   Lol. A rare Toles comic that seems to have originated over at Fox News, being completely Fair and Balanced. ;D

   I’d like to see Toles draw a version of the Capitol building that doesn’t look like it’s either melting, or sinking into the earth.

   The way things are going, both occupants could be from the same party.
   Cheers!

   Wow, although I agree that this cartoon is ‘fair and balanced’ i would never say that it came from Fox News. Which is neither fair or balanced, or even news.

   Funny but one side needs to be fat and bloated

   Hey toasteroven, maybe he sees that building like the Jokers hideout in the old Batman TV Series? Or would the Riddler be more appropriate?

   You’re right!

   Hey, Tom - you drew the Republican wrong!

    D.C. has always been a side-show mirror, where reality rarely intrudes. The teeter totter has been around at least since Jackson, and they’ve never taken to wearing helmets for protection.

    At least he hasn’t taken on that tribute to Washington, the national phallic symbol.

    If TT draws the Capitol Bldg. crooked, perhaps this is an instance of art imitating life?

    If it weren’t for the fact that Toles draws most of his people in the same manner (triangular, tilted, and melty), I might say yes.

    But for now, I’m putting it down to bad art.

    What Republican, those are two Democrats! 1 Senator and 1 Rep. ! And we can only hope the “Capitol” sinks maybe then we can get things down!!

    Whoever thought that everything “should” be bipartisan doesn’t even begin to understand representative government. Bipartisanship exists only when things are uncontroversial (like the Afghanistan and Iraq war votes!). Other than that, our representatives are not supposed to “get things done” for their own sakes! We elect them to say NO to the other side for a reason.

    Haberno nailed it. I don’t want to compromise with Demoncrats. I want to DEFEAT them.

    Repeatedly.

    Seeing the Demoncrat Party forcibly tossed onto the ash heap of History by a disgusted planet, as was Germany’s Nationalist Socialist party, would suit me perfectly fine, in fact. Let the Green Party replace them, I’d prefer battling green nuts to battling nut nuts.

    Why, after the bastards started the Civil War, killed 600,000+ people, tore our nation in two, and then were finally militarily DEFEATED, was the Demoncrat Party allowed to survive… I will never understand it. :(

    Never forget every state which seceded from the Union was 100% Demoncrat. No other political party had any power, or played any role, in that decision-making process…

    @ Scott So you’re saying we should have lost to the British during the American Revolution since Republicans fought for the side of the British (whigs is what you were called back in the day). Is that it? Same ideologies, different crown.

    And i bet you would have loved for the south to have won that war since we all know how you guys despise the negro. Newsflash: The Union Won! And no, they were not republicans. Pick up a history book. “But Lincoln was a republican!” In title probably, but his policies were left wing to the extreme.

    And if the states were 100% democrat why would a bunch of mugwump good ol’ boys with hoodies on their heads like yourself place the confederate flag at your front door? Again, pick up a history book.

    scott, if you’re going to judge the Democratic Party (and you’re not helping your case with the “Demoncrat” thing) as the party of the Civil War rather than that of FDR and JFK (let alone Andrew Jackson), then are you going to judge the Republicans only as the party of Lincoln and not as the party of Bush, Bush, Gingrich, and Palin?
