Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for August 13, 2011

The nation that did most of the trembling was his own.

Trff’s arrogance reminds me of the HUMILITY of Oscar-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow (I absolutely LOVE this gorgeous woman). When asked by some paparazzi-generated gossip sheet reporter what her all-time “fave” restaurant was (NY, LA, Paris, London, name it but think in terms of thousands of dollars per meal), she coyly admitted, Some of the taco trucks around here.

@Dylan, thank you for giving Pepper Potts her due. And INS official, thank you for not taking Trff too seriously.

We used to have a great roach coach that parked along the road on my way to work, and sold the best breakfast burritos ever. Or would that be a (coche de cucarachas?) I sure do miss it. I might welcome Trff to the neighborhood if he could duplicate their green chile.

To put this in some kind of non-insane perspective, think of just one 12-year-old child that a dozen of Trff’s troops raped and murdered, deliberately in front of her parents and siblings. Just one out of probably thousands. And yes, WITH Trff’s knowledge and full approval. Think of just one. Then ask yourself, Why didn’t “The Dukester” — before she was “disappeared” — rescue HER and set HER up with a green card, adopted parents, a school, etc.? Think! Ask why . . . . Then you’ll understand what Trudeau is all about. Not to mention what Cheney was all about. In fact, the entire (unrepentant) neocon agenda.

To understand what Rayannina is talking about, in case you don’t know, go to .http://thewritersideoflife.wordpress.com/2010/05/20/sexy-science/.and use your computer’s search function to search for either “Paltrow” or “Pepper”..Here’s a quote from that website: .“[T]he best scenes and I have to say some of the best acting came from Ms Paltrow. The relationship between Stark and Pepper Pots is brilliantly funny. Their chemistry and dialogue is witty and entertaining and she plays the part wonderfully.”

Re: “INS official, thank you for not taking Trff too seriously.”.Let’s not forget that Mr. INS official Sir is corrupt as spam, and Mr. Excellency Trff Sir hails from a small, unimportant-to-neocon-interests “Stan”, not, say, Communist China or Communist North Korea. If CIA had extracted, say, Mr. Kim il Jung Sir, then Mr. INS official Sir would probably be relieving himself inappropriately. .Just as Mr. Dukester Sir will when he hears the dreaded words, “Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere’s Joanie!” (master of facts-on-file, heh heh)..This is just my predictive opinion run wild, of course. But I’m a hopeless prediction gambler. And I like to have this kind of fun. So apply Rayannina’s advice to me, and don’t take me too seriously.

NEXT!

Why doesn’t Gwyneth get more roles? Well, if she surgeried herself into a pair of double Dees, not only would she probably get a ton of offers straight out of the woodwork, but Angelina and Jennifer might have to retire. Well, maybe not Angelina (slinging along Brad as well as her own Oscar), but Jennifer . . . .

In propagandizing for those who rule by apartheid, GT picks what he thinks are easy targets. But this fellow looks Turkic, and many of those who rule by apartheid are descended from Turkic tribes. That’s one reason for the love-hate relation between Turkey and the land of apartheid. What’s more, this fellow sounds arrogant, just as the governmental leader of the apartheidists does.

He wants to be reinstated in Berzerkistan. But if he were to be, then they’d probably hang him upside down like the Italians did to Il Duce “the Boss” Mussolini. But Il Duce (pronounced Ill DOO-che), his bod was dead by then..The Berzerkistanis might hang Trff upside down live and poke thousands of holes into him with their pitchforks. Of course he doesn’t understand this. Remember Khadaffy Duck saying, “My people LOVE me!”? He’s probably still saying it..One question still dogs me, though. Why is “Il Duke-ster” going to all this trouble? For $$$$$, of course. But then, why is Overkill? Or whoever is the ultimate decision-maker, who is shelling out all the taxpayer-generated lucre to pay off people like Mr. INS Man Sir? Under GWB it would have been “the decider”. Remember him saying, “I’m the decider!”? So, who’s “the decider” in this case?

Trff doesn’t seem to realize that trembling is often a side effect of uncontrollable laughter.

How the “mighty” have fallen.

give me your indolent, your rich, your former criminals yearning to breathe free….the wretched refuse of the killing fields….send these, the homeless, limo-smoothed to me….I lift my lamp (with implants) by the sea…….the polluted sea.

Too bad we couldn’t have gotten Quadaffi out this way…imagine how many would still be alive. I’d gladly have one “dear leader” or another serving tasty tacos down the street. Hmmm……maybe that’s an idea for a chain (train…convoy..fleet?) of food trucks….“Dear leader tacos” Has a nice ring to it….

gwyneth paltrow “coy”?

@dtpi, to quote Tomielm: “It’s so nice to see someone our age with such passion and clarity of thought. I enjoy reading your posts, regarding them as a delectable “side dish” to Trudeau’s “main course.” Thank you for being!” I was just thinking that, as I read your comments, and I couldn’t have said it better.

I like how the character of the INS clerk has been written. He’s such a cheery fellow – never quite hearing what Trff or probably any other ‘refugee’ or immigrant is saying. I have run across people like that.

Now the thought of commanding nothing more than a taco cart is making him tremble…

Weeell, okay, not dates, but maybe poppy seeds?

Can’t you just hear the jolly clerk’s unctuous voice dripping with smiley boredom. “Musta been AWESOME.”
