Rational Actor
Friday, August 31, 2012
Aside from the lying, one of the major themes of the Republican National Convention was trying to humanize Mitt Romney to the American public, which worked out like an alchemist attempting to transmute lead into gold. There were several reasons for this, not all of them tied to Romney’s being a soulless, private-equity golem powered by tax fraud, diet Coke, and skinless turkey…

Let the Sunshine In
Saturday, July 21, 2012
The classic portrayal of the vampire is a shape-shifter who drains the life-forces of others to indefinitely maintain his power and youth, while Romney has shifted positions on just about any political topic of the last ten to fifteen years, his personal fortune is built on liquidating other people’s assets, and he looks like he does at age 65.
Job Creationism
Friday, July 13, 2012
I started this cartoon as a general attack on the term “job creators” and the kinds of people it’s been used to defend, when, about 24 hours later, Romney went and made it more immediately relevant with a condescending speech to the NAACP, which was deservedly booed…
