Chicago Tribune, three other papers ban comic about President

politics — by TDavid @ 11:41 am PST



Cell phone afficiando, Yahoo! employee, and sometimes brash blogger, Russell Beattie thinks all bloggers should repost the comic that the Chicago Tribune decided to ban that makes light of President Bush and the recent tapes where he admitted smoking pot. Hmm, Russell, I screencapped your post instead. Seems like encouraging bloggers to violate somebody elses’s copyright (the comic creator and syndicate that purchased the comic) isn’t very sound advice.

As for the content of the comic and the fact that the Tribune and a few other papers would choose not to run it?

C’mon people! Why does anybody really care if Bush smoked pot or did coke before he became President? I’m more concerned about the job Presidents do in the White House than the blow jobs they might be currently getting (which IMO Hilary had to know about slick Willy) or the powder they sniffed or bowl they tapped in college. I don’t like getting political on this blog and just as Russell should stick to Yahoo and cell phones I should stick to non-political topics, but I looked at this comics and thought:

1) it’s not that funny (although I think that about most comics) and
2) I didn’t see the big deal. How about a comic depicting Bush in a bed next to an oil pump?

Then again, maybe I’m just a bitter guy who thinks paying $2.38/gallon for gas is a sham.

Did this post make you go hmm?
