Would the "character" really make that kind of statement? A good cartoon has imagery and dialog that does not talk down to or insult the reader's intelligence. Too bad all this crap is on your wall as wallpaper.

If everyone in the country was unemployed and 5 million Americans had died from the virus, and homelessness was at a record high, your thimble-like brain would think it was a booming economy.https://www.npr.org/sections/coronavirus-live-updates/2020/07/30/896714437/3-months-of-hell-u-s-economys-worst-quarter-ever I know you won't understand it, but what the hell.Worst quarter ever equals a booming economy.

Well I thought the question is in reference to POTUS and his great leadership, so I would think you would take into account his entire term and whether or not he has the ability to move us forward out of the mess that the democrats have created.

Doc Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 1 hour ago, SectionC3 said: It is. It’s a racist canard. It fans bigotry, prejudice, and fear. If you decide to use it, that’s on you. It’s disappointing that you’re not better than that. It's neither racist nor a canard. It's a shot at a corrupt government who lied to the world and allowed a virus to spread while stockpiling PPE and using their mouthpiece the WHO to help them all along the way. It's opened the eyes of the world to both of them and their day of reckoning is coming. Race has nothing to do with it and I'd have called out France or England or Germany if they had acted in the same way. 1

Rob's House Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 When I was a kid my brother and I started a lemonade stand with the kids next door. I wanted to be the boss so we took a vote, but the idiots picked my brother, which was a huge mistake. I wasn't about to let his oppressive management destroy the business so I resisted. In protest, I pissed in the lemonade, screamed at the customers, and burned down the lemonade stand. Needless to say, my brother's tenure was an absolute failure. 2 1 2

Wacka Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 Wonder what these flus have names like Wuhan, Hong Kong, etc? They are named for where they first are spotted. Most originate in Asia. They can infect pigs and fowl also. In china there are a lot of farmers with small farms that have people, pigs, and fowl in close proximity. The viruses naturally recombine and can jump species.
