Democrats Love 'The West Wing' (Cartoon)
U Comics ^

Posted on 11/19/2002 1:33:01 PM PST by GulliverSwift



TOPICS: Political Humor/Cartoons
KEYWORDS: demoncrats; donkeys; jackasses; westwing
I love this pic. It's so true. In the liberal hollywood world, the protanist politician in movies is always a democrat, whereas the antagonist is always the Republican.

And that's probably why political movies don't do that well. The cable show ratins demonstrate that more conservatives think about politics for its own sake than liberals do, who are busy shooting up on coffee at Starbucks.

Despite that, hollyweird makes movies with politicians conservatives can't stand.

And like the mid-term elections for Democrats, isn't the "West Wing's" ratings going down the drain, this year?

That's not a she-donkey, that's an androgenous donkey-- in other words, a female liberal.

Actually, if you look a little closer, I think you'll see that "she-donkey" is George Stephanopoulos.

;-D

The more they bury themselves in the non-reality of television, the less we have to worry about them.

Yeah they're down. I guess it's starting to sink in with people.

As it showed during the election, the more places Bill Clinton went, the worse that candidate did.

People see Bush doing his job, and they see the whining softy doing his job on the West Wing. The latter kinds of reminds them of XXlinton.

< "LOL, that weeping little she-donkey is just the best!"

It's also an accurate portrayal of the effeminate limp-noodled she-men that occupy the Democratic Party. [note the weeping donkey is wearing a tie... lesbo or she-man?]

George Stephani-opolis wore those kinds of pants on This Week once, I think.

I think it is apparent that what you are seeing is a standard, in-touch-with-his-feelings girlymon, who has the arrested emotional development of a seven year old child.

Well, I'm convinced that this show was conceived in the first place to create for the sheeple, and especially for the RAT faithfull, the illusion that all was well at the White House, and that the POTUS was a noble, saintly man and not some halfwitted, smooth talking hillbilly exhibiting an advanced case of satyriasis. I believe the conceit worked, if only because the relationship most people have with the POTUS persona is via television, that is a relationship with a more or less manipulated image, which could very well be fictionalized.

CONCLUSION TO ABOVE:

One way or another (the real POTUS or Martin Sheen), the television image is never real, and the show created for its audience a perfect mental substitute for a rather unpleasant reality. Turn off the news, watch President Bartlett, and go to bed thinking everything is copacetic in the country.

After the show, they probably have web tv and they go straight to the DU site.
