I stole this idea for this week's cartoon for The Costa Rica Star. I stole it from myself. When Hurricane Katrina was sweeping its way toward New Orleans I submitted this idea to my editorial page editor at The Free Lance-Star. Not only did he not approve it, he got upset. Really upset. He did... Continue Reading →
Ding Dong Dictator
So I had two ideas on Fidel Castro's death and I wanted to draw both of them. I was thinking how funny it was that Castro survived eleven U.S. presidents and when he finally goes our president is Cheeto Potentate. Did you like this cartoon? Want to help a cartoonist make a living? Look to the... Continue Reading →
Hasta La Vista, Fidel
A lot of people are saying "F you, 2016" as they're upset at the number of celebrity deaths this year. I don't get that. Famous people die every year. Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain, John Lennon, George Harrison, Jeff MacNelly, and Herblock didn't die in 2016. But I too would like to tell 2016 that it... Continue Reading →
Darling Nikki
I have one newspaper client in South Carolina. When they read the first panel of this cartoon they'll probably think "hey, alright. He did something on our governor" and then they'll hit the next panel and say "oh god no." Sometimes I like to tease my readers on social media on what my next cartoon... Continue Reading →
No Time For Intelligence
JaMarcus Russell was a star quarterback for LSU. He was thought of so highly that the Oakland Raiders made him their number one draft pick, number one overall, in the 2007 draft, and signed him for $68 million. Russell loved the NFL money and lifestyle but the man didn't have any interest in learning how... Continue Reading →
Standing Rock
There's been very little attention given to the protests opposing the Dakota Access Pipeline in the Dakotas and I'm as guilty as the rest of the nation's news organizations (though I have drawn one cartoon on the issue a few weeks ago). Earlier this week a 21-year-old girl from New York who had joined the... Continue Reading →

Among all the stupid and idiotic issues Donald Trump ran on the promise of jailing his political opponent was the dumbest. First, it's illegal. It was one of the Articles of Impeachment written up for Richard Nixon, and yet Trump ran on it. He was promising to be impeached. Second, it's not what we do.... Continue Reading →
Trump Cup
While many Trump supporters are going to Starbucks and demanding that "Trump" be written on their $5.00 caramel creme brulee frappuccino while whining they're being mistreated because they're white, white nationalists are holding rallies and victory parades and sieg heiling Donald Trump. I'm not talking about a couple of good-ole boys from the backwoods of... Continue Reading →
Grabbing Sessions
With Alabama Senator and Elmer Fudd lookalike Jefferson Beauregard Sessions becoming Attorney General, that department's "justice" will only be in the name. Even his name is kinda racist. This guy probably snores the n-word (I stole that joke). Sessions has voiced hostility toward the department for not defending a federal ban on gay marriage. Look... Continue Reading →
Politics For Gobblers
I know several of my clients will want a Thanksgiving cartoon this week. Sometimes I just ignore that as I'm not a fan of holiday-cliche cartoons. They can be so boring. Worst than sports cartoons. Blah! But I didn't mind doing this one as I've been doing a lot of mean cartoons lately...or forever. My... Continue Reading →
