Sunday Comics: Week in Review

Now here's a review of the week, or stuff I didn't get too, or things that are funnier in comic form... First off -
Then there's the fun of European Socialism and the EU experiment. They can't go back now... but then, neither can the US. I think we're seeing the casual management of societal collapse.
And the oil spill is only a mere drop in the bucket, (BP even said so -- and, well, talk about no press release is better than that release) but never has such a disaster so clearly put a face on society's collapse. Well, at least not since Katrina.

I do wonder why people are so upset over this... and it finally hit me. It's certainly not the 11 dead oil riggers, or the grief and mourning their families are going through. That would be downright humanitarian of them. They're discussing the use of oil so casually in American society. The price hasn't been driven up, too dramatically, anyway. And then I got it! They're pissed that the price of their shrimp cocktails are skyrocketing... especially on the East Coast! If you have a better idea, please toss me an e-mail.
Meanwhile, Cap and Trade got moving in the Senate this week... This ought to be entertaining.
And while that tempest brewed, there's still a lot of fun in the SCOTUS discussion.
Pat Buchanan (and seriously, why would anyone ever give him a microphone at this point) complained that there are 6 Catholics and 3 Jews on the SCOTUS. His complaint is that this demographic doesn't correctly represent America. Hey Pat? Can they read? Can they judge what infringes on the Constitution or not? I don't care one lick what magic ghost in the sky they subscribe to as long as they are competent to understand the law. Which is what the debate is supposed to be about, right?
There are a lot of New Yorkers represented too...
I swear, the poor woman plays softball and wears a pair of Birkenstocks and the whole world just assumes she drinks from a furry cup. Look at her record!
Well, so much for that... so at least let's be honest, and blame all our problems on the Baby Boomers.
Well, that's it for this week. Go Blackhawks. Go Oil Spill - you're there as a symbol to remind us that society is going away soon, 5000 (plus/minus a couple thousand) gallons a day. See you next week.
