The Wizard of Id has been enchanting audiences since 1964, but the real wizards behind this comic classic were artist Brant Parker and writer Johnny Hart.
The pair began paving the path to the Kingdom of Id in 1950, when Parker, a staff artist for the Binghamton Press in upstate New York, was asked to judge a high school art contest. Among the entrants was a teenager by the name of Johnny Hart, whose work so impressed Parker that he arranged a meeting.

Aye Hillbillyman,except I’d expect the “Typical Despot” to be a bit bigger in height and in charm?

Did you see that the Russian Communist newspaper called Obama a Communist and the people that voted for Obama fools?

Interesting. If he bought Apple stock in the 1980s, he threw away a lot of opportunities to use that money. If he bought it in the $80 range (in 2006), then he did OK. The best time to buy was 2004.

I never said you need to march lockstep… first off that’s a right wing thing. I said to call for division and strife when ALL Americans need to pull together to bring the country back from the Abyss Bush brought us to is necessary. You may disagree with Obama all you want but to preach division and to talk treason makes any who do so traitors to America if that fits you then YES!.. I have put links for SGT to look at the prove the falseness of some of his statements … he ignores them because it would force him to look at the truth and possible wreck the foundations of his treasured hatred. He waves the flag and then does his best to destroy the country… what else would you call his ilk?

Be sure you count Mitt Romney, and Bob Dole on your hate list as what we have now in health care was first purposed by Dole and the Heritage Foundation and implemented by Mitt in Mass.

The best way to cut spending has gone past… Bush took us into a war (unjust war at that) with no way to pay for it. That isn’t enough for you? Lets remember that when Clinton left we were very good shape fiscally and he ran us into trillions of debt selling off our grandchildren’s future to give his buddies a chance to rebuild the infrastructure in Iraq. You may call backing the president marching in lockstep but I disagree I call that being an American. You have every right to disagree but he is Our legally elected President, It’s so amazing that reactionaries cry “Love it or leave it” as long as someone is objecting to their polices but when they disagree with the peoples choice its fine to talk sedation and treason. Maybe you do not understand what I mean by backing the POTUS, I disagreed with many of Bushes polices but I never voiced sedition or treason. I wrote my congressmen, I tried to get things changed in the legal way. I was not like Sgt who has spewed his venom for months. My employers for the last twenty years have ALWAYS given their workers choices on coverage, putting a voucher system in would just make it MUCH more complicated. I for one am very glad you right wingers didn’t get a voucher system for Social Security before the Bush disaster, because we all would be paying so much more to rescue (welfare etc) all the seniors who’s funds went with the stock market crash.
