Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for March 31, 2011

Maybe the “President” has met his match…

I think it’s time for a little facts-of-life lesson (as opposed to talk) here.

Put him to work shoveling cow dung until he works off his debt to Duke. Or something along those lines. Dictators excel in that type of work, don’tcha know? grin

Who knew Duke could be so mean? I did! I did!

Just call in your Mafia connections. Then watch out for Overkill.

Duke may still need him to somehow get at those frozen/hidden assets for the 50 Mil.

I’m somewhat surprised – I didn’t think that ex-Prez Trff Bmzklfrpz would be THIS divorced from reality. Trff doesn’t have bargaining power anymore and everyone else, including Duke, knows it. (I’d love to see Bmzklfrpz’s entry visa into the country.) I just hope GT doesn’t start jumping the shark by having Bmzklfrpz beginning to work with Zonker Harris in that restaurant. Too predictable.

“President-For-Life”? More like “King of De-Nial”…

Duke’s home just isn’t big enough for both their egos. It’s too bad the Red Rascal is not there to bring peace to this war.

Yep, the prez is definitely living in a really huge bubble. He seems to have lost sight of the fact that the sovereign state of which he is “President for Life” is several thousand miles away. He is merely a former dictator in his present circumstances.

As for Duke. Forget the Hague. Just call ICE. Let them put him on ice until they can deport him back to his loving subjects. (Yeah! Right!)

Ballplayers well past their primes have similar delusions.

Duke is hosting a neo-con? Gov Snyder?

Take him on a sight-seeing trip to Nevada. Lots of nice, deep abandoned mines there. He’ll never be found.

Grissom would get him, Rodney. Better pick a safer dumping ground.

I think the hardest-core dictators actually ARE afraid of the Hague. If they know in their black hearts that they ARE war criminals, they will not leave. I’m sure that’s in the back of Mallomar [throat-clearing noise]-Daffy’s shriveled brain right now.

Duke will probably wind up selling him to the rebels back in Berzerkistan so he can pay Overkill.

Given that the US does not recognise the International Criminal Court, and would not extradite the president for life, it’s rather an empty threat

If you’re going to invite all Americans who attacked foreign countries that did not attack us and killed innocent civilians in the process, be sure to invite Obama and Biden to your little necktie party.

In fact, since they obviously knew that it was so wrong in light of their criticsm of previous administrations who did so, they should be first in line.

Speaking of Duke’s son, is he really Duke’s biological offspring or did he come some other way? I must have missed some earlier episode where the son entered the picture. I can’t imagine Duke having a significant other, other than his former Chinese assistant.

Earl arrived in Duke’s life as an adolescent, the son of a Vegas stripper and a Duke who was just passing through.

Arye Urgur, Yes Earl is Duke’s biological son. Duke ran an orphanage, and Earl was placed there. Honey arranged for the DNA tests and Father and Son had a joyous re-union! Enjoy http://www.gocomics.com/doonesbury/1995/04/12/

The UN should take the frozen assets & pay the cost of enforcing the no fly zone. In the ‘toon & in Libya.

I wonder if Trff had hired Saddam’s minister of information.

I was doing alright with the forum, until aircraft-engineer left an image I can’t get out of my mind.

Thanks, Diggit and Mike 31g for your info, especially the strips from ‘95. Apparently, that was a time that I wasn’t tuning in to Doonesbury. Now I have everything in perspective. - Arye Uygur

So Trff is familiar with the taste of donkey dung…
