Cartoon time: Gordon Brown and the Blueshirts

Hey all you boys and girls, here’s your cartoon of the day!

Dramatis Personae:

Ren (the “penetrator”) = Beijing’s Blueshirt Olympic Torch Thugs

Stimpy (the “penetrated”) = Prime Minister Gordon Brown

I guess Gordon Brown just isn’t into Zhang Ziyi.

 

It’s Not Just About Tibet.

From today’s Daily Mirror (UK):

 

The tracksuited Chinese security men guarding the Olympic torch are highly-trained killers from crack military special forces units, the Daily Mirror can reveal….

 

Thirteen Chinese security men surrounded the torch as it was carried through London and wrestled with one protester as he tried to grab it from TV presenter Konnie Huq.

 

Konnie said: “The men in blue perplexed everyone.  Nobody seemed to know who they were.  They were very robotic, full-on, and I noticed them having skirmishes with our own police and the Olympic authorities.
