Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley for July 16, 2016

Umm, Darby could you make your handwriting a little bit bigger and easier to read XD

This strip is so old, it’s pinin’ for the fjords.

Everyone’s been asking “Hoosier Veep, Donald?”

Politics? I’d rather talk Python.

After many decades of this circus every four years, people continue to buy into it and support the Demo and Repu Shows. Thank you for your patronage.

As a Monty Python fan, this strip had me RFOL!!! :D

Mike Pence, “a Christian, a conservative and a Republican in that order” according to himself. Interesting. No mention of being an American.

Time warp alert: trapped in 2008?

I don’t care about republicans or democrats. I just vote for whomever I like.

Agree with Sharknose, this was magnificent word play.

Anyone know why this whole week has been reruns from 2008? Doesn’t Trump provide enough of a target that they have to dredge up Palin?

Good thing Satchel is a Canadian, he doesn’t have a vote.

Her chief weapon is ignorance. Ignorance and stupidity. Her two chief weapons are…

Next will be the “comfy chair”

Still laughing.

Satch is hilarious with his comments – he is in his own (very funny) world!

Omg..Palin’s actually looking good right now.

“I came here for a good argument.”“No you didn’t…”

why are we reading a 2008 strip?

From what I have read, Mr. Conley has lost his zeal for creating a daily “Get Fuzzy,” and all of his weekly installments have been reruns, since 2013. He only does new cartoons on Sunday. Consequently, his cartoon has been dropped from the “Washington Post,” and the “Seattle Times.” He has never really come out and said why he has chosen to work in this manner. Perhaps a Sunday only format would be better. I expect it is not that simple, however, and very likely involves contracts and money. I hope it is not his health that is causing this predicament.

The problem this week is that the reruns are very confusing, if you have never read “Get Fuzzy,” before, given the political climate at the moment, with Clinton and Trump, and do not know that these installments are classics. The copyright says, 2008, but can easily be missed, given the size of the printing, and I would venture to say, that most people, including myself, pay little attention to the copyright date on a cartoon and are only looking for a little comic relief in our daily lives.

All in all, it is 6 cartoons that don’t make much sense, and next week, all the attention, will likely be on another subject, with the GF gang,so I guess we just have to go with the flow and either read the strip as a classic, or just ignore it. I hope Mr. Conley can get back to his daily routine, but if not, it will always be one of my classic favorites and I look forward to each new Sunday release, as well, and hope that he will continue to provide that for many years to come.

Too dated to be interesting.

Sigh. It would be nice if you could turn to the funny pages to escape politics. Alas…
