    Ah, the cartoonist’s lament. (Late night comedians are also about out of material with Herman and the hot dogs all gone.)

    “Too bad you libemedia servants are verboten to lampoon The Chosen One.”The Chosen One? Really? You’re going to try to hoist Obama back up to religious status again? Can you at least try to be something more than a one trick pony?

    Best hope for the Repubs is that Newts job is Perminately done. Newts brain function never has been nor never will be fit for civilized human beings; his brain extracted wouldn’t even make fit Head Cheese for pig slop. Do America a favor Newt, go to an earily grave.

    I’ve never seen Oliphant so blatantly “break the fourth wall” in the main part of his cartoons (I’m not counting Punk.) Danziger has done it at least several times. Adams did a whole series. Is it one of those “Rainy Day” ideas when a cartoonist can’t think of anything else?

    Bad ol’ delusional Newt, we will only miss your idiocy, your dishonesty, your cowardice, your greed, and your whore of a wife. (Is there anybody here I haven’t offended?)

    RIR, please provide one example of an Obama supporting cartoonist or columnist who used the phrase “Chosen One” in reference to Barack Obama. The only people who use that phrase are right wingers such as yourself.

    Getting back to today’s strip…..It’s interesting that conservative pundit David Brooks pointed out that all of the congressmen who worked with Newt were against his campaign, and conservative Bob Dole pointed out that all of Newt’s ethics fines damn near bankrupted him without outside saviors…I mean, it seems like ANYBODY should feel contempt for Newt, whether liberal or conservative or moderate (like myself).

    @DrCanuckSorry to have offended you or any other liberals (or conservatives for that matter), BUT Newt just happens to be one of my pet peeves. A chicken hawk (as Ron Paul rightly called him) who thinks of himself as General DeGaulle. A man (to use the term incredibly loosely) who hasn’t yet cheated on his third wife (as of early this morning……..) And his third wife DID know he was married all those years she was having an affair with him. (Although I shouldn’t call her a “whore”, that was VERY wrong of me. Which is why I channeled Lenny Bruce for a little bit there……..)
