The Ghost of Nixon Complains About Trump

Well, this is certainly the pot calling the kettle a crook, isn’t it? It’s hard not to simultaneously feel like the current constitutional crisis has echoes of the Watergate and Nixon scandals, and also that Nixon’s crimes were quaint. (Hint: they weren’t, but at least in that era there was still some sense that the constitutional checks and balances would keep the country from completely going off the rails.)

Let’s see what the ghost of Nixon thinks about how the current administration is doing.

Can’t ghosts have opinions too?

That bad, huh?

Mehitabel would like to register her protest about given the least sympathetic role in this adventure.

We would like to note the early appearances (in supporting roles) of Pinky and the Meihems.

We now return to our previously paused feature presentation…

…Pinky in Wonderland! And I bet you were wondering when we’d get back to this, weren’t you? Never fear! We promise we will wrap this up by…um…the end of the year, but you know there have been SO many distractions of late! I do so hate watching the fall of Democracy and the end to Justice for All, you know? It is SOOOOO distracting!

Shall we re-cap our story thus far?

Pinky in Wonderland Episode 1
Pinky in Wonderland Episode 2
Pinky in Wonderland Episode 3
Pinky in Wonderland Episode 4
Pinky in Wonderland Episode 5
Heck…you can find the rest of them yourself.

I’ve always hated when movies do this…

Tune in on Wednesday for the next episode! We will evade reality one way or another!

Panda On!

PS: Don’t forget to check your voter registration and VOTE in November! 

Well this is a fine kettle of fish…

Oh dear. Why did I think that a bunch of rich, white, male Senators would give any credence to what a woman had to say. Sorry to ruin your Friday morning, but if you thought the Senate Judiciary Committee (run by the Repugnant Republicans) was going to…oh, I don’t know…call for a full investigation to either prove or disprove the allegations against the Supreme Court nominee, but oh noOOOOOO. We can’t have that. We might have to believe the women and we know that is just not going to happen.

So, I realize I have too choices here. I could search for all the darkest ‘toons, and sink into the pit of despair (taking all of you with me for company) or…I could search for the pandiest ‘toons that bring us joy. Because we need it, I need it. The world needs it.

Pandas will always #RESIST

Huzzah! Bring pandas to Washington State!

Panda Satire Made Easy

Panda satire explained for you!

I'm not a doctor but I play one on television

Bob, Bob, Bob…when will you ever learn?

Never say “no” to Pinky!

Mei puts her paw down…

Mr Bun has a question, daddee.

Really, Pinky….It’s not nice to tease your little brother.

Nooooo! Not the PINK crayon! and yes, there really is a Panda Chronicles Coloring Book.

What goes around, comes around…

And because this may be my favorite ‘toon ever….

See? I told you it was broken!

Well, I hope this extra helping of pandas being silly has helped you deal with the news of the day, but we have have work to do. Call your Senators, tell them what you think, and remind them that you are paying attention, and that you VOTE.

And then in November, please please please VOTE

Pandas and people are counting on you.

…The Lions Eat Tonight…

In all the crazy chaos in the country, hurricanes, WH aides getting trampled in the rush to throw someone, anyone under the bus, (as long as it’s not them), what might make us happy is a heartwarming story about adorable kitty cats!

This IS about adorable kitty cats, isn’t it?

“We just want to talk!”

Well, SOME people might find this story heartwarming.

Panda On!

What is Friday if it’s not Fabulously Furry?

Indeed! We need Fabulous! We need Furry! we need a distraction from the Bread and Circus extravaganza taking place in the other Washington! Reading my ‘toons of the last few years as I look for pertinently prognosticating and prescient ‘toons to share with you, I am amazed anew about how what seemed absurd 2 + years ago (Pinky declaring war on Canada) is hardly funny now that it is not our of the realm of possibility, under the tiny paws of Mittens.

What is this country coming to? What can save us? How did we get here?

Panda satire, that’s the answer to everything!

Pinky never misses a trick!

That Pinky is too clever for her own good!

What’s that blinking red light over there?

Mittens Diplomacy

Remember when Mittens went to the G7 meeting and wowed all our nation’s allies with his wisdom and willingness to work together for the good of democracy?

Yeah…me neither.

And then when he went on to England and charmed the Queen with his impeccable manners and deep knowledge of Royal Protocol?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Yep, that old Mittens…he’s SUCH a charmer!

PANDA ON!
Bob T Panda

The only thing that would make Friday more Fabulous…

…would be the impeachment of Mittens. Sigh… That is too much to hope for this early in the game, but that train is coming round the bend and it’s picking up steam!

Meanwhile, I hear panda videos are very relaxing….

Pinky is just so sensitive….

Oh, Mr. Bun! Where have you been?

Did Unka Justin write this letter?

What happens at the debate, states at the debate…

Uh oh. Is Bubba about to rat someone out?

Remember when we still had hope all would turn out well?

Whoever could it be, to see Pinky in her lair?

Oh Bubba! What were you thinking?

Just what kind of deal is Pinky making?

Biggest scandal since Watergate? Hold my beer….

Um…I had some fluff in my eyes….

Do you suppose the Zoo will hold another referendum on PHEXIT?

Oh those red pandas! They are such characters!

Just when Mei thought everything would calm down….

Panda on! It’s Fabulous Furry Friday!
