About La Cucaracha
La Cucaracha is a unique strip that provides a view of the world through the sharp, satiric lens of its young Latino characters and the fertile mind of acclaimed creator Lalo Alcaraz. Growing up on the U.S./Mexico border gave Lalo a dual outlook on life. He’s not "Mexican" enough for his relatives in Mexico and not "American" enough for some in the U.S.A. It’s this double-edged Spanglish attitude that fuels this jalapeño-biting satirical observations in his daily comic strip, La Cucaracha.

Oh, come on. The Republican party was not the same as the Spanish Inquisition. The Republicans used totally different torture techniques, and weren’t pro-Catholic.

What’s really hilarious is that the current Pope Benedict previously held the title of “Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith”…an office established in 1542 as the “Congregation of the Holy Office of the Inquisition”
