Do you have any idea how hard it is to raise five boys and dressage horses on a family income of only a quarter of a billion dollars? No?? Well then DON’T SCOFF Ann Romney’s choice to be a “stay-at-homes” mom!!
Max ROMney
Saturday, March 31, 2012
I was watching this popular Youtube video about a week ago, and a segment at the end with a bunch of Mitt Romneys on televisions screens made me realize that the candidate looks a lot like Max Headroom, the “computer-generated celebrity” from the 1980s Coca-Cola used as the pitchman for their disastrous New Coke product line…

The Incredible Cash Dummy
Saturday, February 25, 2012
I had the idea to summarize Romney’s “stiffness” with a reference to the dummies used in crash tests for automobiles. It seemed appropriate, given that the Michigan primary fast approaches, and could be a make-or-break moment for the candidate: He grew up in the state, but his stronghold there has been weakened by abysmal debate performances and his own calls to “Let Detroit Go Bankrupt“…

The idea for this cartoon dates back to Santorum’s victory in the Iowa caucus, early last month. I thought it was funny enough at the time, but shelved it because I wasn’t sure Santorum’d manage to stick around for long afterwards. Fortunes can change rather quickly in the primary process, and I’ve had more than one cartoon’s relevance weakened, this cycle, by starting it while a candidate remained in the race, only to have him or her drop out hours before I finished…

While my own, personal feelings on the execution of Osama Bin Laden weren’t quite as black-and-white as most, it’s inarguable that it was a major political victory for the Obama Administration, from the perspective of the American electorate. This is why I find it ridiculous that practically every candidate in the Republican Primary (with the exception of Ron Paul) apparently insists on sticking with the ol’ Conservative standby, “[Democratic candidate] is weak on defense!”
Hip to be Square

Those who follow my Twitter feed may have noticed me making a comparison between Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney and Patrick Bateman a few weeks ago. I got the idea after seeing this infamous photograph of Romney and his cohorts at Bain Capital…
Mitt Robbery
Saturday, January 21, 2012
A report, released earlier this week, revealed that Mitt Romney (as well as the investment firm he ran, Bain Capital) keeps a portion of his vast personal fortune in offshore tax shelters on the Cayman Islands…
