"Garry Trudeau is the premier American social and political satirist of his time." -Newsweek Doonesbury has managed to be articulate, abrasive, political, compassionate, misunderstood, misprinted, and outrageous - but one thing it's never been is complacent. Garry Trudeau's creation has chronicled American history and culture in a parallel universe. And through it all, Doonesbury has always been honest, entertaining, and thought-provoking.

Just thought of a new bumper sticker: “Practice cognitive dissonance.”

After glancing at the comments over the last couple of days…Doesn’t anyone else think Trudeau is also criticizing the too-many members of the left wing who can’t handle the cognitive dissonance of every day modern life?

What other president in recent memory would actually know that? Heh, Trudeau is just letting us know that there are more fanatics on the left than we like to admit. And NPR has had a few well balanced criticisms of the new guy. Even on Wait, Wait Don’t Tell Me, last weekend.

In the last panel, who is asking the question, and who is answering it?

Hope “Leon” is present at the House/Senate Health Care reconciliation meetings.

Wait, wait is basically a commedy show. Everyone is always fair game.

Lately APHC has been awful. GK is not penning political jokes anymore. Maybe he will pick up the pace.

The best way to handle cognitive dissonance is to ignore it entirely, and go through life creating one’s own reality. Otherwise one will just get frustrated and grouchy.

Its one of the aids saying “Who the hell is…” and the prez answering. So Trudeau is having it both ways a little bit by saying that even though this president’s Afgan policy is wrong, he’s smart enough to know who Festinger is, and to know that Mark is right.

No question Obama’s smart. Probably the smartest president since Nixon… whose war policies he seems to be following to the letter. Expect the “surge” to be followed by expensive, high-profile programs to build up the Afghan military (“Afghanization”?), followed by a withdrawal (“the Afghans stand up as we stand down”), followed by a “decent interval” before the puppet government’s inevitable collapse (“wasn’t our fault”). Nobel Prizes for everybody!
