In Tinsley's defense, it's hard to use proper grammar when your brain is slowly being consumed by an abscess full of Ten High and hatred for young people.

On one hand, I'm not going to say I've never left out a word like 'of' while I'm typing quickly, because I would be lying.

On the other hand, I don't generally do it while (presumably) hand-lettering a comic and very carefully spacing the sentence inside the speech bubble, and it's the kind of thing you should probably double-check before submitting it.

I wonder if Trump has reversed his "they don't look like Indians to me" stance as far as Native Americans go.

If you idiots were to get moved to Europe, your first task would be to learn that no, you aren't Caucasians. Unless your ancestors came from, like, Georgia, Armenia, or Azerbaijan.

Trump wants to just send everyone who is deported to Mexico, no matter where they're from originally.

Huh, had missed that particular detail. Makes more sense with that in mind.

This guy is the closest thing:

quote:

In 1928, Curtis was the Republican candidate for Vice President, as running mate to Herbert Hoover. They won in a landslide, 58% to 41%. Curtis resigned from the Senate to assume his new office. Curtis arranged for a Native American jazz band to perform at the inauguration on 4 March 1929. Soon after the Great Depression began, Curtis endorsed the five-day work week, with no reduction in wages, as a work-sharing solution to unemployment. He was 69 when he took office, making him the second-oldest Vice President to date, behind Alben W. Barkley at 71.

Curtis' election as Vice President made history because he was the only native Kansan and only Native American to hold the post, as well as the first person of acknowledged non-European ancestry. The first American of significant Native American ancestry to be elected to such high office, Curtis decorated his office with Native American artifacts and posed for pictures wearing Indian headdresses.

Palestine finally achieves the most important milestone, namely that of being recognised as a country by noted editorial cartoon artist Michael Pramirez.

Though I don't know what Herzegovina did to deserve lowercase over Bosnia. Ramirez has strong views on the relative superiority of Balkan regions?

For whatever reason, the AAEC website runs a few cartoonists through a dayglo filter. Here's the version on Rall's site:

This happens if you save an image in CMYK color format (for printing) but it goes out to the Web (which usually expects RGB). A lot of browsers misinterpret the colors badly.

Photoshop says that Gamble image is RGB, so I assume they do some sort of conversion on the image before putting it up on the site, and it mangles it up even more.
