None of these cartoons show an ounce of subtlety and they certainly don't try and assume too much in terms of intelligence from their readers.

he seems to be pro war, anti nra, pro religion, anti choice, anti enviromentalism, anti business, anti big-govt, pro bush to a point, pro conservatism but not always republicanism, anti sex, anti fat, anti gay, anti affirmative action

― %%, Tuesday, 13 January 2004 18:19 (twenty-two years ago)

really his hatred of fat girls is far more offensive to me than the political stuff, the fact that i can see past it to love him still is proof he is the greatest artist of all time

― %%, Tuesday, 13 January 2004 18:21 (twenty-two years ago)

bnw - that's exactly the argument that some fundies made after 9/11 (Jerry Falwell, I believe?) - that we were attacked because we weren't religious enough.

I don't see why you like the Brian Farrington ones so much, apart from to laugh at. They seem kind of ordinary, except for the head-pummelling messages. Some of the other ones on the first thread were much better (Cork and Forkum, or whatever it was).

In answer to Kelly's question, there's female political cartoonist in the UK called Nicola Jennings who does quite a lot of stuff for the Guardian.

― N. (nickdastoor), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 18:33 (twenty-two years ago)

I get the sense that this guy thinks he's writing for 8-year-olds.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 18:33 (twenty-two years ago)

you know that farrington and his ilk would have shitloads of bad things to say if some liberal cartoonist were to have drawn limbaugh as "a whale spouting off."

btw, has fatfuck been prosecuted yet?

Can we ban the word "ilk" from the English language now?

By 'laugh at' I meant 'ridicule', sorry. The art seems v.generic.

The art actually kinda looks like the dude who did "Mother Goose & Grimm" (who was also a political cartoonist, IIRC).

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 18:42 (twenty-two years ago)

nick i know you meant ridicule, im saying farrington is really just a great artist who has some disagreeable conservative views! the cox & whoever ppl in the first thread were obv totally entertaingly insane but their cartoons werent any good

Really? I remember looking at cartoons in the paper several years ago that were *really* similar to Farrington's in style, maybe I'm thinking of another guy.

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 18:52 (twenty-two years ago)

The only cartoonist I've seen in either of the two threads whose work looks good to me is the centrist Christian Science Monitor guy. But even Farrington looks like a fuckin Velazquez compared to the what's-his-face who inks for the New York Post.

I don't like the kind of drawing where everyone is ugly and has a big nose. I suspect the pretense is that the artist is an unflinching 'realist' or something, but that is so cliche and pompous to boot. People aren't really that ugly.

x-post - we saw that one already.

― Kerry (dymaxia), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 19:42 (twenty-two years ago)

I like those R. Crumb 'faux-racist' editorial cartoons that were reprinted by various 'real' far-right hate sheets because the irony was oh so delicious, just like all the irony on this hilarious thread

From my limited exposure (usually via the Comics Journal), mainstream American editorial cartoons always seem to have like drawings of bags of money labelled 'capitalism' and horrible pictures of ostriches labelled 'the electorate', and so on. Isn't Pat Oliphant meant to be 'good'?

Mind you, editorial cartooning in Britain is, if anything, even worse - such ugly ugly pictures! (Nicola Jennings, who N mentions, has somehow managed to trump that clown Martin Rowson in the can't-draw-for-shit stakes)

c=========8
City Journal is the nation’s premier urban-policy magazine, “the Bible of the new urbanism,” as London’s Daily Telegraph puts it. During the Giuliani Administration, the magazine served as an idea factory as the then-mayor revivified New York City, quickly becoming, in the words of the New York Post, “the place where Rudy gets his ideas.” The Public Interest goes further, calling City Journal “the magazine that saved the city.”
c=========8

What motivates a person to wage war against their own country and sympathize with the likes of Osama bin Laden? Part of the answer lies in the spread of multiculturalist ideas. These citizens have been taught by our intellectuals to hate their home countries, and that hate is fertile ground for Islamism...

Network executives - and the leaders of EVERY large corporation - hide behind the First Amendment in order to make gigantic "campaign contributions" that ensure their point of view is hmm how shall I say this, VERY represented in our nation's legislative proceedings. "Freedom of speech" is, to them, "freedom to bribe." As for the second cartoon, I absolutely agree that the term "adult entertainment" has been perverted to become synonymous with "crudeness." I have scanned the dial in the US for entertainment befitting adult sensibilities and come away, by and large, empty-handed.

― kingfish cyclopean ice cream (kingfish 2.0), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 14:24 (nineteen years ago)

ah, here we go. According to David Horowitz's site, both the site and CFK were started by ex-Ukrainian Oleg Atbashian and Brian McCarthy.

...When he arrived in the U.S., Atbashian was puzzled by the "level of delusional affection for all things Left among the 'liberal' intellectual elites who take America's exclusive well-being for granted." At that time Oleg dismissed this "delusional affection" as silly and of little consequence.
[...]
...Says Oleg, "The People's Cube, was launched on April 1, 2005 as a sequel to CFK. The title comes from an idea we developed in CFK: a Rubik's cube with all six sides red-an ultimate symbol of political correctness, feel-good morality, and collectivist ethics: nobody is too smart or slow-everybody is equal! The new site continues to develop the same satirical themes, forms, and characters, such as, Lenin and Laika the Space Dog, but also constantly adds new ones as it grows every week with the help of an online community that has gathered around it. Anyone can contribute. People from Washington, Pennsylvania, Texas, Nevada, Virginia, and other states post their comments, come up with funny characters, and some eventually start their own colwnns. I'm hoping to turn it into a nation-wide community portal of spontaneous political humor and parody for conservatives, libertarians, objectivists, and anyone who supports and celebrates America's freedoms, individual rights, and capitalism."
If you enjoy dead-on political satire, clever graphics and gut-busting humor, "The People’s Cube" is not to be missed.

gut-busting, you see! GUT-BUSTING!

― kingfish cyclopean ice cream (kingfish 2.0), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 14:30 (nineteen years ago)

You can tell this is satire done by rightwingers, because you can't help but suspect that this is a very clever effort by somebody else to make them look like idiots.

I think the guys in ties are businessmen who decided to fly Islamist Class to save money.

The humor in that one is doubly undercut by the fact that it would be a really bad idea to seat terrorists unobserved on the top surface of an airplane, especially in a cartoon world where they could still breathe and function up there. Perhaps in this Islamist Class utopia we have developed special planes that can only be harmed from the inside.

no...it's just the belief that if bosses have to raise the amount they pay their minimum wage workers it'll eat up al their profits...because of the last 6 years there's been such a great amount of profit sharing!

Dude even said he wished we had slaves again!!!! It was great! I died laughing through this movie because of things like that. The cowboy who said we "need to kill the muslims" and all. HILARIOUS! You guys are missing some of the best nuances of the movie. The shape shifting jew comment with the cock roaches and the running of the jews, and the not flying in case the jews blow up new york again. That is not only funny, but it makes folks think.

look at the top artists like doboy burren dyk psycho-Sim etc i wouldn't call them Jews lol

i say to you save your breath mate trance is white and id be alot more concerned about black/Jew created hip hop reggae r+b rap tripe that's spreading like a virus and causing the destruction of our own peoples mind and freewill

Techno is white music. Just because some jews in the entertainment industry try to corner the market because they can get record deals and producers does not make it jewish.

you can't listen to prodigy cuz Liam Howlett married to former all saints star natalie appleton and she is half-jewish

― ledge, Thursday, 15 March 2007 16:55 (nineteen years ago)

What strikes me is just the awkwardness of the bodies.

I mean, the strip is nothing but talking point and posed bods, but just the clumsy framing & positioning of the female characters just seems so unnatural and off-putting. There are strips that relies on plenty of cheesecake(e.g. Liberty Valance), but even in that case, Frank Cho(coming from a trad. comics background) has a far better idea of how to draw attractive female characters in non-spine-damaging stances right in front of the camera.

Vicious lie: During slow moments at Senate committee hearings, Hillary Clinton spontaneously draws little doodles of those testifying.

The real deal: Senator Clinton has a “response team” of trained caricaturists based in her campaign headquarters. She faxes an outline of the doodle she wants to them; they work on it in committee, hashing out several concepts that they do rough sketches of. Once a week, Clinton reviews their ideas, selects the drawings that she thinks will best attract independents and moderate Republicans without alienating her base, and then sends them to an outsourced inking agency in Southeast Asia for final implementation.

Germ of truth: Al Gore does not want to be President of China or India. When his armies of fearless warriors finally subdue the dual realm he refers to as “Chindia,” he will assume the title “Deathless Padishah.”

Vicious lie: The average newspaper reader will see the abbreviation “MSM” and know right away that it stands for “mainstream media” — specifically, the libero-communo-Islamofascist media conspiracy that wants to run the president down from the behind.

The real deal: The average newspaper reader, unfamiliar with this newfangled blogspeak, will see “MSM” and assume that it retains the meaning it has had in public health discussions since the early 1990s: “men who have sex with men.” They will assume that the two behatted gentlemen in the truck have just finished sodomizing one another. They will understand that they want to run the president down from behind, though.

OK. You're freaking out. I didn't jump on the Bushies. Well, they're idiots and can't figure anything out. But Bush and Gonzalez didn't break any laws and didn't even go nearly as far as the Clintons did. If any laws were actually broken it was probably from New Mexico's Senator for sticking his nose into it. I know people are upset and there is a cover up, but they don't have cover it up. The president, even if he's a jack ass, has full authority to fire U.S. attorneys.

IMHO the 'nappy-headed' part of the imus insult -- i.e. using an african phenotype as an insult -- was WAY more offensive than the 'ho' part, but that distinction is completely lost on these guys.

― nabisco, Friday, 13 April 2007 21:04 (nineteen years ago)

Okay and even if you take it as given that "liberal media" = "Democrats," and that's who they mean by "we," then I guess this is a world where black voters are hyper-aware of that equivalency, and turn on their TVs and think "hey, media is really on our side on this issue, therefore we should vote for Democrats, who we all know are interchangeable with all media?"

The thing about seeing the "but-but-but hip-hop is full of swears!!" defence over and over again, with hip-hop personified as a black guy with bling and that, is that after a while you start to get the feeling that maybe the r-w cartoonists are implying "it's okay to call those girls 'ho' because they're black (+and that's how black people talk/they're used to it/that's just black women get called)". Especially with the way that these cartoons all ignore the racial slur part of the statement, as if that wasn't offensive at all, was just a... descriptor.

― kingfish, Monday, 16 April 2007 20:17 (nineteen years ago)

C sharp, the problem is that All This White People actually have zero idea what was offensive about the Imus remark. That's my conclusion. They seem to believe that it was offensive because the words were inherently offensive / racist / etc. (They're insulting, largely on beauty-myth and misogyny grounds, but there are a million ways you could use them without anyone batting an eyelash: e.g., imagine a black woman saying "I didn't have time to fix my hair this morning -- it was so embarrassing, showing up to work looking like some nappy-headed ho.") Hence the "black people say it" response, trying to argue that the words are not inherently unacceptable. But of course what's unacceptable isn't the use of an insult, it's that Imus looks at young black women who are successful, motivated, educated, and just generally Nice Young People Doing Well for Themselves, and the first thing he has to say about it is "you're still ghetto whores to me."

On May 6, 2002 United States then Undersecretary of State John R. Bolton gave a speech entitled "Beyond the Axis of Evil." In it he added three more nations to be grouped with the already mentioned "rogue states": Libya, Syria, and Cuba. The criteria for inclusion in this grouping were: "state sponsors of terrorism that are pursuing or who have the potential to pursue weapons of mass destruction (WMD) or have the capability to do so in violation of their treaty obligations." The speech was widely reported as an expansion of the original axis of evil. The allegation of Cuban WMD capability was particularly strenuously denied by the Cuban government, and disputed by former President Jimmy Carter who visited the country a week later after being briefed by US officials.

it's that Imus looks at young black women who are successful, motivated, educated, and just generally Nice Young People Doing Well for Themselves, and the first thing he has to say about it is "you're still ghetto whores to me."

This certainly explains why Imus' comment was so repugnant, but it doesn't explain why people can't view rap lyrics which use those words in derogatory ways as being equally offensive.

And while we do have a slew of (probably almost all white) right-wing nutcases making this argument, it's not a comment only made by white people (which seems to be something a lot of people are insinuating as a way of de-legitimizing that point of view.) I know that I've seen Leonard Pitts criticize misogynous rap lyrics on multiple occasions.

(Note that that cartoon up there again seems to imagine that the problem with Imus lay in the exact words that came out of his mouth, and not a whole bunch of contextual stuff: I said on here months ago that "rappers do it" is a piss-poor excuse for anything, but in this case the truth is NOBODY can show me any rappers calling specific women hos on cable television during daytime hours!) (Even if they re-run BET ComicView during the afternoon, probably!)

― nabisco, Wednesday, 18 April 2007 22:54 (nineteen years ago)

Nathan, you're welcome to view rap lyrics (or rock lyrics, or blogs, or whatever) as equally blameworthy when they use insulting or degrading language -- as countless black figures do all the time, without getting much notice whatsoever from the public about it. I think, however, that there's a very large difference between the following two things: (a) someone like Ludacris making reference, on a pop record with a parental advisory, to abstract unspecified hos somewhere in your area code, and (b) a respected political commentator on mainstream morning airwaves calling out specific women and insulting them this way. There is a huge difference between talking about some ho somewhere and actively calling someone out as that ho.

You're definitely right that there's an important difference, but I think that in each instance, there's a basic disrespect being leveled at women. Someone commented that Imus' remarks were so repugnant because he looked at dignified, accomplished people and saw "nappy-headed hos." It seems to me that anyone else who regularly refers to women in similarly derogatory ways would suffer from the same problem. That's why the rap argument isn't as easy to write off as some people seem to think.

Of course the presence of profane lyrics in rap (or any genre of music) doesn't mean Imus is innocent, and it doesn't make the left hypocritical. I've heard rap lyrics condemned - on the left and the right - much more often than they're defended. The sad reality is that anyone can turn on a basic cable network and see women being portrayed as sex objects and referred to as "hos," "bitches," or any other score of awful things. Bob Herbert said it pretty well in the NY Times a few days ago:

Something has gone completely haywire when young American boys and girls are listening to songs like “Can You Control Yo Hoe” and “Break a Bitch Til I Die,” by Snoop Dogg, formerly Snoop Doggy Dogg, formerly Cordozar Calvin Broadus.

Whether it's Snoop Dogg or Imus, I wonder why there seems to be such a market out there for people who like to see other people disrespected. The issue is big enough to include both Imus and rap, I think. Whether it's specific (like insulting the Rutgers team) or general (like having songs on the radio and music videos on TV which constantly insult women in similar ways) - it's destructive.

So yeah, the instances are different, and the context matters. But it seems to me that we're dealing with one issue: disrespect of women in the media. Imus looked at the Rutgers team and saw "nappy-headed hos." Lots of rappers seem to look at women and see sexual objects to be conquered (the recent hit single "I Wanna Fuck You" contained the classy line "Money in the air as mo’ fell/Grab you by your coattail, take you to the motel, ho sale"). I think both are repugnant.

― Nathan, Thursday, 19 April 2007 00:25 (nineteen years ago)

good for you?

― TOMBOT, Thursday, 19 April 2007 01:03 (nineteen years ago)

Well maybe this belongs on the Imus thread, but Nathan, I really don't think the issue with him is disrespecting women. The issue with Imus is that he has a VERY long history of referring to black people -- of any position or stature -- as ghetto low-lifes, which is why Clarence Page made him swear to institute "a ban on all references to non-criminal blacks as thugs, pimps, muggers, and Colt 45 drinkers." He directs that kind of language at both men and women, and the underlying suggestion is that no matter what you do in life, you're still a nigger to him.

And look, I don't want to let anyone else off the hook for using insulting language too, but I think there's a VERY different quality to stuff like pervasive objectification of women in songs -- that stuff is way deeper and more complex, tied up with two-way battle-of-the-sexes and use-of-sexuality crap, and exists through a hell of a lot more facets of society than just Akon songs. I'm not condoning it, especially in its ugliest forms, but surely that's a whole different cultural issue than the stuff Imus has been up to.

Besides which I think it's just honestly a bullshit conversation to be having in response to Imus stuff. He's not a rapper, and it's not rappers who are criticizing him -- it's mainly the kinds of older civil-rights-era leaders who aren't always friendly to rap content themselves. The only reason people are talking about rap music is an impulse to imagine the Black People Hivemind can't be offended by Imus because Their Guys do some of the same things. Nevermind that the people insulted are black college women, and none of these rap-bashers seemed to be all heated up when the black college women at Spellman took on Ludacris over exactly this issue.

― nabisco, Thursday, 19 April 2007 02:04 (nineteen years ago)

(I mean, look, there are ways of using insulting language that are ugly in a free-floating cultural way, and there are ways of using insulting language that are very specifically ugly -- the latter you can call out and pin down individually, but the former requires a more general approach. This is why I can be happy to see action against Imus, but don't expect it against, say, constant typecasting or media images w/r/t black women.)

― nabisco, Thursday, 19 April 2007 02:14 (nineteen years ago)

You're right to point out that Imus' track record includes far more people than simply the women of the Rutgers team, or even women in general. I guess he just picked the wrong target this time.

I think that what Imus does is certainly different from pervasive objectification of women in music, but I don't think the two issues are mutually exclusive. They fall under the same puzzling question: why does our society seem to enjoy devaluing people?

And I don't think the only reason people are talking about rap is "an impulse to imagine the Black People Hivemind can't be offended by Imus because Their Guys do some of the same things." If that were the case, prominent black voices wouldn't be joining in on the criticism.

That said, I definitely agree that these leaders pick their battles strangely. There was a conspicuous lack of support for the Ludacris protest among people who claim to be opponents of that kind of rap.

Lastly, we might not expect to take on media images or typecasting in their most broad and general senses - obviously it's incredibly difficult to change those sorts of things. But surely you are not insinuating that the difficulty of confronting this issue lets the offenders off the hook. Maybe we don't expect such action, but we can at least hope for it.

― Nathan, Thursday, 19 April 2007 04:40 (nineteen years ago)

Just want to pop in and point out that our society is hardly the first, nor is it the only, to devalue people. A better question might be, "why do human beings seem to enjoy devaluing people?"

because while individual people are okay, people in groups suuuuuuuuck.

― kingfish, Thursday, 19 April 2007 04:54 (nineteen years ago)

Umm Nathan mostly what I'm saying is that I think it's lame and evasive to broaden and abstract the issue from "why is Don Imus devaluing people" to "why does our society seem to enjoy devaluing people," especially when

- (a) we're talking about the last guy who'd excuse himself as just a "product of society,"
- (b) the focus is awfully defensively turned back on people of the race that's been insulted, as opposed to, say, other people in the same field, like the much-worse Michael Savage, or the listeners who enjoy this stuff,
- (c) Imus's comment is in a whole different setting and context from the "societal tendencies" you're doing so much work to blur his idiocy into,
- (d) if the people going on about rap records were really interested in our debased society, they'd be wondering about the public that consumes this stuff (on record and or on talk radio), not just using rappers as a decoy target for anger and blame, and
- (e) I could go on all night, really.

So yeah, when yet another guy kills dozens of people in an incomprehensible rampage, maybe it makes sense to wonder what's going on with society at large, since there's not much else you can do about it -- but when someone gets noticed saying something shitty and awful on what's meant to be a credible daytime political show, howzabout we just say it's shitty and don't try to move the spotlight for a while?

― nabisco, Thursday, 19 April 2007 05:27 (nineteen years ago)

I mean it's not like these people have been giving rap lyrics a free pass all this time, and suddenly feel like their under-criticized content needs a closer inspection for once.

(Haha not that I trust most of these people have any idea what rap lyrics even are; they're operating on an easy-target "rap = filthy" stereotype that -- lucky for them -- happens to be true. But hey really, why that easy target and not the much more relevant Savage, eh? Howzabout our "root of all societal evil" paternalism actually gets divided around society a bit more?)

― nabisco, Thursday, 19 April 2007 05:36 (nineteen years ago)

(Or is the suggestion that OMG it's all the fault of ~~black people~~ rap for dragging poor ~~white America~~ Imus down to their level? Cause this mess is a bit like blaming your heroin dealer for your coke dealer selling you drugs.)

― nabisco, Thursday, 19 April 2007 05:40 (nineteen years ago)

heh, that's what Jon Swift's take was; that this was probably all the fault of black people and the ways they refer to each other.

― kingfish, Thursday, 19 April 2007 07:31 (nineteen years ago)

Eh. I guess I just don't think it's a lame conversation to have - and certainly not evasive, since Imus has already apologized and lost his show. He's more or less out of the news cycle now. And while he might not call himself a product of society, he's certainly a symptom of a societal problem.

Not that we have to limit this question to Imus and rap - having the larger discussion means focusing on more than simply rap lyrics and Imus. Of course we'd consider people like Michael Savage, too. It's important to distinguish between people who want to talk about rap because they want to defend Imus and people who want to talk about rap because they want to talk about the larger issue. The former group obviously would have nothing to contribute, but the latter is not being evasive, nor is it trying to defend anyone. I really am wondering why the public consumes this stuff, and I'm not alone in that. You're right to point out that many, if not most people targeting rap are of the "rap=filth" mindset and are trying to redirect criticism from Imus, but I've read plenty of columns and articles and had plenty of conversations with friends in which we've wondered what kind of person wants to hear that music or wants to listen to someone like Imus or Savage on the radio. For a lot of people, this has nothing to do with defending some jerk in a cowboy hat. He did say something shitty, and he got in trouble for it. Now that the dust has settled (hopefully - but if things get worse with Gov. Corzine, we might hear more about Imus!) I think it would be profitable to start talking about the larger issues at hand. A lot of people have said the same thing, and it's not an attempt to defend Imus or find a decoy for the blame.

― Nathan, Thursday, 19 April 2007 12:44 (nineteen years ago)

Conversations about lyrics need to take context into account, and not just cherry-pick certain phrases and song titles. For instance, in Led Zeppelin's dreary Sabbath rip-off, "Dazed and Confused", Robert Plant says that "the soul of a woman was created below." That goes beyond disrespect into stright-up accusations of being satanic. However, if one digs deeper into the lyrics one finds that the woman in question has "hurt and abused, telling all of [her] lies" -- giving some perspective on the singer's mindset, and making clear that this is a song of pain and hurt that faithfully records the singer's ugly, wildly inappropriate fantasies that result from his rejection. On the other hand, in the Rolling Stones' bouncy summertime jam, "Under My Thumb", Mick Jagger compares women to both dogs and cats and seems to revel in the cruelty he can inflict upon them. The only context we have is that the woman in question "once had [him] down", thin motivation indeed for the sneering, joyous descriptions of the ways in which the singer has power over her. In summary, in "Dazed and Confused", a woman is being called an agent of the devil yet context reveals that it's only a fantasy borne of frustration; in "Under My Thumb" a woman is compared with domestic animals in a way that suggests the singer is not fantasizing but actually does control her this way, and takes pleasure in doing so.

― nabisco, Thursday, 19 April 2007 17:18 (nineteen years ago)

I mean, eventually some of these start getting toward a civil-rights-era mentality: oh those Negro troublemakers and agitators!

The weird PR issue is that some people think this way because they only notice guys like Sharpton and Jackson when they're being indignant about racial matters, and thus really do think of them as agitators -- but this is wholly dependent on America not really being interested in any daily events in black communities, or else having gone to the bathroom during Sharpton's last Democratic convention speech, or slept through Jackson's presidential campaigns and diplomatic assignments, or else just not being able to see black people talking without assuming they're complaining about something. Either way, I'm somewhat psyched that we're getting toward a turnover point of having more and more black figures in politics whose background isn't in the civil rights movement, so they can't get ghettoized that way, and so they'll have modes of action that work better off racial topics.

Marginally? He's positively sedate. The arched eyebrow makes him look like a psychoanalyst or something. It's a really bizarre depiction given the general quality of the lines in the cartoon - from a distance you'd assume it's by somebody who could draw.

I'm assuming that this is another "celebrity american taxpayer citizens do not deserve to have an opinion" thing, but how does the logic break on this one? Sheryl Crow's call for less paper usage somehow so increased the sales of print media that a loose compiling of it would make a stack so high that your average moustachio'd bevested passerby needs to shade his eyes and squint to see the top, so high does it climb?

And is this merely a stack of the entire print run of a local newspaper, or did the guy meticulously cut out each square of each newspaper devoted to the story and before dumping the rest of the pulp into a nearby landfill? There are clearly entire newspapers in that stack, so assuming that the cartoonist is correct and thick, USA Today-sized tomes are published covering only a single story on a single celebrity, is this just a column of all the newspaper from that issue? Did the guy go round to each newspaper box and to each doorstep to collect that edition in order to prove his point that LOL things done with the best of intentions sometimes have wacky if not ironic outcomes?

Or did he one of those guys with resources so grand that he can afford to subscribe to the apparently towering amount of USA Today-sized tomes covering only a single story of a single celebrity, and perhaps this is just a collection of the particular issue that each rag printed.

that being said, what about the other wasteful products that Sheryl Crow's call has resulted in? the waste of coal- and nuclear-generated electicity in order to power the broadcast and internet media covering the story, as well to power the televisions, radios, text-message-subscribing cell phones used to distribute this media?

But enough about that, here's a silly picture of a suit & tied bedecked congressman so in love with that one Polaroid scene from the beginning part of Top Gun that he had to climb into the cockpit to grab the flightstick from the pilot. One could comment on how long and dextrous Congress' arms would have to be in order to reach around a sizeable pilots chair, past the pilot, all the way to the yoke. Does this mean that Congress was controlling the throttle, too?

Jon Swift on Day by Day.
Day by Day is sometimes called a conservative Doonesbury but it is actually a lot more than that. Like Doonesbury Muir often buries his punchlines, but he has gone Doonesbury one better by making it rarely funny at all. By avoiding jokes altogether Muir never distracts us from the Very Important Points he's making. These points are reinforced by the images, which usually feature scantily clad characters standing around talking. Muir has come under some criticism by conservative bloggers for being "too sexy," but by having his characters address serious issues in their underwear, what they say has far more impact than the pronouncements of Doonesbury's fully clothed characters.

Muir has not only stripped down his characters, he has also reduced the actual drawing he needs to do to the barest minimum, which gives him a lot more time to think about the intellectual points he is trying to make. As he admits in an interview, "I have templates of bodies, heads, expressions, etc. If you look at the cartoons closely, you may notice that, at this time, each character has about 5-6 head positions only." Coincidentally, these 5 to 6 head positions correspond to the 5 or 6 political positions Muir takes, which he relentlessly drums into his readers' heads.

― Mike Dixn, Friday, 27 April 2007 01:05 (nineteen years ago)

If Chris Muir drew Charles Schulz's Peanuts, for example, he wouldn't have bothered drawing a panel showing Lucy pulling the football away at the last minute when Charlie Brown tries to kick it. That would be too Old School for him. Instead, Muir would just have Lucy say, "Democrats always pull the football away at the last minute when you are trying to kick it, Charlie Brown." Lucy and Charlie Brown would also probably be in their underwear.

HAHAHAHA those last ones are really funny, they're not so much cartoons or charicatures as they are some guy ranting at the bottom and then drawing a picture to illustrate it. Particularly like the "snappy" stinger on the Maherman and Gobblin' one. HAHAHAHA!

you really get the idea of this guy beating off to his own creations, sometimes. Just the idealized warrior babe shown here:

off in the desert, rockin' their hot bods with a shorts and bare midriff ensemble(the U.S. Army must have updated their BDU standards), and all packing scoped & fully-loaded M4 rifles.

― kingfish, Sunday, 29 April 2007 20:52 (nineteen years ago)

Not to mention the "What, us harassed?! *tee hee*" thing, which is a pretty noticeable contrast to how another cartoonist handled the "sexual problems in the Army" issue:

Part of that is b/c I only select a relatively small subset of the stuff to post on here. The cartoons are funniest when these guys unleash the immense amount of hate they have for those dirty fucking hippies, ruining the country, taking away the rights of white males, being overt sympathizers with terrists, stealing the change from their pockets to coddle criminals and ne'erdowells, etc etc etc.

Each one of these guys will go after one or the other republican candidate that they don't like, but almost all the cartoons are negative in tone. Then again, aren't almost all political cartoons like that?

"Signs of the Times" (Mission Accomplished vs Mission Lost) strikes me as an astonishing display of doublethink - are we now to the point where conservatives can straight-facedly celebrate Bush for saying the mission was accomplished and put "FOUR YEARS AGO" in the same panel? Does it completely escape them that if we've been through four years and we're talking about the same mission then presumably it hasn't been accomplished? aughghghakghdsklfsdjsdfsdf

I also like how they pretend that the Republicans were SO TOUGH on Foley -- apparently willful ignorance passes for "casting out" a pervert from your party.

Frankly, I don't know why any conservative would bring up Foley. It does nothing but illustrate the corruption that was at the heart of the Republican-controlled Congress. There's no good way to spin it (as that cartoon showed).

Apparently, without strong fathers there to indoctrinate discipline into their sons thru beatings and other harsh punishments, the kids will turn into gang-bangers and/or school shooters exactly 18 years after their born.

― elmo argonaut, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 21:18 (nineteen years ago)

single motherhood is always an informed, reasoned, feminist decision.

I think these guys view it like how they view pro-choice supporters; that abortions should be handed out like candy, a choice effortlessly taken by coddled teenagers who want to shirk responsibility, without a second thought for anything, and that this decision is always easily arrived at on a whim and there's never, ever any external circumstances or systemic problems that could compel them into such difficult places.

After all, you're responsible for every single possible thing that happens to you, aren't you? And shirking your responsibility is morally wrong and will make you a weak, bad person.

― kingfish, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 21:22 (nineteen years ago)

This is quite a good book. The myth in question is that abortion is easy, and it's a myth purported by both sides of the debate.

How did a kid shoot 23 times with two revolvers? Also, dig the apple on teacher's desk that stopped a bullet.

On the Russell Simmons one, I love that "Snoop Dogg" is still shorthand for "violent, gangsta rapper". I know the guy needed some name that otherwise-culturally-ignorant conservative readers would understand, but the fact that the cartoonist picked the one guy whose only pop cultural output that the readers would have seen would be the harmless comedy bits from the last 5-8 years(note that i'm not including the singles here)? It just strikes me as really unintentionally funny that the needed cartoon shorthand references are the exact opposite of what the reality has been.

not one punchline or actual joke in the lot.

Muir should just drop the pretense and just have draw speech bubbles coming out of the same drawing of redhead's ass copied across three panels.

― elmo argonaut, Friday, 4 May 2007 18:31 (nineteen years ago)

why does that last one even have a drawing

Aren't partial-birth abortions, um, commonly performed with a hammer to the skull of the fetus?

― Mike Dixn, Friday, 4 May 2007 21:54 (nineteen years ago)

that is how i like to do them

― river wolf, Friday, 4 May 2007 21:57 (nineteen years ago)

I like how they depict it as "IF HARRY REID HAS HIS WAY" when any form of doing something different iraq is now supported by a good majority of voters.

― kingfish, Friday, 4 May 2007 22:06 (nineteen years ago)

wtf is PARTIALLY BIRTHED 2008 CAMPAIGNS supposed to mean? those candidates support abortion rights so they're gonna lose?

haw haw, he apparently also thinks that it's okay if beating up gay people is sometimes overlooked, and, oh yeah, that acts of terrorism or conspiracy to commit it so have no extra penalty whatsoever, and accidental vehicular manslaughter = murder, because we can't possibly start passing laws on intent now, can we?

Wait, isn't part of functional illiteracy not being able to understand street signs, maps, and presumably whatever sort of graphics the govt. would provide?

― Abbott, Monday, 7 May 2007 21:16 (nineteen years ago)

the actual punchline to that comic is that DC is one of the five most educated cities in the country. or at least "over-credentialed" as my grad prof sez.

― TOMBOT, Monday, 7 May 2007 21:23 (nineteen years ago)

ssssh, he doesn't know that there's a difference between "functional illiteracy" and "illiteracy"

― kingfish, Monday, 7 May 2007 21:23 (nineteen years ago)

He does know it involves face bandages, nose picking, and what appear to be either 'boozles' or blowing bubbles while holding the wand in your mouth.

― Abbott, Monday, 7 May 2007 21:25 (nineteen years ago)

I like his bag labeled PANDERING.

― Abbott, Monday, 7 May 2007 21:25 (nineteen years ago)

The bandaged-face guy is prob. supposed to be Bubbles from The Wire who must've just wandered over from Baltimore.

There are several hidden punchlines to that joke, including the briefcase marked "pandering" -- to people who can't vote for you.

― nabisco, Monday, 7 May 2007 21:50 (nineteen years ago)

Plus obviously a HILARIOUS Jim Crow joke about literacy as a prerequisite to voting rights.
