Batshit Rightwing Cartoons 2011

JFK looks conflicted. standing in a group of mostly 'good presidents', but clearly tempted by Obama.

conversely, W., tho positioned right at the edge of the Clinton/Obama/Roosevelt axis of evil, looks particularly concerned about the sad man, and perhaps eager to redeem himself.

Isn't Teddy Roosevelt liked by neo-cons, or have I got my facts wrong?

Also weird that the guy who led the US to victory against Hitler is reviled for some vaguely socialist policies that actually demonstrably sorted shit out.

This is all view from abroad BTW, call me up if I'm being ignorant about anything.

TR is borderline - you'd think they'd like his somehwat tough-talking bent but he's too associated with progressivism here, which as everybody knows, is merely the first step down the path to communism.

think the guy to the right of FDR is the demon headmaster? not sure

Woodrow Wilson/Demon Headmaster/Jack Straw, who knows?

definitely the worst 'where's wally' ever

You'd think Washington would be wondering what the big building behind him was?

he's hiding behind a chimney pot, having just lowered old glory to half mast

xpost

conversely, W., tho positioned right at the edge of the Clinton/Obama/Roosevelt axis of evil, looks particularly concerned about the sad man, and perhaps eager to redeem himself.

I think he's more like, "Wait, isn't that President, um, you know...?"

Just like FDR to be all "fuck that unemployed asshole, he can bootstrap himself out of poverty."

whereas John Adams is like "dude look at all this money on the ground, you sure you don't want to pick any of this up? hell I'd do it myself if I wasn't, like, a ghost"

Isn't Teddy Roosevelt liked by neo-cons, or have I got my facts wrong?

A Liberal Family Saga

jeeeeeezus

like 20% of the DL cartoons over the past 4 months are ifglobalwarmingisrealwhyisitcold.

out of all the "skeptic" arguments, i think the only one that's more stupid is howcancarbondioxidebebadforusifweexhaleitwitheverybreath

Aww, Liberal Family Saga is lolzy.

Oh look see he's got an American flag and he doesn't know what it is because he is a liberal.

ikr????

these are monumentally unfunny cartoons.

Oh look see he's got an American flag and he doesn't know what it is because he is a liberal.

Conan, how could you

yeah i'm not convinced rightwingers will be so appalled by ayn rand with follicular priapism

dunno that setting a pair of boxer shorts on fire is much more than a bit of air pollution, i'm with the disgusting lefty here.

how did he get those off without removing his pants????

Best thing about the aeroplane one, is the 'straight' woman sat next to the guy she thinks is a terrorist and is setting fire to clothes. She's all like no way am I losing my place in this book so near the end.

That's some unputdownable shit right there.

Ha ha. All the rows behind are full of conscientious readers too. Smoke? What smoke?

The wit and wisdom of Diversity Lane readers. I know they would take this as a compliment, but they make my brain explode.

That's a very roomy airplane.

"Wouldn't it be hilarious if she slit her throat with a sharpened spine of The Fountainhead?"

Eww.

...how does that work, exactly? I mean, a book spine is by definition extremely blunt, and if you "sharpen" it you destroy the binding and the pages fall out and okay I'm really overthinking this arent' I

I think the thing is they're UNDER-thinking...

you know k-lo is doing our job for us now?

Good old Daily Mail
http://plixi.com/p/77547872

fwiw that's a reference to a hotel that put a sign up saying the same thing [ie a witty topical reference], as opposed to throwing 'poofters' around w/o any context

it always seems quite lame how the cartoon is just a pictorial version of one of Liljon's joeks from the column mind you

haven't read a paper copy of the mail in ages but the layout/font/graphics seem unchanged since about 1995

they're #1 why try harder

littlejohn walks a weird tightrope in his tone. between "who cares, this is absurd, who could keep up with, or be bothered about any of this PC nonsense" and "OMG this is outrageous, think of the children finding out what a gay is"

I may be the last person to learn this but I only found out last night that Littlejohn lives in a gated community in Florida and gets all his hysterical hell-in-handcart stuff from an ocean away. If you read about a columnist in a novel who did that you'd think it was very clumsy satire.

YOU COULDN'T MAKE IT UP!!!

Ha ha. Quite.

Racial ventriloquism also?

totes, was completely thinking that

Just found this old thing posted somewhere and holy shit I know it's very old news but wow

Oops that was meant for the 2010 one.

see what's funny to me about that is that you could read it as a triumphant---smug, even---liberal cartoon, and definitely as a disappointed rightwing smdh @ u romney piece

"romney's been getting hit really hard on the issue of 'being a nice person' and guess what? he doesn't have any knucks of his own! why don't you have them, dude??"

doubly funny is how confusing the whole dumb metaphor is: brass knuckles = dirty chicago politics, fine, but "taking the gloves off" usually means "let's REALLY get into it, none of this padded gloves garbage"

and maybe "really getting into it" is like let's go MAN to MAN on the ISSUES, but here it could be an appeal to really dig up more half-assed birth certificate friends with terrorists bullshit on obama, i dunno. or maybe it just means "romney's ready to quit."

so, is Obama winning in a fight that should end, because he's cheating, so we can go back to talking about the issues? or is it time to take the gloves off so the people can see a REAL fight, with blood and guts? or is Romney losing at something he literally does not know how to do (cannot do, because he's gotta be nice), and now wants to quit?

gbx, don't you want the several minutes you spent analyzing that cartoon back?

i was bored!

j/k. It's a disingenuous cartoon and not funny or insightful

right, but it's so meaningless as to not really be that batshit to me, like even the cartoonists don't know what to do with this

The "nice person" bubble of text throws the interpretation in either direction to me.

Guarantee you the reporter in the bottom-right is a self-portrait.

batshit rightwing cartoons: 2012 and imaginary romney presidency years edition is still going, but maybe the imaginary romney administration has already disappeared from the right-wing psyche...

intrinsically, it's a perfect cartoon
