All in a good cause: in the name of ideological purity!

Isn’t this a little hard? Maybe not.

I always figgered that if’n ya’ don’ spend it, y’ ain’t needin’ t’ borry it in the firs’ place.

O’course we’s jus’ simple folks out here in ‘Flyover Country.’

I can’t stand that silly smirk of his. Down there, Mitch McConnell would probably be considered management material.

Mitch can visit Robert Byrd while he’s there.

Looks like Mitch is giving Scratch the thumbs up!

When did he become ths sole reason for going over the cliff? Where is Reid, Boehner, Pelosi, and, most importantly, President Obama?

Oooo, are you one of those “tolerant” liberals?

I’m sure they’re only doing what’s best for their parties.

J A B has offered tax increase on millionaires vs bho offer of zip on non military spending next year

No, it’s not. McConnell is like a murder/suicide fanatic, willing to destroy our country in order to “save” it (or millionaires, at any rate).

I truly hope he gets sent packing.We in North Carolina had Jesse Helms…I see the turtle man as the identical ilk.Happily, Father Time and Mother Nature tend to business with brutal consistency—-

Oh great distortion there T. And a resounding example of Republican double-think.

It’s easy to say, “don’t spend it if you don’t have it”, but that is far to simplistic for today’s situation. W “had it”, then slashed taxes and raised spending.

My experience is that the worst sinners think they are the most pure.

Seems a great spot for an essay on religious symbolism, but…nahhhhh.not a helpful cartoon on so many levels.Sadly,C.& Have a Happy Safe New Year’s Eve!

He is not known as “The Whore of the Senate” for nothing.

Please start a recall for turtle-boy!

Yeah, and someday he hopes to have someone to put in it.

Yeah, that’s the room with good music. Enjoy your Pat Boone in Heaven, Mr. lma.

Like spending on education, roads, bridges? Or do you ever leave the holler?

McConnell… domestic terrorist, or assistant to the Kochs, errr, I mean Satan.

And you are God of course!! ONLY God and Jesus can say just exactly who is going where. If you are even close to being the Christian that you claim to be, you should know that and not condemn any political persuasion, one way or the other!!!!!

Mitch and the Republicans have the same objective they had in 2009 – Obama must fail, regardless of what happens to the country. The current proposals are ludicrous. Think post-WW2 when the nation boomed:.-Shut down the military and the war machine and employ men and resources for peaceful purposes. -Tell the military-industrial complex to take a hike.-High tax rates on those that could afford them.-Massive public spending on infra-structure, education, and research – stuff that increases the productive capacity of the nation. -Raise capital at home, not borrow from foreign countries that exposes you to the vagaries of the capital markets and foreign exchanges..The country boomed then and it could boom now with proper public policy and with a Congress that works for the people, not for their next re-election.

“Mr. Ima’s Greatest Hits—-an instant classic!

… is there room for libs with so many repubs already there.

The cartoon says it all. Well really when ya think about it most of congress should be there toasting along with him.

Cheney needs to trim his horms.

…any deal with the Devil can only work one way or he don’t make ’em…
