Fidel Castro created a country where every adult sounds like a muted trombone.

Or rather as JFK was to Che and Fidel.

Che was as bad at politics as Woodstock is at flying.

Fidel is as believable a soldier as Snoopy is a pilot.

Kennedy's political abilities were as modest as Schultz's artistic ones.

Yet without Kennedy - no Fidel, and without Fidel no Che.

I guess I don't quite get it. I think it should be funny, but I must be missing something here, probably with regard to the Peanuts background info. (I must admit that I don't often read the strip and most of my knowledge of the Peanuts-world comes from the TV specials during Christmas and Halloween. Sorry, Paul.)

It's intellectual waffling about comic books. Be glad you don't "get" it...

Um, when I took the SAT, you needed more information than that to complete a syllogism.

Maybe there's, like, new math or something.

No, I don't get it either, but I'm happy to have an opportunity to say I think it's pretty creepy having Peanuts still in the comics section EIGHT years after Charles Schulz's death...

This is hands-down the most stupid thing anybody has posted on Slog in a very long time. And that includes Mudede, which is saying a lot.

perhaps we're reading into this too much. Charles Schulz created Snoopy. Fidel put Cuba on the map. Simple enuf.
