Flugennock's Latest'n'Greatest: "Barbie Anchorbabe presents 'The BarbWire'"

From DC's anarchist cartoonist, Mike Flugennock:

"Barbie Anchorbabe Presents: The BarbWire"
http://sinkers.org/stage/?p=3618

Those of you who know me well enough have heard me often joke about my 
now-customary Daily Accidental Random 15 Seconds Of MSNBC. For the 
past two weeks or so, it's been the Donald Trump Indictment Show 
almost 24/7, to the exclusion of everything else going on in the world 
— uprising in France, poisoned air and water in Ohio and Indiana, 
Pentagon leaks exposing Amerika's ugly naked ass over its action in 
Ukraine, you name it.

One morning about a week or so back, for the entire 15 seconds it took 
me to bring in Mrs. F's coffee and Washington Post to the master 
bedroom, the babbling anchorbabe creaming her panties over the Trump 
indictment must've burbled the word "democracy" at least a dozen 
times. Normally, I'd suggest a drinking game, but I wouldn't want to 
be responsible for anyone ending up in the ER after trying to throw 
back a shot every time some talking Barbie doll queefed out the word 
"democracy" on MSNBC.

The really hysterical thing is that — as per usual in this goddamn 
town — the Pushing Wing of the Party is more than willing to instigate 
the arrest and trial of a former guy — uhh, former President who leads 
the Shoving Wing of the Party, but not for any actual crimes against 
the People, as the leaders of the Pushing Wing of the Party are 
entirely complicit and would expose themselves. So, a cheap-ass sex 
scandal it is — again.

And what especially sucks is that the sonofabitch will never, ever see 
the inside of a prison cell for any crime ever, because the Democrats 
need him to run against. Hell, why provide a viable progressive 
alternative when you can just make up an enemy to jerk the Left back 
into line, amirite? LBJ never went to trial for any crimes, or Nixon, 
or Reagan, or Clinton — hell, George W. Bush not only never stood 
trial for his crimes, he got a goddamn one-man show at the Kennedy 
Center. Bah, fuck art.
