Merry (Lame Duck) Christmas
More iPhone art, new techniques. (You know, you can start with something called a “pencil”–works pretty well.)
I’m not sure the allegory is correct, as I started this just drawing elephant and donkey because I like drawing elephants and donkeys. The implications were then pointed out to me, so added the duck.
Merry enough!
Certain leading Republicans, such as Lindsay Graham, have now announced a suddenly unbending hostility to the New Start treaty between the U.S. and Russia. The treaty would resume on-site inspections of nuclear missile sites (lapsed last year) and pare down nuclear missile heads and launchers; the provisions are aimed at keeping track of these weapons, attempting to avoid their loss or transfer to third parties (i.e. terrorists.)
Some complain of certain verification provisions. (This could be a legitimate issue for longterm treaty naysayers.) But the newer complaints focus on non-binding language in the treaty’s preamble.
The weapons the Republicans seem truly worried about are their own political salvos: Hey, I thought we torpedoed this President.
And btw since when didn’t you realize a nation with gay soldiers practically deserves to face nuclear weapons?)
And p.s. how dare Obama take credit for tax cuts?
Filibustering majority positions is a-okay, but making congressmen work into December? Through their full terms of service?!
Nuclear proliferation be damned!
(One wants to remind them that Russia can almost be seen from Alaska. Better think again.)
