Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for February 17, 2013

Heh.

Fantastic artwork! Very entertaining! Great puns! Thanks Jim for a classic! A nice diversion from the GA denizens.

@Nabuquduriuzhur: Washing was born into plantation aristocracy where plantation owners got rich from their slaves’ labor.

yes…impressive artwork

G.W could complain about the king.

Great artwork and great sentiment!

I especially like the ‘previous administration’ joke…

Goodness people go easy on each other. It is just a comic strip.

YEAH!! Touche. Pure genius.

Scancarelli’s draftsmanship is unparalleled, but his humor is pretty lame in general – lamer still when he tries to get topical.

Although Jim over looked Skeezix’s birthday this year, he did a darn good job observing President’s Day. Loved it.

When Washington was president the country used everyone else’s money (currency). When Obama is president he spends everyone else’s money..Good jokes sir.

Bravo, Sir!

Can’t you and Susan Newman keep politics out of our comic strips with your nasty comments?

a fun nod to presidents day

A comic strip which I would really prefer not to be making political statements. Reagan and Bush piled up far more debt than Obama. The previous administration richly deserves whatever “blame” it may receive.

John Adams may not have been your definition of an aristocrat, but as a founding father he was an intellectual aristocrat and detested slavery.

Since when does relating a bit of history become a complaint? Arye said nothing that would imply your reaction.

Oh, and I suppose you learned this from history? You know, the part where Roosevelt’s spending policies nearly bankrupted the country and the only reason the recession ended was because of WWII?

If the opposite of con is pro, then what is the opposite of congress?

George sort of followed Ben Franklin’s advice and married a rich widow! Franklin said young men should marry older women. Why? “Because they’re so grateful.” lol

It’s not ‘just a comic strip’ – it’s Gasoline Alley!

Let me guess, your ancestors weren’t bought and sold, beaten, raped and treated worse than animals?

A very funny comic to be sure, but not as good as the Joel and Rufus story arc!
