Amazing Disney Comics references in WEEKLY STANDARD parody piece!

[Chuck Munson]

Dana,

Don't you mean "true red conservative"?  Uh wait, no, that doesn't sound right!  Makes it sound like a communist conservative - but that's hard-line.  Huh???  Oh boy, my little stars and disappointing comets, I'm soooo confused.  Chris, as our resident conservative, can you please explain this conundrum to me/us????

No wonder i can't figure politics out!

Cheers and happy Thanksgiving - and remember that in spite of anything else - politically, financially, globally - we all have our loved ones and one another and that right there is a whole lot to be thankful for.

Chuck (and Becky and Kathryn)
