Dittohead
Jonathan Martin of Politico revealed a vast left wing conspiracy against El Rushbo. Okay not so vast, but James Carville, Paul Begala, and pollster Stanley Greenberg determined that Rush is less popular with young voters than Jeremiah Wright, at least among those who know who Jeremiah Wright is. Carville’s response, “It’s great for us, great for him, great for the press”, “The only people he’s not good for are the actual Republicans in Congress.” For more on the Rush diversion go to the Daily Beast.
Your dittohead cartoon has a rather warped perspective on reality, somehow implying that the Democrats with their gas can are responsible for our current economic disaster.
I know that warped perspectives can be funny, depending on your point of view. But what people find the funniest is what we recognize as truth. The blatantly right wing perspective of this cartoon does not ring true and is not funny to people who know what is going on in our economy and in this world.
I guess if you’re pandering to the minority group of dittoheads alone then you hit your mark. But if you want to be a generally recognized quality cartoonist like Mike Luckovich, try coming from truth, then give us the punch line. You’ll make a lot more people laugh.
Ha! That’s pretty sharp, Lee, to put “pandering” and “Mike Luckovich” in the same paragraph. Now you just need to eliminate the words in between. When does your subscription to Time expire?
