Worst Political Cartoons

[Kit Walker]

How'd he make the money? Charity gives power, too.

By being a ruthless - but generally ethical - business person. There's a world of difference between the kind of power Bill Gates had and the kind of power Mitt Romney has, a world of difference between the long-term impacts of how they got the power, and a world of difference in how they use it.

Also, another one: Barack Obama, a greedy fuck? Really? He was upper middle class all the way, but he could hardly be called greedy. Ambitious, yes, but ambition is not greed and ambition is not evil. Greed is evil.

Actually, the so called 'Fast and Furious' thing turns out to be a lie. It never happened.

Not for nothing, but Wikipedia (I know) says that the ATF was running the kind of stings that caused the scandal on and off from 2006-2011. Five years, give or take. There was no movement on the cases the earlier operations until Obama took office. No matter what, these stings were cluster fucks on the part of the ATF. Accidentally allowing hundreds of guns end up in the hands of the Mexican drug cartels isn't that much better than doing it on purpose.

By exploiting monopoly. That's not hugely ethical.

How would the ATF have prevented those weapons from being legally purchased by Mexican drug gangs?

Yeah, I don't think so. Only 5% of his foundation's money goes into charity a year, just enough to avoid paying taxes. The rest of it is invested in companies like Coca Cola, Dow Chemical, Exxon Mobil, Shell and Chevron.

...I don't know if this is supposed to portray some kind of symbolic evil ritual, be a general symbolic representation of what Dees thinks is going on in the world, or if that's supposed to be some kind of "voodoo globe" they're about to stab.

I really hope its the last one.

I also like that either Skeletor, Doctor Destiny, or Thulsa Doom is a member of the Zionist Conspiracy. Also, Obama seems really "meh" about the proceedings.

Some conspiracy theories state that the most powerful and rich people in the world are actually a part of a satanic cult, which may or may not take place at the Bohemian Grove but usually involves some kind of blood sacrifice. They are cutting up the globe to represent how they're sacrificing the world for their god Satan, and also dividing total power over the world amongst themselves to further their shadowy agenda. They are also wearing Stars of David with Zs on them because that apparently means Zionism has something to do with it. (In the background, there's also an icon of an owl with the letters "BC" next to it. I don't know what that stands for, but IIRC the owl is a mascot of the Bohemian Grove.)

... I know too much.

And now you have to "disappear".

[Deus ex Populo]

Given that the main character of Green Eggs and Ham eventually comes to like the titular food items, despite his earlier reservations, I think it's fair to say that the creator of this cartoon missed the whole point of that book.

[SpaceProg]

Dangit... beaten to the punch again. 

What Deus Ex said.

Bet you they didn't have problem "Trickle down" Reaganomics.

Romney planned it first.

And I would like to remind everyone that so-callled “Obamacare” is what remained after all the back and forth in Congress.

[VirtualStranger]

Republicans did, back in the 90's

Course the legislative back-and-forth is also Obama's fault. He's head of the party that had 60 senators and the House.

IIRC, there were not 60 Democratic Senators, as the majority was not fillibuster-proof. And that was the problem - the GOP fillibustered the original plan (including the public option). The only way to stop the fillibuster and pass the bill was to remove the "offensive" parts.

Michelle is attending a formal, public function (assertion is that it is the Olympics and that she met with the Queen of England, but I don't know for certain.)   Obviously it's irrational for Michelle to wear an expensive formal gown.

Ann is being interviewed by a news program.  She needs that ugly fish shirt to show people how fun-loving and unpretentious she is.

Also asserted: That dress and pose makes Michelle's butt look big.  So despite her arms and torso still being twig-thin, she is obviously 'obese', and a hypocrite for encouraging others to eat healthy.  Nice.

 

[nickiknack]

That is an ugly shirt, and it's crime that costs $900, let alone it even exists in the first place.

I'll like to know how much they know the cellphone in question cost, that it's even a "Blackberry" to begin with it, it could be one of those tracfones, most cellphones no matter how cheap they are have the ability to take a photo nowadays.
