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

   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?

   To get a somewhat different take on the Newt, google “Game of American Thrones”.

   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?)

    Oh, I’m not a ink drawerer like these fellows, just a friendly gust of wind to their house of cards and the outrageous imbalance of Fox news and the WSJ on one side and PBS, NPR, all of Hollywood and all the other lib “newz” propagandists on the other.

    Twas not I who made Jugears a god….please refer back to 2008 when the libmedia gave up all pretense of being “journalists” and began openly shilling for The Chosen One.

    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).

    Wasn’t it Bob Dole who paid Newt’s fine? $300,000 nearly bankrupted Bob Dole?
    .
    $300,000 is the tab for Breakfast at Tiffany’s for Newt! (but it is a BIG breakfast!)
    .
    I like the play on punk’s “SOB!”

    Are you saying—-with a presumably straight face—-that the media didn’t portray Ears’ election as the arrival of a (socialist) savior? “FORWARD”.
