    He’ll be permanantly green from that limelight very shortly.

    No, it’s a comic strip, Mark, slanted y9our way, of course.

    This could be the Wesley Clark story…except that Clark didn’t rabble-rouse, wasn’t canned, and isn’t on TV every night.

    Must count as a dead ringer in Wingerland.

    He strikes me as a amalgam of Curtiss LeMay, Douglas McArthur, and perhaps others.

    This is where Sandy’s Trainer teaches Sandy to stand on his hind paws, mimicking the statue on the TV.

    I’m still waiting for Punjab and the Asp to reappear.
    Anyway, I think Annie is the best of the ongoing story strips today.

    While US Army General (Retired) Wesley Clark’s situation might remind one of what happened to the fictional character of FORCED INTO RETIREMENT Gen. Gilead V. Grimm, Wes Clark NEVER has acted like the Grimm character.

    In the Oklahoma Democratic Primary Election when he was running for the Office of the President of the USA, Wes won that one. I liked Wes and I am being personal here because he is a Brother military-wise and a brother in the Lord, too.

    The “W” Bush Administration did not like Clark because he was an honorable man and he could use words with more than two syllables. As for this character in the strip, he does not remind me of anyone real. Even MacArthur knew when to keep his mouth shut.

    When did MacArthur learn that? But Annie, has always been a “political” cartoon with a very pronounced point of view. Some individual Sunday strips used to be down right blatant. But the story has always been entertaining. That isn’t at all, all bad. Where are Asp and Punjab?
