  Joe,

I don't know, but its appearance here suggests that the writer has been 
following Disney comics at least since 1987, when Rosa debuted (as 
opposed to being an old Barks sourdough).  Does anyone recognize the 
Rosa stories from which these panels of Magica and Scrooge/Flintheart 
sprang?  It's a long shot, but I thought I'd ask...

That is an AMAZING mainstream reference!  How do you think Don Rosa 
feels about his art being unexpectedly politicized?

Joe.

How about THIS for an unexpected reference to Scrooge McDuck and company 
in popular (with conservatives, anyway) media:

I'll also post a link to this on my blog. The Launchpad McQuack 
reference REALLY caused my eyes to pop. Someone at THE WEEKLY STANDARD 
is definitely a Disney comics -- and perhaps even Disney TV animation -- 
fan!
