When in the presence of bushies I always wear my waders and bring a big, wide shovel even tho I’ll probably drown in the bullshit anyway. At least I’ll be able to raise a one finger salute and shout, DOWN WITH GEORGE, DICK, GONZALES, RUMSFELD, ET AL with my dying breath.
The FAA is hassling the wrong people. Rednecks, homophobics, tea partiers, birthers, Citizens United backers and others of their ilk are a bigger danger to this country and its Constitution than any terrorist. (Hell, if our security apperatus can spot two planes with ink cartridge bombs before they arrive or explode at an airport … .) Isolated acts of terrorism (yes, even 9/11) are rare compared to the harm the aforementioned are doing.
Wether we appreciate Oliphant or not, anyone familiar with political cartoons in general should know that the opinions they express in their art are those of the cartoonist . Here in NM the newspaper in my city (Albuquerque) is Conservative as is its syndicated political cartoonist, Trevor. Oliphant leans to the left, Trevor to the right. If I don’t like they’re message, I’ll whine to the editor about it. Nine time out of ten the editor senses my leftwing progressive bent and trashes my letter. Which is O.K. I guess. At least someone read it and made her stop and think. Be glad this forum respects your right to freedom of expression. Any self respecting newspaper/magazine would junk at least half the trash sumitted here.
