That's a lot of mean looking snowmen…..lol
now thats a comic i miss
In a tribute/parody to/of the man who lawfully carried an AR-15 to an Ob*ma event, I'd love to see one of these snowmen packing a hair dryer.
One of the kids told me a funny one yesterday.
Drew Brees was recently a guest on the Oprah Winfrey show. Oprah was unaware that Drew has a prominent birth mark on his cheek, and thinking it was some foreign debris, she proceeded to try and rub his face off……………….Hahaha…………
You'd think she would screen her guest a little closer. You know…………… like look at a picture of them or something……………………………….Before she starts to try and permanently alter your physical appearance.
Wow. Just think about the mindset that this seemingly innocuous act represents. Nanny-statist, indeed.
Calvin and Hobbes strip made Sunday mornings something to look forward to. It was fun while it lasted.
oh no, the enviroment is no part of the vast right wing conspiracy…
Soialism still enforced at gun point!
ConfirmedDead.com
Here are more pictures and video of the protest. Most awesome!
http://theblogprof.blogspot.com/2010/02/tea-party...
off topic: anybody watching Fox & Friends on dish net this morning and catch the bowflex commerical in "spanish"…geeze…wonder if it was "dish" or "fox"…either way last thing I wanted to see after getting up and turning on the tv…besides liar liar gibbs on the show…..
Tea party snow goons! I love it! Dems and RINOs, watch out.
EGADS!!! They're all white!
Wiat 'til the MSM gets ahold of this!
Ah, yes, that darned environment and it's unwillingness to bend to mankind's desires and change!
God was having a really good day when Calvin and Hobbes as invented.
And everyone kept telling me my meds needed increased
There they are a photo proof
ALRIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHO TOOK MY TINFOIL HAT?
What's the deal just another Global warming protest, but at least they will get healthcare.
Please remember that when Michigan gets a lot of snow, they don't ask for the U.S. taxpayers to clean it up!!!
Those snowmwn are scary looking.
I sure hope J-Nap and Homeland In-Security are monitoring them for signs of subversion or acts of domestic terrorism.
Yes he was
and the right to vote
We should pull an ACORN, and register these folks to vote.
LOL……..Thx,…..Dav……..Still LMAO,………Good way to start my day.THX again!!!!!!!!
Calvin for President!!
.. or how about a Calvin logo to replace this one:

Let's build more. I think I'll surround my house with them. Whadya think they used for eyebrows?
What/who was the ? Chinese? emperor who surrounded hes tomb with clay soldiers?
PRAY FOR GRIDLOCK, especially today!!!!!!!!
or whatever new and improved name they have now….
They're whiter than MSNBC, but have better personalities.
.
I asked this on yesterday's thread, but I posted too late to get any responses…
Off topic, but it is an open thread so I feel the need to ask: Just what is going on with the Catholic Church on the 9 year old in Brazil getting an abortion? Apparently, she was raped by her stepfather and got pregnant with twins, and the church is excommunicating her family and the abortionist for terminating the pregnancy. What on earth were they thinking!?
That it wasn't the babies' fault the sperm donor is an asshole?
The Dissenter:
Awesome article by school board member in NJ that was the lone dissenter refusing STIMULUS money.
Commentary
The Dissenting Vote
Kenneth E. Hartman
Go away phony trollbch,
Spaceman Spiff for President!!
Your question was probably rhetorical, but encase not, your answer is not: Two wrongs make a right! Lets see,
somebody raped and impregnated a nine year old, so lets murder the offspring and that will fix everything, right?
Wrong! Makes more sense to make the Abuser a slave of her and her family for life! Leaving the Abuser's fate in their hands, not the Governments hands, most of which do not have the good understanding God gave a goose!
The troubling part is, could this 9 yr. old carry to term? Setting one's self up to be an executioner for a non-homicide offense is dangerous ground, even for women-rights activists.
thet have that an ACORN worker signed them up to vote "straight" demo. ticket.
Obama must have been a Calvin and Hobbs fan. He plays politics by the same rules as Calvinball…make 'em up as he goes along.

Is this guy the new Rush?
I adore this protest rally of angry snowmen!
Janet (from another planet) Nepolitano breaks an ankle playing tennis, I'm a little surprised she doesn't poke her own eyes out eating dinner. This lady is a first class Nit-Wit who could not be trusted to watch a hot dog cart for 5 freaken minutes, 5 min. later you would come back and kids would have stolen all the hot dogs, the napkins would be flying down the street, water would be leaking from the cart, there would be sand in the saurkraut and she would have a huge mustard stain on the front of her dress, she may be smart she may be educated but she is a total idiot, buffon, meatball, luftmensch, nit-wit, moron.
Looking for an in depth article called: "A Nut By Any Other Name."
This article should examine the transformation of ACORN as they change names and charters.
Track ACORN employees and identify the new organizations.
More importantly, take apart the financials of the transformation, because I'm sure the name changes are just alegal ploy to reatin eligibility for govm't funding.
Please Andrew, keep the pressure on these people. The light you shine on these crooks should be as relentless as the desert sun.
See, they're right: Tea Partiers are racists! All white snowmen/women.

He is community organizing today – in front of cameras.
Now that brought a smile to my face.
Isn't Ms. Wormwood on the President's staff?
The best cartoonist I've ever known. I've collected and still have all of the books from the early 90's and the hard back collection its too bad Watterson hung'em up.
CAL-v.1N is to appear soon, the child and tiger will surprise you. Or at least you can blame some liberati for destroying it's memory.
You're too late! ACORN has all ready registered them.
Obama plays politics the way he does simply because he can! It's called being politically correct!
Obama must have been a Calvin and Hobbs fan. He plays politics by the same rules as Calvinball…make 'em up as he goes along.
quite possibly the best cartoon EVER. i do not buy cartoon anthologies as a rule, but i do have The Complete C & H.
Damn you RedWhiteAndJew, there went my first cup of coffee AND my keyboard!!!
Thanks for the chuckle, I needed it!!!!
first order of business is to stop importing salt from china
oops.. cant do that
the Chinese own them
they all work at MSNBC
Every time I hear her name, for some reason – Monty Python's video "I am a Lumberjack" pops in my head.
I miss Calvin and Hobbes and The Far Side.
I remember that cartoon where a snowman thief is robbing another snowman and says, "Stick'em up," while using a hairdryer as a weapon.
Priceless!
I hate to think that the most enduring frame is the one that you see constantly where Calvin is urinating on something or other, while looking mad.
My thoughts exactly, Griz. Some folks don't even have to open their mouths to cause others to have preconceived opinions of them. And goodness knows, what that teaches the kids…well, we know what it teaches them.
I always figured that the artist of Calvin and Hobbes might have been pirated – at least certainly misrepresented.
However, deep in the recesses of my mind, I seem to recall a Calvin strip where he was doing that, but it was a totally different situation. Not as malevolent as the stickers – just a little kid being naughty.
I am not sure about this, TR, but I am led to understand that the artist of C&H did NOT draw that frame. The character was adopted by some crude people and made into all these Calvin-pissing [insert target here] stickers. It was given as one reason the strip was eventually closed down.
When I see one of these in the rear window of a pickup or car, it tells me all I need to know about the motorist. They are the same sort of people who would dress their children in a "If you ain't Country, you ain't [excretory reference]".
Real class, that.
