Today Tinsley/Mallard imagines
Jesse Helms disguised as a woman

Today Mr. Tinsley gives his drawing pen a rest and has a cartoon with NO CHARACTERS AT ALL. Instead, he just writes some dialog across the front of a portico building that might be the Whitehouse.   The dialog has Hillary discovering someone under the President's desk.   She is so deluded by the "diabolical right-wingers" that she sees the naked woman as Jesse Helms in disguise.

Tinsley has quite an imagination because I cannot even fathom a disguise so "clever" that I could look upon a naked Senator Helms without puking my guts out.   Even the creators of Star Trek never suggested a cloaking system that could make a troll like that look appealing.

Of course the real intent of today's 'toon is to paint Hillary as confused enough to think that a woman hiding under the President's desk in a compromising way was actually a Republican stooge. This cartoon comes on the day after Senate majority leader Trent Lott called upon Ken Starr to essentially "put-up or shut-up" and said that the special prosecutor should wrap up and turn his findings over to the Congress. (Conversely, Newt Gingrich said that Starr should take as much time as he likes.)

Now THAT doesn't seem like much of a conspiracy does it? Of course not, Hillary hasn't accused the republican head of the House and Senate of orchestrating this.   Those guys wouldn't get their hands by trying to get someone to "wear a wire" and go under-cover to entrap the President. They don't need to, what with Linda Tripp and her former-political-spy-turned-publisher friend.   I bring this up because *IF* Starr ever does end his vendetta, you will see the "pay-off" as a prosecutor (paid a fortune by the American taxpayers) receives a special bonus from (as Tinsley calls them) "right-wingers" and takes a special job at Pepperdine (created especially for Starr by a rich Clinton-hater).

The other interesting idea that Tinsley's cartoon raises... would Jesse Helms get naked under the President's desk to further his political agenda?   As gross as that concept is, I can't help wondering if Tinsley might be on to somthing....

Dan, why are you picking on this dim-witted duck anyway?
