This is one of the most powerful political cartoons I’ve seen in ages. The reference is brilliantly entertaining while very, -very- effectively driving the message home, and it’s all backed up with amazing artwork. You probably get this a lot (especially after the somethingawful Comedy Goldmine feature,) but this level of quality -needs- to be published somewhere.

Outstanding. Absolutely outstanding.
But look at it this way. Had Frodo simply tossed the ring into the lava at his first opportunity, then Cheney, er, I mean *Gollum* would never have fallen in.
Think about it.

Obama is standing in for Isildur in this cartoon, with Russ Feingold in the role of Elrond.
So I guess that means we won’t be rid of Cheney for another 3,000 years.
