    1. Suki   16 years ago

      You steal my sunshine.

      1. PIRS   16 years ago

        Good morning Suki!

        1. Suki   16 years ago

          Hi PIRS!

  2. Fist of Etiquette   16 years ago

    So there is oil in the water hazards on the links, too?

    News Flash

    Obama still blaming prior administration and "Republican Congress" (last disbanded in 2006) for continuing economic woes.

    1. PIRS   16 years ago

      This got old long ago. I wonder how many people still buy this line. Mind you, I do blame Bush for signing the TARP bill but Obama also voted for it as a Senator.

      1. Suki   16 years ago

        It is still popular "on the street" even now.

    2. Leaders with Plans   16 years ago

      We blame everything on Proposition 13.

  4. jj   16 years ago

    I actually found this one funny.

    1. Mike Laursen   16 years ago

      Yeah, me, too. Dammit!

      1. Fiscal Meth   16 years ago

        Very funny!

  5. mr simple   16 years ago

    What's the funny part? I got distracted by the bad, even for a political cartoon, artwork.

    1. Rahm Emanuel   16 years ago

      I could explain it to you, but then I'd have to kill you.

    2. spencer   16 years ago

      ya me too is that suppose to be Michelle?
      it looks like she is about to fall over

  6. Addition   16 years ago

    Michelle: "Been walking on water again, I see."

    Barack: "No, on tar, Baby."

    1. Beavis   16 years ago

      You said "Tar Baby" heh, heh, heh.

      1. Butthead   16 years ago

        heh heh....yeah....

        1. Fiscal Meth   16 years ago

          If you want freedom you gonna have to kill some crakca babies!

  7. JoshINHB   16 years ago

    Why is the lower half of obama's face morphing into an elephant trunk?

    What happended to his ear?
    And his hands?

    1. Kid E   16 years ago

      Well, he's been exposed to oil, duh.

  8. Jen   16 years ago

    His ears are shrinking again.

  9. Rahm Emmanuel?s kippah   16 years ago

    I've never understood the impression of Michelle O as glamorous, so I don't mind someone not making her look like some sort of goddess, but Bok really needs to learn how to draw since, outside of context, I'd never know who he meant to depict and might guess it was something from a Romero movie.

    1. ?   16 years ago

      Michelle? I thought it was Valerie Jarrett.

  10. Lamar   16 years ago

    I've seen better ASCII art.

  11. P Brooks   16 years ago

    Minimalism, in a big way.

  12. Since noone has said it yet   16 years ago

    Racist!

    1. Rush Limbaugh   16 years ago

      It hasn't been said untill I say it.

      REVERSE RACIST!!

  13. Lamar   16 years ago

    Bok might want to go back and Alan Smithee that drawing.

  14. sage   16 years ago

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

  15. Tomcat1066   16 years ago

    Meh. I've seen better from a kindergarten class.

  16. Byron   16 years ago

    Why is he picking up his front foot???

    And why was he taking baby steps up until that last one???

    1. Lamar   16 years ago

      "Why is he picking up his front foot??"

      Because he's an elitist snob!

    2. XYZ   16 years ago

      He is doing his cool guy pimp limp walk at first it appears and then when he gets attention he starts goose stepping like a good commie.

  17. TallDave   16 years ago

    Racist.

  21. expenses nike outlet   15 years ago

    I don't think this is all bad.
    That chart shows a gap of 10% of the GDP between costs and income. That simply cannot last and right now (looking at the income trace), we are 'starving the beast', which is the *only* way expenses will ever come down.

  22. blancpain replica watches   15 years ago

    which limited the actions of Congress and by extension had to be incorporated, the Second Amendment stated that RKBA was not to be infringed, and lacked detail as to by whom, and therefore applied to all government. By its very language it was already applicable to the states!
