A black bourgeoisie perspective on U.S. politics
Just caught word that fellow rabble rouser Aaron McGruder may be done with his daily strip. As you may know, he took a six month sabbatical, but it looks like he’s sorta kinda not trying to come back.
What had happen was… he saw some of that big time TV and Hollywood money.
Wonkette is in a haterish mood, revealing a complete lack of comedic taste:
In any case, the demise of McGruder’s strip means that the standard newspaper funny page has lost yet another comic strip that wasn’t funny. Newspaper executives promise all the other not-funny comic strips will remain until you die and your neighbors finally cancel your paper.
Go for the gold, soldier, and keep the message strong.
And people, no Dave Chappelle “crazy in Africa” references. That’s just ignorant.
