Fool You Once
I just love watching people get their Ashcroft panties in a bunch over things they just haven't fact checked.
But hey, Ashcroft is involved, so let's just run with it!
I'm not exactly a fan of the Ash Man, but it sure would be nice to check some sources before you go around sighing and crying about the certain doom of the bill of rights and America as a whole.
As Tony Millionaire so sweetly put it: I find it interesting that fuck you.
Or this: Don't take that tone with me, young man, I'm old enough to be the pimp that got paid for the fuck that made you.
You want to make a difference in this world? Then read Maakies, damn it. And if you don't laugh at this strip, then go read Family Circus, k? Actually, it really would have been funnier with cunt instead of vagina. But then again, isn't everything?

Ah, Michele. My love for you grows stronger every day.

Man, he even put the words 'April Fools' RIGHT THERE IN THE STRIP.

Yeah, even 'snatch' would have been funnier than 'vagina'. Too many syllables.
Just typing that makes me have Big Lebowski flashbacks.

This reminds me of my favorite Dutch expression: the word for that goatee+moustache facial hair combination translates to "talking vagina" in English.

It's starting to get good here, too.

Hilarious.

Odd how the whole thing started because Millionaire blamed the FCC (at third-hand, evidently), and then switched to DOJ, because in theory the papers supposedly suggested that the State AG offices were taking commands from the Federal AG office.
And now the entire TCJ thread appears to be "Blame ASScroft!!!!" ... because three papers got complaints filtered through State AG offices?
It appears very much to me that the knee-jerk "Ashcroft is BADMANS" reaction to anything involving DOJ must be involved. Sure, maybe DOJ had nothing to do with it at all. Sure, Ashcroft himself, even if DOJ was involved, probably never even heard about what would be an amazingly unimportant minor case of sending out a 'please don't do that' message. But it's ASScroft's fault. Because he's bad. And stuff. I hear he believes in JEBUS.
Christ.
(PS. I heart Maakies. And the C-word.)

Tony's better at pushing buttons than a veteran elevator operator! Funny how no one stopped to think that for the story to be true, the department of justice would have to be seeing strips before the editors do!
WELL PLAYED YOU BEAUTIFUL SOUSE!

FWIW, a moustache + goatee is called a "van dyke". Or used to, back in the 19th and 16th century, the last times those things were as popular as now.

I liked vagina because it makes it look like the monkey is being sensitive.

I dunno. It just doesn't seem all that funny to me, with either word.
Because I know one thing, for an absolute fact.
Women NEVER EVER look behind themselves. This is why they get so upset if you leave the seat up.
A joke has to be plausible to be really funny.
There were many tantrums from a 14-year old stepdaughter who considered the Guest bathroom "her" bathroom dispite the two males living there and whoevere else might have visited, I finally threatened to saranwrap the toilet bowl if she didn't start to check her six. :>

"A joke has to be plausible to be really funny."
I'll just throw out my Monty Python DVDs, then.
