Hi GoComics readers,
Many of you have expressed curiosity and even concern about the comic hiatus for Pat Oliphant's drawings. We wanted to share that Pat is doing well, in good health, but simply on vacation. As soon as when we have an update on the date of his next drawing, we'll share the news here and via social media.
We have wonderful readers. This is an example of the impact that an artist and their work can have on lives and we will continue to value that relationship with you. Thank you.

Called "the most influential cartoonist now working" by The New York Times, Pat Oliphant occupies a unique position among today’s editorial cartoonists: Widely considered the dean of the profession, he is one of its sharpest, most daring practitioners.

Apart perhaps from the Viagra, there is nothing at all new about Berlusconi. “Meet the new boss…”

The LIttle Dudes in the foreground say: “Why can’t we have amusing politics?”
Your country tried once and half of you had a hissy fit.

You are speaking about Bush’s election and re-election, correct? That’s when less than half the country had a hissy fit.

Your country held elections once and caused a world war.

Oliphant finally wrote a cartoon with humor in it. Give us a break.

The main body of the church hasn’t sanctioned polygamy in about 100 years.

It’s a couple of the offshoots who do it, and none of them are recognized by the main body.

Berlusconi is famous for partying with eight young women, hence the eight women in the cartoon. He wins elections because he basically owns the media in Italy. It’s a great example of how the free market fails when there isn’t adequate government regulation of monopolies.

And he sings?
He’s the poster child of the 1%. His predecessor got shot down by forcing austerity on the Italian government and they revolted.

That’s how the kenyan won a second term after 4 years of failure in the States. Loyal, simpering serfmedia.
