I just thought the boxed penguin simply found a way to survive post-global warming.

Sorry I can't be funny.

The penguin needs cold like regular birds need food. There's not a lot of cold left because the world is rapidly turning into a desert, so instead of having an actual environment, the penguin needs to fly to some man made "cold feeder" to survive.

Anyway, it's a drawing. It's supposed to inspire a cloud of ideas, lighting up parts of the mind and setting off a chain reaction as electricity travels from neuron to neuron along paths reinforced through the years. If it was supposed to have a simple point, it would be a ****ty political cartoon with everything labeled so you'd know the guy was saying "DERP DA DERP [INSERT RICH/POOR/BLACK/BROWN] PEOPLE ARE RUINING AMERICA!".

it's a depiction of the nightly penguin peep show at tom's foolery. the bird house shows how he hides from the wife and kids.

I read somewhere Penguins are actually okay in warm weather.

Their problem is they eat the dirt/sand when they get thirsty because they eat snow for water down in Antarctica.

So they donkey represents a penguin and the missile represents the little piece of wood that fat penguin was standing on and the carrot represents a fish probably, b/c penguins like to eat fish.

Its like religious texts for political cartoons, you can interpret them in whatever way you want!

Its more like the terrorists are just poor dirt farmers in the Afghani hills with weapons that are essentially thrown together, they arent some super threat that is able to level cities.

It obviously means Al Qaeda is poised to attack our food supply.

But you're ignoring the fact that if the Democrats didn't go for their bait, their weapons would be useless.

Its a comment on stuff like the oil for food fiasco. Showing how the carrot part of a carrot and stick approach can backfire and be used against you. It's very neocon really.

So all of those signs are directly related to things that were done by the government.

Why isn't Pennsylvania Avenue being occupied then?

I like what I started with the Penguin in the fridge.
