Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for May 24, 2015

The Senate did give him fast track on trade.

Honestly, this is exactly what would happen.

“The Loyal Oppposition”- something current Republicans have no risk of being accused of.

Which is why we need a true third party, one that will advocate for, um, a colorless sky…

As usual, Garry has the truth in a nutshell.

I love the interview Trudeau did wear he said he couldn’t find anything satirical about Obama because he was a true centrist.

The sky is NOT blue. It has no color at all. The sky is the medium through which blue light travels. It appears blue because the other frequencies are filtered out by various atmospheric conditions.

President Obama should make a public proclamation; “Breathing is good”. Then sit back and watch as 93% of Republicans drop dead within 30 minutes.

Can you imagine a Huckabee or Santorum theocracy? How’s about a Trump idiocracy? Bernie’s too old, like Reagan. Hillary is a militarist and corporatist(that translates to just another fascist). The prospect of Latino support putting Jeb or Marco over the top is really, really scary,Who does that leave? Another first term(essentially) senator with an academic background? Obama couldn’t get tough enough fast enough, and didn’t hit the ground running like he needed to. Could Elizabeth do it? Maybe, with the right team. We’ll see. Another seven months or so before it gets deadly serious!

If a Democrat said the sky was a different color now than when the question was first asked, they would be crucified for inconsistency.

It’s all the fault of Charlie Hebdo. Blame them, Gary.

The background on this page is not white. If you look at your monitor, you will see the colors red, green and blue; which seem to combine to form white. This text is not black. It is the absence of light. Life is an illusion.

You bunch of hypocritical skyists! What difference does the color of the sky make? The sky is the sky, everywhere, and I say the sky should be treated equally no matter the “shade”.

Doonsebury is dead, because Trudeau can’t find himself to criticize a Democrat. Obama is a criminal, a cynical mouthpiece for the ruling class, and people around the world see the Dems for what they really are – partners with the Repubs in defending this poisonous for-profit system.

let’s not forget that Obamacare was originally the idea of that rich Mormon republican, whathisname!

What a bunch of liberal hooey. How I wish Trudeau would reform and keep his nose out of stuff he doesn’t understand.

The Legislature, where entitled people really go to take advantage of Government handouts. Less work than being unemployed.

Agreed

A fresh start: Direct voting for a completely new set of candidates. No incumbents allowed. Candidates can give 1 30-minute speech carried live on all networks and the internet. No private money allowed and a set budget. Every party can propose one and one only candidate for each office. Standard length terms of office; no incumbents can run again. Salary is the medium wage for the local area. Medical care through Medicare only; age limit removed so at one stroke there is universal health care. Judges are chosen by members of the bar, are paid the same no matter what the level of the court, and are required to put in 40-hour work weeks. Every worker gets the same benefits no matter how many hours she/he works. No local government below the state; below that an administrator. Once in office, a candidate may not take a position on any bill that he or she has not read completely.

This is right on. I have contended for years that if Obama said that the sun rose in the west and set in the east, the Republicans would oppose that statement.

Climate change" “I’m not a scientist.”Trickle-down? “I’m not an economist.”Planned parenthood? “I AM an expert on women’s health!”

So that’s why they opposed the TPP. No wait, its the Dems that oppose and the President and Repubs that are pushing it.

“Between night and heavy cloud cover, the sky is actually black more often than it’s blue, but it can’t make it thru even half a day being any one color.”.Due to electromagnetic resonance, blue is absorbed and scattered randomly better than any other color. Therefore, the sky itself is always blue even if the blue is faint or is overwhelmed by the clouds which may be any color due to thickness and time of day.

“Let us not forget that there is no such thing as “Obamacare.””.Sometimes there is, sometimes there isn’t. It all depends on the one using the title and if it is popular or not.President Obama embraced the term and said soon everybody would love it.Soon.Very soon

“What are the chances of someone with a science background ever being elected president?”.Jimmy CarterThomas JeffersonGeorge WashingtonWoodrow Wilson (political science counts, right?)So what are we up to? four out of 44 or nearly 9.1% odds?

I’m a Democrat and I oppose that statement!

@bherbert.“This is right on. I have contended for years that if Obama said that the sun rose in the west and set in the east, the Republicans would oppose that statement.”.Are you saying we Democrats would agree with it?.(Let’s see if I got my asterisks in the right place this time.)

Well, when asked, Neil Degrass Tyson looked that the person who asked him if he’d Run and replied:“Just how Insane do you think I am?”.

Sky is blue, unless its sunrise or sunset, then its red (pink). And sometimes during sunset – we get orange and green. Northern Lights have green. I think I covered all 3 major Canadian parties.

“Yes, white is a color even if you don’t accept it. Next thing you know you will tell us that black isn’t a color either.”.Yep, neither existed on the electromagnetic spectrum..A white body reflects all incident radiation.A black body absorbs all incident radiation and emits radiation according to its absolute temperature.Simple physics.

“Abraham Lincoln is the only president with a patent. ( Jefferson created things before patents it seems.)”.Patents were written into the Constitution but George Washington’s cousin was in charge of the patent office and didn’t believe in patents..You don’t have to be a scientist to get a patent, though.

Unfortunately for Mr. Obama, the sky is not blue. It only appears that way because of our atmosphere. The Pubs might have a point here, but it would take an astronomer, not a meteorologist to explain it. So both sides wrong, per usual!!
