Tired of "politically correct?" Want an editorial cartoon that is quick to call out the bumblings of U.S. politics and cuts slack to no one? Pulitzer-Prize winner Ben Sargent is paying attention and making Washington have second thoughts about that little thing called the First Amendment.

Sargent lies again. Tax cuts are not spending. Soending is spending. Obama has incresed the cost of businesses complying with government which is a huge hidden tax on all of us.

It’s only a tax on those whose profit is reduced.

Wow, Ryan looks like Igor in this one. Looks like a John Waters movie here.
Good one, Mr. Sargent!

Right on Mr. Sargent. Ryan looks like the Grinch, appropriate as Ryan has no heart either.

Obama tax plan?
3 guys eat the same meal and 1 bill comes to the table.
1st guy gets up, takes the tip off the table all three put into , walks out the door with out paying.
2nd guy pays 1/3 of the bill maybe part of a new tip.
3rd guy pays 2/3 of the bill.
Obama cries no fair. The guy who paid 2/3 the 3rd guy, took the money from the 1st guy. He mean and evil and rich. He should pay 3/4 the NEXT time around. And if he does not he is stealing from the 2nd guy.
My question for you Ben. What is the 3rd guy to do the NEXT time around? Work more to make more to pay more? Or how about not even show up.
Of course the bill also came with Obama already putting 40% on the credit card of China. And he wants to KEEP on doing that.

Inequality is at an all time high, Ryan and Romney would like to take it higher.

Harley, this is about the 5th time I’ve seen the EXACT SAME POST! Do you have it on speed dial from FAUX “News” headquarters??

@masterskrain
all mine! and it is not exact. I added the 1st guy taking the tip, then I added Obama’s 40% on his China credit card. I could add Obama own words in that “China’s credit card in the name of your children and grandkids”
But this little story is mine and I write it out each time.

My story is based in facts. This strip is based in Loony left Obama land.
Look it up yourself.

Uh huh. What does that have to do with romneys plan to cut taxes on the rich, and raise them on the poor?
dfowensby said, 10 months ago
all you have to do is swap out obama for romney. noone would notice any difference. theyŕe all the same
ARodney said, 10 months ago
They aren’t the same at all. Romney would lower taxes on the rich substantially, increasing my taxes, and creating deficits as far as the eye can see. Obama doesn’t get taxes back to where they need to be for a functioning country (we were actually doing a lot better under Clinton than we have under W and Obama’s Republican experiment), but at least Obama’s not planning to take us irrevocably in the wrong direction.

Is this still a comic (Politically infused strip?) or is there something more that I just can;t get it?
