An Education. In Anti-Semitism.

An Education: The Movie Poster

I just saw the movie “An Education.” And indeed it is. It teaches you that anti-Semitism is alive and thriving. In this curdled film, Peter Sarsgaard plays an older man named David who meets 16 year old named Jenny. Within seconds of their meeting he announces he is Jewish. He proceeds [...]

Drill Baby Drill

So, sue me. Maybe I shouldn’t bundle these two cartoons together, but  the cartoon below popped into my mind (or did it poop into my mind(?)) during the 2008 campaign.  John Lennon was right, “woman is nigger of the world.” But only because women allow it. That’s my opinion and I’m sticking to it. The [...]

The Economic Meltdown: Perpetrators Still Perpetrating!

This cartoon leapt out of my head at the NY Press Association shin-dig this week. The guest speaker was Tom DiNapoli, NY State comptroller. He was spinning our economic woes on the softener cycle when he said: “remember, we recovered from 9/11 and we’ll recover from this.” I got instantly so majorly pissed off that [...]

The Pope's Excuse.

So, the Vatican won’t defrock this priest, even though he defrocked 200 boys. Oh, and they were deaf boys. I’d say that it’s the Vatican that’s deaf, wouldn’t you? Does this possibly add a tiny grain of disbelief to the argument that the only reason the Pope joined the Nazi party when he was younger, [...]

Is Congressman Tim Bishop On Drugs?

So, here’s this week’s cartoon. Where is Joe Wilson (you lie!) when we need him? The fatuous Tim Bishop could use a Joe Wilson treatment right about now. Anyway, one good thing – maybe the only good thing – is that he has a charming and hilarious Deputy Cheif of Staff named Jon Schneider. I [...]

I Wish I Could Afford Some Of That Free Speech

Congressman Tim Bishop, Dis-Misses Women On His Website!

Dear Congressman Bishop,

I’ve come to your website to send you an email. I am asked to fill out a form telling you who I am and giving you my contact information so that you can respond to my concerns. The first form field asks me  for a “prefix.” The available choices, seen in the screenshot [...]

One For The Ladies!

I just thought I’d try embedding a YouTube video here. Will you look at this guy dance? At around 2:10 minutes, when he dances with the pole, could you just die?!?! Admit it! You WISH you were that pole! And 10 seconds from the end, around 3:20! Oh! Oh! A magnificent heron spreads his wings! [...]

The Privileges Of Wealth

Harold E. Ford Drops Out Of NY Senate Race To Get His Diaper Changed

Harold Ford Decides Not to Run for Senate Seat

Harold E. Ford Jr., is the 2 million dollar a year Wall Street guy, a carpetbagger who migrated to New York, from Tennessee, after losing the 2006 U.S. Senate race there. He wins the prize for one of the most ungracious political concessions ever. He withdrew [...]
