Iran Ratchets Up Cartoon War

As if things were not heated enough, the stakes in the ongoing “cartoon conflict” have now exploded to a fever pitch with Iran’s recent decision to rename the dog breed “Great Dane” to “Jesus’s Marmaduke Momma”.   

This move comes on the heels of that same country’s renaming of “danishes” to “Mohammaden pastries”, and is expected by many experts to have roughly the same impact on world opinion as the new David Hasselhof video.

Although Iran is receiving a good deal of attention for these current changes, they have a long history of redubbing various items to suit their philosophical goals.

Some of these past changes include:

  • “camel excrement” to “Jew biscuits”
  • “herpes” to “Gallic love tumors”
  • “Coca-Cola” to “Satan’s Bile”
  • Jimmy Carter” to “Allah’s Favorite Son”

   

In other news, Senators John McCain and Barack Obama have agreed to a truce following an exchange of uncomplimentary letters between the two men. McCain noted that the bickering was “silly” and went on to say “particularly in times like this, we Democrats have to stick together.”

    Y’know, I thought I wouldn’t like Hasselhof’s video; I thought it would be hokey. But I actually like it!

    I must be part German, because he hooked me on a feeling too Kitty.

    Hasselhof is the William Shatner of his generation.

    Yuck, you said Hasselhof!

    And DH is not the Shatner of his generation. Shatner can still get on American TV.
