I couldn’t believe my eyes when I was watching these liberal pundits scream for even MORE spending over the weekend. My God, when will it end?

Looks like the 4 day rally couldn’t make 5. At least it didn’t plummet.
It’s strange how Don’s remark of “I’m not having kids, so I win!” sums up the liberal ideal of helping in the short term while ignoring the long term so perfectly.
LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS LIBERALS
Every single RLC is this:
In a way it’s a positive thing that he’s not having children.
Ahhhhhhh so Hamburglar you admit that all those that oppose Hapa are raving lunatics!!
That link doesn’t work.
Huh, it does for me, weird.
I fixted it.
Why thank you.
But yeah, if you’re gonna do a political comic, you should mix it up a little. Don’t be another Mallard Fillmore or Chuck Asay, or on the other side of the spectrum, Minimum Security. You should expand things a little more, have it be more than the elephant acting high and mighty and the donkey acting retarded. Your art has potential, but it’s being wasted on really annoying strawman arguments with c/p’d panels. Maybe give the elephant and the donkey some flaws (or in the donkey’s case, redeeming qualities) or interesting character traits? Right now, the elephant seems nothing more than a vehicle for your political rantings, and the donkey an extreme exaggeration of what you think liberals are like. That’s boring, change things up a bit.
Basically, make your punchlines be something more than just “those damn liberals!”
Nah. Thanks though.
Alright, just making sure you’re fine with being bad. Whew, I’m glad we’re on the same page, then.
If I had the time do do a fully developed web comic every day, I’d be drawing Electronic Tigers. RLC is all cut and paste, set up, punch-line for a reason.
BTW, the argument in this particular strip isn’t a ’straw man’ argument. It’s practically word-for-word what I heard the liberal pundits saying this weekend. If you have a problem with the stupidity of their argument… take it up with them. lol
A man who thought investing in an MLM scheme was a more worthy endeavor than feeding his family presumes to preach economics. Classic.
oh, and before I forget, deficits as a result of domestic spending, baaaaaad, deficits as a result of paying a bunch of redneck mercenaries to go shoot at Iraqis, goooooooood
Damn, that record keeps skipping.
Must be cheap . . .
Rather than tired cliches about records, perhaps you’d like to rationally address the following :
You’re a man who was dumb enough to think a pyramid scheme would be profitable, even after dozens of people proved to you that it was in fact a money hole.
You’re a man who is now presuming to know something, anything about the economy.
You’re a man raving about deficit spending who was curiously silent about when that deficit spending was going into the pockets of KBR, Blackwater, General Dynamics, Lockheed Martin, etc etc and the (thankfully former) Vice President claimed that “deficits don’t matter.”
In short you’re a drunken 14 year old student driver whom, after driving the car sideways through a schoolyard and off of a cliff, is shaking his finger at the driving instructor and saying “NO NO YOU’RE DOING IT ALL WRONG”
Do you have a dictionary? If so, please look up “cognitive dissonance” (assuming you haven’t tossed the dictionary by because it is too secularist and/or pagan)
Every MLM is not a pyramid scheme. Avon, Tupperware, Amway, Enagic, Xango, Mona Vie, and yes, Dubli all have valid business models, some that have lasted decades, and some that ‘moved on’ to more traditional retail marketing. In my joining various MLM’s over the years, I have to look at the service and ask if it’s something I would use myself, if it’s something I believe in as a product, or if it provides me and other users with a service. If they don’t, I won’t even consider it.
Poo-poo MLM’s/network marketing all you like, but they aren’t all ‘ponzi schemes’, and I do try to make sure the ones I pick aren’t by exactly the standards I just mentioned. They may not always pan out the way I’d envision, either because I’m just not that good a salesman, or for whatever reason, but that doesn’t make them scams either.
Deficit spending isn’t in and of itself the harbinger of doom. Spending on necessary infrastructure, on military security, on the things the government is constitutionally mandated to take care of… all that is sound, although if we cut all the BS pork from our budget, that wouldn’t be deficit spending, and all of us could have a nice tax break and the economy could grow from the added funds pumping through it.
Funds that would be ‘real’, not funds stolen from our future and our children and grandchildren’s future to pump imaginary funds into the economy to try to make it grow.
That you don’t know this means you’re the one with the cognitive dissonance problem, buddy.
When I was younger and dumber (like you), I used to whip out my credit card, and say ‘charge it future-Hapa’. Well you know? I enjoyed whatever I spend future-Hapa’s money on at the time. But eventually present-Hapa became future-Hapa, and you know what? Present-Hapa actually had to pay those bills.
Reality is like that, you know. Maybe when you grow up, you can understand that.
Awww, it’s so adorable how you think you’re a mature, rational person.
When the ability to respond with a cogent thought, the insult stands alone.
bahahah, thanks for the lecture, it was like reading a seventh-grader’s term paper.
In the future, please don’t make your inability to manage your money sound like something in the distant past when “HAY I’LL BANKRUPT MYSELF AND RATHER THAN DO THE RESPONSIBLE THING AND GET A JOB I’LL THROW WHAT LITTLE CASH I HAVE INTO A PYRAMID SCHEME! EVEN THOUGH IT WAS DEMONSTRATED TO ME REPEATEDLY THAT IT WAS IN FACT A SCAM!” was a scant couple of months ago
Try and defend it all you want, your still a moron for falling for the scheme. But don’t worry soon your ship will sail in with the death of your rich Nigerian uncle. Hell, you might even be able to extend your penis by 3 inches while your at it.
I don’t need to defend myself to you, Studawg. You’re less than nothing to me.
what’s all this about happa throwing money into a pyramid scheme?
I don’t know the story
I have in times past, and may well again in the future, joined programs which allow me to represent unique products or services I deemed worthwhile that I would use myself. In fact, my wife currently uses a product called Mona Vie which has healed the eczema she’s had on her hands and arms for like a decade. At some point, I may invest in joining that company as a representative.
eeegah guys let it go.
Going after Hapa on this one thing over and over is just pathetic.
Also, YEAH credit card bills will hurt you financially! Put that on top of student loans (if you have them) and you are probably going to get at LEAST $500 out of your paycheck every month. Not to mention other expenses. You also have to take into account where Hapa lives. I’ve heard about the mortgages and rent that they have in CA and it ain’t peanuts folks.
btw, I love how everyone talks about socialized medicine and throwing money into giving loans to people who can’t afford them, and all these people can’t “help” where they are. However, when Hapa goes into something that he RESEARCHED, LOOKED into, and made a PERSONAL decision to try out, the response is “Get a job”.
Excuse me if I find this hilarious.
You’re right, it is pathetic, as advocating Dubli is far from the stupidest thing he’s ever said.
Student loans are for pussy elitist book-learnin’ faggots who want the Syrians to win
Kind of funny how most of the spending is not going to be spent until 2010 and almost nothing has to do with creating long-term jobs.
Wow steve, I was trying to give you the benefit of the doubt . . . but you really are a moron.
And you’re a faggot, so hey, it all works out.
Eww I hate that smiley
Well Hamburglar I already knew you were a moron, but thanks for solidifying that for me.
and what does everyone have against bundles of sticks anyway?
Oh, FO, please just stop pretending you don’t like men and fess up. Clearly something you wrote gave away the fact that you prefer the company of men than women, and that brilliant wordsmith, Hamburglar saw ’straight’ through you.
hapa…that was just AWFUL
Ugh, Hapa, you caught me.
Men are just too damn attractive . . .
Hey congrats to Hamburglar, who just won our first ‘Liberal IDIOT of the Day award’!!!
Which was no small feat, you had some pretty stiff competition!
Sigh…wake me up when Electronic Tigers is back.
Oh no, I am less than nothing to a racist neo-con moron.However will I sleep at night?
Oh no someone pasted an image in my post! Whatever will I do?!
ADAM AND EVE NOT ADAM AND STEVE FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
steve, your F button is broken . . .
I think his ’stupid’ button is broken. He seems stuck on it.
Says the raging homophobe/creationist
I observe the level of dispute on this one is making a spirited attempt at burrowing through the rock bottom. Wouldn’t it be simpler if you guys just copy-pasted “No, *you* are the idiot” at each other or something…?
Leaving that aside, WTF do ‘our kids’ have to do with the strip topic? By the time they become full-fledged participants in the US economy current budget deficits will be a fairly irrelevant historical detail anyway. States can, have and do carry absolutely mind-boggling deficits, foreign debts and what-have-you and still not only keep going quite well but also fail to implode or turn into third-world hellholes. I mean, Japan topped the previous world record in foreign debt (set by the UK during WW2) sometime in the early 2000s and is still standing. After WW1 both France and the UK were up to their ears in debt and Germany was a starving wreck (and the whole lot had enough war trauma for at least a generation), and all had rebounded within a decade…
Pretty sure the past eight or so Bush years weren’t exactly the most fiscally disciplined and healthy in US history either, but the state’s still afloat.
OTOH, if splurge spending indeed manages to stave off the Great Depression Act Two then there should be little problem making good of the worst of the debt burden during the recovery period – and I rather imagine another major global economic meltdown would create RATHER a bit more “burden” for “our kids” than any amount of damage-control spending.
The point the comic tries to make kinda fails that way IMO.
The only reason you had to resort to investing in ponzi schemes is because you lost your job doing mainstream comic stuff by posting a bunch of rabidly anti-homosexual stuff on message boards while associating yourself with the comic book companies who asked you to stop because they didn’t want to be associated with homophobic bullshit.
