Beef would totally rock as FCC chair. But I think it would take time to get used to VP Emeril.

Actually, this sort of thing has been done to death.  Hey Phillipe, Marmaduke is on the phone, he wants to speak with you.

Yeah, but they're no age restrictions on RUNNING for president.

"They point out that the U.S. Constitution specifically forbids those under the age of 35 from holding the Office of the President. To them I say this: an unelectable candidate is an unimpeachable candidate."

Up until the last batch of cheap crap I'm pretty sure Onstad didn't generate strips *just* to be commercials for new products.  And even the Philippe as a bee shirt could have seemed like a good idea *after* running the strip.

So if he *does* offer "Philippe For President" stuff, well, he'll lose a little artistic integrity.  Because it's so obvious.

Now, if he were to make millions selling his beads and trinkets, it'd be worth it - but to "sell out" for a few hundred bucks just seems so... soulless.

Anyway, time will tell.

Garry Trudeau got a hernia laughing this morning. At Onstad, not Achewood.

Damn politics seeps into everything good and taints it with a spot that won't come out.  There is a specific talent for good political humor and satire. I hope we see some of that. If it's strictly commercial I will be sad.

However, if it's "Strictly Commercial: The Best of Frank Zappa," I, for one, will be happy.

I'm just glad to see Mr. Bear again, personally. But am I the only one who found Philippe a little... well, off-model-looking?

Another point which occurs to me: why does Mr. Bear care about the human president? He's a stuffed bear. He's not even an American citizen! Will the Underground suffer if Bush gets reelected or something?

As for commercialism... if he puts out Philippe for President stuff, I'm not buying. This is all.
