Jules Feiffer has described Tony Auth best, "His perspective is that of a bemused and often angry comic historian. Irony, never a favorite form with Americans, is his meat and potatoes. He is not smug, and though he can be mean, he is never mean-spirited. Auth is a moralist and an optimist. He insists, even in this day and age, that hope is more than the name of a right-wing comedian or the shtick of a reactionary president."

One foot on the gas and one foot on the brake.

Meanwhile, THE ONE said “most transparent” and “most responsible” before he said “it’s Bush’s fault,” and “spontaneous protest of a youtube video.” It amazes me how the collective pundits are more afraid of what they think MAY happen more than what IS happening right beneath their noses (i.e. the most corrupt and careless presidency in human history).

The fat lady has yet to sing, but the clowns are out in full force. Must be the intermezzo before the final act.

“Obama to the letter ‘T’”
.
As in “..STop…”? That’s the only letter “t” I see there.
.
So you’re saying that the difference between Mitt and Obama is “..op, I say go go go.”
.
OK.
.
Makes about as much sense as so much is scan here.

True, and NBC reports Mitt is closing the gap in Battleground States.

If your liberal mind was able to think more creatively, you would have named him Paul McRomney.

(i.e. the most corrupt and careless presidency in human history).
yohann Van Winkle: it’s time you and the other Republicans woke to your own statement repeated so often: “W” isn’t president any more. Cheney HAS had a change of heart, literally, but there’s no indication he’s changed his mind, or profit-taking at the expense of our troops and country.
