Robert Ariail for April 23, 2019

Another deflection from the extreme (supposedly) “christian” right wing.

Trump’s reaction to Mueller being chosen, and then his distortions of what Barr claimed the report said, indicate that there is a lot more in the report which Congress needs to see.

Really? Do you really compare Burr with Moses?

The Ten Commandments have redactions ?

I doubt Ariail knows it, but the 10 Commandments, and indeed the entire Torah, are short-hand. If you want to read the unexpurgated version, read the Talmud. All twenty volumes.

There is so much wrong with this toon, it’s impossible to know where to start. Except that this is offensive to pretty much everyone.

How duplicitous can you get? There is no comparison between the Ten Commandments and a redacted investigation summary given by barr. Nice dog whistle to the reactionary religious right though.

You’re DAMN RIGHT we want the ENTIRE UNREDACTED REPORT!!!!

The god of the Old Testament was responsible for the deaths of countless innocent people. He should be subpoenaed.

Ariail seems to be more concerned with being controversial by creating absurd and pointless cartoons rather than by contributing rationally to the debate. I respect Ariail’s right to foist gibberish onto this audience and to scam his editors by heckling, baiting, and needling intelligent, educated, and experienced patriots to the delight of benighted Capo-in-Chief sycophants, lickspittles, toadies, suck-ups, henchmen, apparatchiks, stooges, and thugs, but I do object to Ariail’s implication that the Capo-in-Chief & his administration are the historic equivalent to what seems to be God Almighty. I know the Capo-in-Chief would agree with Ariail’s apotheosis but, when the Capo-in-Chief agrees with ANYONE’s understanding of the world, that on its own should give even Ariail pause.

So, you’re comparing Barr to….God?

Clearly, my comment is far, far above your comprehension level. If there’s an adult in the room, ask him/her to help you with the big words and the (to you) complex sentences. Good luck. Keep pounding those rocks together!

Trump should be glad that smiting appears out of favor these days.

Remember, the MAJOR difference between donald trump and God, is that God doesn’t think that he’s donald trump…

So Bill Barr is God now?

Given that the REDACTED report makes it clear that #45 acted to obstruct justice (whether his people refused does NOT obviate his guilt, Republicans, any more than “attempted murder” isn’t a crime if you fail), was utterly corrupt, and lied over and over again about his connection with the Russians, knowing they were trying to hack our election – then what horrors lurk in the 10% we cannot see?

Why should THIS PRESIDENT’S hand-picked people get to hide ANY of it from Congress, let alone the American people?

You’re on the wrong side of history, ethics, AND common sense with this, Ariail…

Republicans think that they are god now.

The Ten Commandments do not find that God is not exonerated. But I can tell someone’s been burning some bush.

According to Mel Brooks, there were 15 commandments, but Moses dropped one of the tablets.

The specifics in the 10 commandments vary by religion.

Republicans redact some of the Commandments — especially that pesky one about bearing False Witness.

Barr’s lying is documented. It is why he was selected to be Trump’s personal lawyer.

We get a glimpse of how Ariail perceives the Trump administration. Frightening.

Well, Mel Brooks had it as 15 originally – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXeTsWGPT0w

tRump uses the 10 Commandments, except for maybe #6 which he has lots of people who will do it for him so he doesn’t have to risk injury to his bone spurs, as a checklist of rules he should break on a daily basis.

Is that Moses’ head exploding because Barr is being compared to him?

I do see that this whole thing has taken on the blind faith aspects of religion, but I also see that some of the participants are paying attention to at least some of the facts, whereas the others are paying attention mostly to Faux Snooz.

Donnie Dump has never had a problem breaking most of them and the evangelicals seem to love him

It’s the hundreds of laws the “bible” religions, which include Islam btw-as the old testament is basic Sharia. Sharia maybe less harsh in some ways. Then there’s all the laws in the New book. All tend to say if you don’t like this one that says no, there’s another that says yes.

Moses will break that tablet before he lets you see it!

@shakeswilly: “The Ten Commandments have redactions ?”

It seems that the “Evangelistic Christians” (and probably several other “denominations”, as well) have “updated” the Ten Commandments_, replacing every occurrence of “Thou shalt not” with "_They shall not".

Well, at least Moses can claim Theological Privilege!

OK…By law the report cannot be released. It protects the innocent as well. Expletives deleted.
