Mallard Fillmore Scribe DUI

Edward Bruce Tinsley, the creator of conservative-duck comic strip Mallard Fillmore, was arrested on DUI charges. What do you think?

As a longtime Fillmore fan, I have to ask myself, what would a reactionary duck have to say about this?

Is that a pun on our thirteenth president Millard Fillmore? I just got that, just now.

This is so typical of the liberal media. Tinsley has a couple drinks and it's all over the news, but Cathy Guisewite gets all whacked out on PCP and punches a cop and you barely hear a thing about it.
