    The same idiots also claim to be “pure White” as if they were there everytime their people before them had sex. There is no one that came to this country centuries ago that is pure anything. We are all mutts!

    Philbert…that’s Herger, the terroist general, in the Indian’s right hand.

    What a turkey this man turned out to be.

    Nice job, Phil! I was at the rally this morning at Congressman’s Herger’s office - I was amazed at the self proclaimed “terrorists” who showed up! Most had bibles and were shouting scripture while at the same time calling our President by names that I don’t care to repeat. Mr. Stead was there on his knees trying to persuade everyone to see things his way. I got some great pics and I’m hoping that anewscafe will be able to use them on this website.

    I’m with Spaman & theDancer —- make some tshirts!

    I’ll take a tee shirt also. What a terrific depiction of how silly we sometimes are…with Lil’ Wally leading the parade.

    The USS Herger is running aground, just like in your sketch Phil…locals in Redding and Chico are planning on keeping up the heat until he resigns. He won’t apologize as that would be tantamount to a resignation of sorts. So, he simply has to be shamed out of office. I urge folks to email Nancy Pelosi and ask her to either sanction him for his un-American remarks, remove him from his committees, or simply move his office to the basement of the House Cannon Bldg. She has the privilege to do all three. Call his office in Redding, Chico or DC and request his resignation.

    I sent this cartoon to everyone I know, and got a lot of positive response, even from those who didn’t know this character was real.

    What disturbs me is the cheers Stead got from the crowd. Surprising how many people hold the adolescent view that bad things happen only to other people. How can we hold in contempt people who need a handout when we might need one ourselves one day?

    Phil -

    Thanks for a great representation of reality.

    I think what that proud “right winger” may bave been talking about was what the Native Americans got in return for their kindness.

    As the Public Affairs Officer and member of the Board of Directors for the Northern California Hispanic Latino Coalition, I worked very hard for six years toward helping realize multilateral inclusion. and productivity.

    That wonderful organization is a real treasure of the Northstate. They peacefully and proactively support putting the knowledge of tolerance into healthy action… for ALL. I think Mr. Herger and Mr. Stead could work side by side with the majority of their fellow ‘colonists’ if they could just open their minds more and resist the temptation of a sense of belonging to groups that propagandize, spin, separate, belittle and hate.

    Here’s one for you and the good readers of ANewsCafe - it came to me from a truly good and great American…

    I teach - and model - to my daughters, there is never a “right-way” to do a wrong thing. Ladies and gentlemen: our children are watching us all…
    ESPECIALLY we parents and those elected leaders who are mandated to a higher standard.

    (GREAT job Phil! You are ever my hero: Count me in for that tee-shirt too!!)

    Thanks, Alan, for the great link.
    And to all the other “newscafers” who are modeling “all inclusive” American patriotism to the children in our community…keep up the good work!

    Hmmm, Phil are you studying the old classics. Seen a pic very similar to that concept along time ago.

    Wow, that’s eerie… only difference is that one is drawn better and is intrinsically funnier. Wish I had seen it, I would of stolen it directly and saved myself some work (Pssst… Please don’t show this to Kelly or Doni, they think I come up with all this stuff. What a racket, huh?)

    Wow, Ryan, you’ve really got a lot of time on your hands. Maybe you should spend it a bit more ‘creatively’?

    Wow, what a cowinkydink. We were just talking about making all those old Flying Penguins available again through the internet. So, maybe you won’t have to rummage through all that stuff in the garage after all! Keep an eye out.

    Phil, That was a great cartoon! I can’t believe grownups really act that way. So destructive! Yhose tee shirts should really sell — or maybe not. Just maybe it’s more of the same.
