4chan's /pol/ board? And also was such an unlikable gently caress that even the college republicans wanted nothing to do with him? Walker is that guy.
