#1 Addressed in 2-1/2 columns in our SD Union Trib Ombudsman's column this AM. Pretty tasteless. I remember when, even if you didn't agree with Trudeaus lefty slant (and I obviously don't), at least Doonesbury had some humor in it..for the last 15+ yrs, it's been nothing but a Republican bashing screed. Give me Calvin and Hobbes over Boopsie any day

#2 Day by Day -- like Doonesbury, but with a brain and a sense of humor.

#3 Apologies from such people remind me of the adage: "If you spit in one hand and apologize in the other, I know which one will fill up first." But to that I would add that such people, again, then try to shake your hand with the one they've been spitting in.

#10 I don't put too much faith in all this apologizing crap, as it's way too easy for someone who is truly convinced that they are in the right to say that they're sorry simply for the sake of trying to quiet down a furor that they created.

#11 Trudeau is sorry, all right. And he's been sorry for years. I try to avoid his strip.

Day by Day is 1000% better. And smarter.
