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."

He didn’t, really. While not perfect, it was a much bigger feces sandwich for the GOP to eat than us liberals. Nice job, Mr. President!

Yep ERYX but give it some time. Your sandwich – a large hero for sure – is on the way.

Frankly, I don’t expect Obama to do much on the environment, but that is the hero sandwich the kids will ALL have to eat. Fortunately, I have none.

It is amazing that no matter how badly Republicans screw things up, and screw the general public, to favor corporations, contractors (defense), and the “uber-rich”, their trolls will always blame Obama.

Liberals are crying about WHAT, exactly? 77% of us just had our payroll taxes go up. Inflation is sure to follow. One trillion in new ocrapcare taxes are about to hit, with still more in the coming years. As you fill out your intimate medical history for the IRS every year from now on……Don’t blame me, I voted AGAINST obama tyranny!

Thanks to you, MaximilianG and Barack Obama I will never think of “president” the same way again.
