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…

The Romney Platform
Friday, June 29, 2012

Checkpoint Clackamas + Website Renovations
Saturday, June 16, 2012
I was very busy this week finally getting a redesign for This is Historic Times online, so I didn’t have time to draw a new cartoon for the site. In the meantime, the above is an illustration I drew for the Portland Mercury a couple of weeks ago. The graphics editor at the paper was responsible for the overall creative concept, although most of the details were left up to me.

Bulls***
Saturday, June 2, 2012
I’ve been going too easy on President Obama lately. His Administration’s policy of bombing “suspected terrorists” in unmanned drone strikes has drawn criticism, recently, for the danger it represents to innocent civilians who might just happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time…
Mitt Romney: American Psycho
Saturday, May 26, 2012
