I spent Saturday knowing Jeb Bush would drop out of the campaign later in the evening and I was still considering taking the night off. I thought about putting a Jeb cartoon off until Sunday (published Monday morning). What happened was I ended up drawing two cartoons. I had an idea I was OK with... Continue Reading →
Republican Fun With Photoshop
We all know Ted Cruz is sleazy and is running the dirtiest campaign of anyone currently seeking the presidency. That's in addition to his general all around creepiness and unlikeability. On the day of the Iowa caucus he told supporters that Ben Carson had dropped out, and he hadn't. This week his campaign circulated a fake... Continue Reading →
Pope Vs. Trump
Just when you think campaign 2016 can't get any crazier, Donald Trump enters a feud with the Pope. The Pope. Pope Francis. The guy who lives in the Vatican. Yeah, that Pope. You can create a who's who list of everyone Donald Trump has feuded with, Fox News, Megyn Kelly, Chris Wallace, President Obama, Hillary... Continue Reading →
Obama’s Nominee
The Republicans have truly lost their minds. They're screaming against Obama's nomination for the Supreme Court before he's even made one. With all the vitriol you would think Obama had already submitted his choice and it was a black-Puerto Rican lesbian atheist, abortion provider with a cold sore...or Kanye West. The GOP says the people... Continue Reading →
W’s Bigger Little Brother
When George W. Bush strode across that flight deck 30 miles off the San Diego coast, wearing a flight suit and boasting "mission accomplished," it might have been the most obnoxious photo op in political history. Now Republicans are arguing over how W. kept us safe, and did a good job fighting back after terrorists... Continue Reading →
Good Riddance
Within minutes of the announcement of Supreme Court Associate Justice Antonin Scalia's death a lot of liberals went to town expressing their excitement and happiness in the event. A lot of those people are friends and readers of mine. I'm not comfortable with that. I understand not liking the guy and I didn't. I was... Continue Reading →
Republican Road Rage
I hate the Clown Car analogy that's been tossed around to describe the Republican candidates for president. It's not that I disagree with the description. It's that it's a lazy analogy and not creative at all. If Chris Matthews uses it then you shouldn't (and it's an analogy he repeats every day). So I may... Continue Reading →
Head Cuts In Washington State
Here is today's cartoon for The Seattle Times. Washington governor Jay Inslee is having difficulty retaining department heads. The head of the Department of Corrections resigned due to inmates being released too early and watching it happen for three years. The DSHS Secretary resigned because the state has been under court orders to improve how it treats... Continue Reading →
Scalia
I am not rejoicing the death of Supreme Court Associate Justice Antonin Scalia. Yes, he wrote opinions I strong disagreed with. I viewed many of his views as hostile, racist, and anti-constitutional. I felt he favored partisanship over law. But I also do not want to just write nice things about the dead. Even when... Continue Reading →
Ted Cruz’s Erotic Office Space
Today's blog should only be read by mature audiences (sorry, Republicans), after 10:00 PM and only after you put the kids to bed. Ted Cruz is hiring porn stars. That's what I expect future robocalls aimed at Republican voters in South Carolina to start claiming. That'll be a hoot. Ted Cruz and Porn are two... Continue Reading →
