Sophomoric sophistry, dimwitted doodling, or asinine asshattery?
Amazing Similarities by Slate.com's Darrel CagleYou decide, then try your own hand at this form of ignoble equivalency. If Cagle spent more than ten minutes researching and drawing this scrawl, he is either mentally retarded or drunk or possibly both. Our time limit is therefore 5 minutes: Amazing Similarities between..... John Kerry and Saddam Hussein: Both have French-speaking wives Both are well-liked in Europe Both are enemies of GW Bush Both have praised European economic models. Both have been photographed in green fatigues Both opposed the Vietnam War Both have given speeches about alleged American war crimes Neither will admit to having met Osama bin Laden Both claim religious beliefs but avoid public displays of piety. Both have been targeted by hostile artillery. Both would be President of their respective countries in 2005 if prominent lefties had their way. or Darrel Cagle (Slate cartoonist) and Julius Streicher (Nazi propagandist hanged for inciting genocide)----- Cagle, like Streicher: relies on crude caricature to make his points. opposes a war against Jew-haters. is not a Republican. has been published in two-bit weeklies. habitually uses facetious half-truths. would be applauded in Arab countries accuses his enemies of plutocratic conspiracies. favors pen and ink over other media finds the Kennedy family favorable to his viewpoint (Joe in the 30s, Ted today) makes demonizing comparisons (well, ok, maybe that one's not so bad) Posted by: Atomic Conspiracy 2004-08-07 |
