    I tell my Chinese students the reason Americans love their country so much is because if we’re not happy with our rulers, we can fire them without killing anyone.

    You have GOT to be kidding me! It’s time for a new revolution to get rid of the joke of a president we have now. Our country isn’t gonna last through the 4 years of this guy.

    A smart, moderate man who loves his wife and kids and is keeping us from what would have been worse than the Great Depression had the wrinkly old white guy been elected. Yeah. We don’t deserve four years without idiots, torturers, the senile and the womanizers giving away our paychecks to the megarich!

    It took 8 years to get where we there, It ain’t gonna get cured for a loooong time. By the time his term is up we might be back on an even keel. And you know that whatever happens, a lot of people are only going to emphasise his errors.

    I like this comic. Too bad you have to insert your politics here!

    True. To bad we can’t put the bill in the hands of those responsible, huh?

    All I know is that our founding fathers are spinning in their graves, this is NOT what they fought for. Our country needs those radical thinkers back, ones that weren’t worried about their own needs but the needs of all. Happy 4th of July

    Carla, I really like your comic stip. Especially since my name is Claire. Personally though, I for one would not like to see this comic strip turn political. I like your comic strip for your comedic out look on life, not for your politics.
    I hope you and yours have a Happy 4th of July.

    Another Claire

    Comics have ALWAYs been political forums
    Flamebait aside the 1st amendment is still in effect
    Therefore everyone has the right to voice an opinion, even cartoonists

    I’m so happy to see people using their First Amendment rights here! The comic gave me a big grin, but of course people have a right to disagree. Free speech - that’s what America is about. Happy Fourth!

    The first newspaper cartoon published in the United states was by Ben Franklin.
    It was political.

    I so agree with Sammie and am rooting for Obama to get some serious improvements done for the good of this country. Happy 4th, everybody.

    When i read this strip in my newspaper this morning, I though, ooo, that’s gonna spark a few flames.

    älas, as a Canadian, I am a wretched outcast, without a right to express an opinion on such a tender and delicate subject”

    on the contrary Burgundy2 everyone should have the right to voice their thoughts - - besides what happens down here affects what happens up there

    these convo’s have turned into dunsbury :p with all the politics talk.
    I’m glad I’m in Canada. free health care, our prime minister is alright, and we are free to do anything. Unlike America where you have to pay an arm and a leg for health care, your OLD president sucked and usually young kids get drafted to go into the military! kill others and kill yourself for your country.. ya, i would rather live then do that. Don’t get me wrong, i love this country, but the war should stop, and America should be more free. Like Canada:D
