Iraq, Afhganistan Troops/ editorial cartoons

In bold press conferences and field photo ops Major General Electric wages a courageous campaign to win the hearts and minds of the media by launching preemptive attacks on reality. A firm believer in the ends justifying the means, Maj Gen Electric battles on despite shifting means and there being no end in sight. Bravely he continues to present the administration’s position, even as the administration heroically searches for it. Undefeated in the media wars, Maj Gen Electric leaves oponents speechless and should all else fail, shuts off the mike. He adjourns knowing well today’s problems will soon be swept away by yet new disasters. Travel with the general as we fight the oil crusade in its many manifestations.

 

zzz-major-general-electric1The Military is currently and forever asking for more troops and Major General Electric has outlined the proposed troop dispositions.

Some of the concerns of the military about previously falling enlistments seem to have been resolved by the recession proving that there is indeed a silver lining in every dark cloud.

Well if the czar didn’t quite work out as well as hoped, then we can always rely on Camelot, I guess?

If in every dark cloud there is a silver lining, then possibly in the case of our current travails it will be the lesson learned. Misters Drip & Drop examine the question of what’s been learned.

Misters Drip & Drop are not the kind of reporters who are loath to leave the studio and below they are in the street investigating a particularly gruesome murder of Mr Dollar, an American folk hero.

Another scenario is that Mr Dollar isn’t stabbed in the back in an alley, but is formally executed by the political bureaurats who after having misused Mr Dollar for their own purposes, now find him an embarrassment and decide rather than having to explain his diminished condition to the detriment of their careers, they sentence him to death. See below.

OBAMA'S ELEPHANT

OBAMA

 

 

 

THE FIRST CLUE CAME IN AN E-MAIL FROM OBAMA SEEKING SUPPORT. IN THE E-MAIL HE SAID THAT, “NOT ALL GREST IDEAS CAME FROM THE BELTWAY.” AND HE WAS GOING TO SEEK THE WISDOM OF THE FOLK OR SOME SUCH. I WAS INSPIRED BY THE CONCEPT OF GREAT IDEAS FROM THE BELTWAY AS I HAD BEEN HOPING FOR JUST THAT FOR ABOUT 49 YEARS. I GOOGLED, “GREAT IDEAS BELTWAY.” NOTHING, BUT BEILIEVING I’D LIKE TO BE ABLE TO BELIEVE IN OBAMA I HUNG IN AND GOOGLED, “BELTWAY GREAT IDEAS.” YOU KNOW THE REST. NONE OF WHAT FOLLOWERS SHOULD BE TAKEN TO MEAN WE AREN’T SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER OFF WITH OBAMA THAN McCain AND THAT’S NOT EVEN CONSIDERING McCain IS ON THE ENDANGERED SPECIES LIST AND WE COULD HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT PRESIDENT PALIN. OH MY!
NO NATION HAS EVER BROKEN MORE TREATIES WITH OTHERR NATIONS THAN AMERICA DID WITH THE NATIVE AMERICANS! THE APPALING CONDITIONS THAT PREVAIL ON RESERVATIONS, THE QUALITY OF LIFE ISSUES THAT PERTAIN TO NATIVE AMERICANS TODAY AND THE CONTINUING IMPRISONMENT OF LEONARD PELITIER MUST BE ADDRESSED BEFORE AMERICA CAN SING THE GLORIES OF ITSELF.
SO WHERE IS ALL THE MONEY OBAMA PLANS TO SPEND COMING FROM?

While no one claims to know the result, if any of the bailouts should history have any perdictive value at all it’s safe to perdict that today’s bailout advocates will distance themselves in the future. This is a picture of the first of the moves away from failed policy.

S PALIN AND THE INTELLIGENT HAND

September 22nd, 2008
by Saint Peter II

S Palin has stated that out being in Iraq a Mission “That is from God.” Many are deeply concerned about how this third league sports caster is positioned one rather faint heartbeat from the presidency should McCain be elected and live long enough to become president. Overlooked are the advantages of having a vice president or possibly president who is able to fathom the often mysterious will of God. We have every reason to believe that Palin will be further able decipher the Supreme Beings will and point out among many other matters a celestially sanctioned foreign policy, how to pay for the BIG Deep, how better to ignore the homeless and poor and possibly, and most importantly, how to sell Chevy’s and get the voters in the Midwest back on their feet. Such problematically bedeviled matters as to how to dispose of illegal immigrants, kids who wear their pants too low and pot smokers should be a cinch what with Palin having a hot line to the BIG GUY.

Maj Gen Electric New Troop Levels

September 20th, 2008
by Saint Peter II

new troop deployments have been announced by Maj Gen Electric. While leaving considerable room for maneuver, the deployments have been heralded by their authors for their inclusiveness. Adherents claim that not only do the deployments allow for strategic considerations, but also take into account the budgetary wars necessary to maintain the military in the fashion to which it has become accustomed. No offal word on the deployment of the nine Gulf Stream jets the pentagon ordered but sources close to the pentagon and other major corporations left little doubt that they would be deployed as necessary to Hawaii and the Caribbean, most certainly in the winter.
