I never did like the cartoon.
Voted : Oy Vey...Hiccup!!!
Yep, appears to be a hiccupocrite!
Once again, it's "do as I say, not as I do."
Here's Tinsley mocking Teddy Kennedy for his drinking.
This Tinsley cartoon was printed just as news of Tinsley's second arrest for being drunk hit the papers. Interesting coincidence.
Voted : Tinsley didn't drown anyone and wait a day to call cops like Teddy did.
The main problem with "Mallard Fillmore" would be that it simply isn't very funny. "South Park" is Libertarian in stance, much more offensive, and is often hilarious (or has been in the past). Frankly, I couldn't give a tinker's damn if Tinsley has been arrested for drunk driving, but I don't think the issue is whether or not he's a hypocrite but rather the sheer laziness of yelling, "Hey, Ted Kennedy's a fat alky!" in a strip and thinking that it's clever humor. On the other hand, I also think "The Boondocks," obviously on the other side politically is an unfunny steaming pile of shit, so there's plenty of bad cartooning to spare on the funny pages these days. ...And, when for that matter has "Doonesberry" been anything more than a sanctimonious, smirking bore of a strip?
I had never heard of Mallard Fillmore before, so I read some online. Man, is that strip not funny. Tinsley has some anger and bitterness issues. I'm on the fence about Boondocks. Sometimes I like it; sometimes I don't. I can't tolerate Doonesbury. Smug is right. Condescending yuppie shite. I haven't read it in a long time.
