Pat Oliphant for November 26, 2012

YAYYYYY!!!

NEW OLIPHANT!

Whew! I was worried…

Is that WC Fields as Uncle Sam? This fiscal cliff may drive me to drink…I’ll never be able to thank it enough!

heh, love the little side comment in the bottom left side…

FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY a new Oliphant! I just wish he hadn’t skipped the last two months of the election (for whatever reason…I just hope that his health, personal situation, family situation, and all are fine).@hankoliniOliphant’s been drawing Uncle Sam as W.C. Fields for decades now, I think.

YAY! A new Oliphant! Missed him much! I’m a Dem, but notice how Obama is slipping out the back? The President proposes, but Congress disposes (of us?)

Welcome back!!! I hope your vacation was as wonderful as you deserve and really recharged your batteries. I missed you a lot. You are the best!

I love the little characters in all the TOONs.

Only if they are republicans. ‘’free stuff’’ now have a drink!!!!!!!!!!!

WELLCOME BACK, PAT! I do have to say, however, that your September 12, 2012, cartoon remained timely throughout your absence. Brilliant.

I’ve had this quotation in my head for many years and wish I could remember its origin:.“God in his wisdom watches over drunks, small children, and The United States of America.”

“Go Comics” said he was on vacation. Can’t believe Oliphant took off during the election season.

I wonder if Mr. Oliphant ever reads these forums.With no comment on this particular toon I want to add my voice to all those who are glad to see this talented artist back at work.Happy Holidayze!C.

Yea!! He’s back!! Huzzah, huzzah, huzzah!!!

“It’s ‘Yea!’ meaning ‘Yes!’ not ‘Yay.’”

No, I meant “Yay!” as in “Hurrah!”, not “Yea!” as in “Yes!” I’m cheering, not voting. No offense. :-)

He’s baaaaack! Best of the new news- good to see U again!

It’s ALIVE! Ahem, I think the energizer bunny is a reference to the campaigns just going on and on and on…….. as in neverending.

I have never seen the cheer spelled out as “Yea”, and as it’s a celebratory outburst and therefore somewhat onomatopoeic, I frankly am unconcerned.

And if you presume to question my literacy, I have a question for YOU:

How do you spell “PBBPPPLLFFFTTT!!!”?

@eryx: Definition of ‘free stuff’ — something bought with money the Republicans wanted to give to the rich.

@fritzoid: “PBBPPPLLFFFTTT!!!” is spelled “bi-labio lingual forced fricative,” according to my old linguistics teacher. (I asked.)

emptc12: Sounds like Twain, not sure.
