Marlette Manipulation 6.0: Reptilicus Ridiculous....



Andy Marlette from the PNJ has a cartoon out today that I believe is based upon a story from last week where a snake was rescued at Pensacola Beach.  Initially, it could not be identified.  Eventually, it was identified as a rattlesnake.

So today, he published a cartoon with a play on that story and I was featured on it as well, with some unflattering descriptions. Within one week's time, I'm lampooned as two separate animals.

I'm just trying to cut through the BS and get a public beach access opened, and for that I'm featured in a cartoon?!?

  I think there are better ways to do this cartoon if we want to talk about snakes, so I went ahead and re-did his cartoon to make it much more apropos.

Who can identify the real beach snakes of Escambia County?

You must be triggering the very liberal PNJ and Andy. 2 cartoons, which were not funny until you manipulated them. The snake analogy make zero sense to me. There are some on the county commission who have no backbone, but that's not you. Your manipulation is great. Reptiilicus ridiculous fakenewsicus.

I just noticed your latest manipulation. Very, very good. Andy Marlette as a yellow bellied blue (Democrat) rat snake. It’s so true. I remember when newsmen weren’t the story, but now they are the story and that’s the way they want it. The press used to be a neutral counterbalance to the government. This is no longer true. Marlette, everyone one at the PNJ and 98% of the media are left democrats. Some like Marlette are very left socialists. It must be tough on Marlette to live in such a conservative place. He should transfer to Tallahassee where he can be with his other pie in the sky white privileged liberals who can loathe their own existence. I just want all these journalists, all the libs and the 1 conservative, to state a disclaimer when they write any story or editorial letting the people know their bias. For example, I’m Marlette, I am a registered Democrat. I have never voted for a republican candidate. I really am a socialist to the point I’m a communist. Now, here is my take on Donald Trump, blah blah blah. But the yellow bellied blue rat snake won’t do it. By the way, making Marlette a rat and a snake at the same time is genius.
