   Yeah no kidding. The Demoncrats are the ones who are openly treasonous, and yet constantly lauded for it by the mainstream media..

   Excellent cartoon comrade. Commissar Obama will allow this to be published in the state-run media. You are now eligible for a grant from the people’s endowment for

   Hey GOP, why was it unpatriotic to criticize Bush but it is OK to criticize Obama?

   bleeep, there was one administration caught using taxpayer money to bribe media commentators into writing stories favorable to its policies. Not the current one.

   Last Panel: Had Goober gone into Afgan with an exit Plan and stayed the Course instead of maing up lies to go after Saddam for pure Vengence because Saddam threatened his Daddym then we would have Osama in the Ground, and our Troops would be home.

   For the Idiot Republicans who claim: “But Saddam had to be removed because he was killing Iraqis need to explin why you Supported RR and HW Bush Supporting Both Terrorists, Saddam and Osama for a total of 12 years?

   Saddam was killing Iraqis when RR made a deal with him to secure the release of oour Hostages to be annouced shortly after he was sworn in. Then RR turned around and supported Iran in thr Iran Iraq war. He supported bth sides. This means RR Supported 3 terrorist Nations with the Full Blessings of Republicans.

   GaryK, excellent point. I’d forgotten about that little gem.

   Actually, the US supported Saddam and the Taliban until it was more profitable to attack them.

   As Hunter S. Thompson said after 9/11, ‘The US has to attack someone, Afghanistan, Iraq, but somewhere.’

   Only the US waited for the full story and the songs.

    IF the Dems had really put up as much a fight against stupidly invading Iraq as the Repugs are now putting up against EVERY program to benefit Americans, we would have been better off.

    Yes, Gary K makes an excellent, and understated, point from a multitude of unaccounted sins.

    Saddam nationalized Iraq’s oil industry, cutting American oil companies’ profits. He had to go.

    Our efforts in Iraq have been an outstanding success thanks to Bush. Status quo has been re-established.

    Wonders how ANandy, scottfreitas, and tjanus manage to live given that it appears that all they do all day everyday is spew anti-american garbage on political cartoon commentaries.

    I also seriously question whether they are ‘real’ and not ‘college republicans’ paid by the increasingly bizarre party of Karl Rove.

    That is an astute observation, Diane. Though it seems they would probably want to be paid for all of this repetitious typing, I can’t really imagine a budget that would merit the usefulness of their monotonous chanting. I think these folks are really obsessed, nervous, and extremely angry miserable people. There is an outlet here in these opinion boxes where they keep screaming the same message, but any rational person is bored to even look anymore. I think they are probably real…. but REAL bleeeped up.

    Just like the pictures of Bush with a Hitler moustache were cute and funny; now ones of Obama with a Hitler moustache are racist.

    Cute and funny? Were you lurking over at DU, perhaps? I think most people were just as angry at the comparisons then as they are to it now.

    Mind you, imo at least with the Patriot act or the warmongering there was some, albeit very slight, connection you could make with Bush. With Obama, it is what… rumors that late at night he’s drinking schnaps, laughing maniacally and planning to nationalize the industry? That the slightly-higher-taxes-for-wealthy-and-tax-breaks-only-for- middle-and-lower-class would mutate into communism a la Mao (still not Hitler)? Where’s the beef?

    Heck, if people compared him to Lenin it would still be exaggeated and tasteless, but less absurd.

    What? Never saw that one. Got a link?

    believecommonsense said, about 1 month ago

    ^ you know what, I never saw distasteful caricatures of Bush either. I’m willing to believe there were some, but where are they righties? Got links?

    I know Rall did a strip on the Bush-Hitler comparisons, btw (and it didn’t portray Bush in a good light), but I’m not sure Bush-O was done with a ‘stache. Then again, someone on the internet was probably tasteless enough to do it /shrug.

    cdward said, about 1 month ago

    Not to be petty, but if it was Rall, that’s moderately different since he’s been skewering Obama with equal venom.

    Godwin’s Law (also known as Godwin’s Rule of Nazi Analogies)

    Godwin’s Law is a humorous observation made by Mike Godwin in 1990 which has become an Internet adage. It states: “As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1.”
