Some late Sunday comics
A day late, but not a cartoon short. I found too many to choose from this week, so I'm bringing them all to you. Lots of things happened last week, and an active week always spawns lots of great political cartoons.
This is about the size of it. The war-mongering and testosterone was flowing so freely at last Tuesday's debate, I was waiting for all of the candidates to drop their pants to measure the size of their weapons. I can't figure out if it's a sick commentary on the state of the Republican Party, or our society as a whole. Probably lots of the former, and some of the latter.
I'd be lying if I didn't say it's a pleasure to watch everyone fight for a life jacket as everyone is jumping off of U.S.S.W.
In case you missed it, the last lapdog is Australian Prime Minister John Howard. And indications point to Gordon Brown, who will succeed Tony Blair, is not going to go along with Bush's War.
I don't happen to agree with most of what Kerry got criticized for "flip flopping" on in 2004, but whatever. (In hindsight, Kerry's alleged "flip flopping" looks pretty minor compared to what Bush has done to us, doesn't it?) Romney, Giuliani and McCain are in the lead for flip-flopping on the issues so far, in that order.
John McCain has made 4 out of 14 votes on Iraq in the Senate this year. I wonder what his explanation is for that?
Tragically true. I wonder if Louisiana will be a blue state or a red state in 2008? I'd love to know how many denizens of the bayou state would like to have their votes back after the state went for Bush in 2004.
Both are folding as we approach the 1/4 turn, but there's lots of time left. But, both are going to have lots of major questions to answer about their shifting positions.
NAFTA and free trade are both disasters, and both parties are to blame. But, building a wall is about 1/1000th of a solution to our immigration problem.
It's only a matter of time. Bush could have one less PR disaster by giving Wolfowitz and Rumsfeld their Presidential of Medal of Freedom medals in the same ceremony.

Spot on, as we found out late last week.
