[CatWoman]

[Jacobin]

[nostamj]

[rwork]

6. I remember

when he would'nt take a call from the German Prime Minister.

[CatWoman]

7. Sorry N!!! We just couldn't wait!!!

you've got to admit they are pretty funny, tho :D

[Sal316]

4. I'll piggyback, too...

[ElsewheresDaughter]

5. omg! too funny ...........so sadly sadly true

[Junkdrawer]

8. Say: Its that Toles a LIHOP dig??

Love the Rall too.

[sexybomber]

12. nah, probably not, but he is a genius.

I think they're just saying "we've got all those other problems, so F it, let's just end it all here."

[Junkdrawer]

14. I don't know - he underlined Let...

I'll bet he reads the Guardian...

[sexybomber]

15. Good point.

I suppose I can't come to terms with fairly mainstream people agreeing with me on the LIHOP thing... who knows.

[Raenelle]

9. LMAO.

What can we do? I was going to say cut taxes. :hippie:

[ArkDem]

10. Who is the guy in the LBJ cartoon?

.

[Vadem]

11. I was wondering the same thing. He looks like a composite

of Wolfowitz and *.

[Junkdrawer]

13. Who is buried in Grant's Tomb? n/t

[TahitiNut]

16. Mr. & Mrs. U. S. Grant.

(How soon we forget.)

[ArkDem]

18. My guess is that whoever is buried at Grant's Tomb

Rall couldn't draw them either.

[grasswire]

19. it seems to be a composite of Nixon and LBJ?

See the curved nose? It was Nixon who botched the peace talks after which tens of thousands were killed. It was Nixon who had a bogus "secret plan" to end the war after his election.

[Vadem]

21. I can see Nixon (the five o'clock shadow and curved nose)

but I sure don't see LBJ in that cartoon!

[BlackRhino]

17. Ted Rall can't draw for SHIT.

And his politics are often questionable.

And by many people's accounts, he's an arrogant, insufferable asshole who takes himself WAY too seriously.

Give me Tom Tomorrow's clean lines and (relatively) subtle humor over Rall's ham-fisted crapulance any day.

(But mabye my opinion is colored by the fact that I've got a big soft spot for LBJ)

[DealsGapRider]

20. Couldn't have said it better.

Ted Rall is a despicable man. His insensitivity to Daniel Pearl's widow was absolutely stomach turning and it doesn't stop there.

[Sick of Bullshit]

22. Oh, the irony

"And by many people's accounts, he's an arrogant, insufferable asshole who takes himself WAY too seriously."

Funny thing-- by many people's accounts (including Bobby Kennedy), LBJ was exactly the same way
