Okay. Putin and Berlusconi holding hands, Gadhafi and his buxom nurse, a naked Sarkozy... Some actual thought was put into this one.

It borders on clever. It flirts with well-done. It goes on the refrigerator door.

  Yep, take off those unnecessary arrows, and I think we've got an NEA grant in the works.

    Seriously, I hate silly labels and arrows in political cartoons. Make the faces and characteristics of the World Leaders more detailed, over embellished, etc. and you wouldn't have to label them.

      Now, now. This is America, where we just found out that no one knows where Qatar is.
      
      It is, of course, the tiny asteroid where the Little Prince lives. Where they plan to put the soccer fields is anyone's guess.

        These cartoonists today... I bet a lot of them don't even have passports!

Hey, a non-sucky Friday funny. I must have overslept; it's 2012 and the world is about to end.

I'm in utter shock Bok. Congratulations on your first Friday Funny.

  "An inconvenient truth" with the scientist holding the candle underneath the thermometer wasn't bad. The arrows in this one kind of insult my intelligence.

    That's not funny, I'm a scientist!

This post has more labels than a Kelly cartoon.
1. Matt Felch 15 years ago
  
  But when Kelly does it, its making fun of comics like this that do it.
  
  Er, I think.. Maybe Kelly just isn't funny, and we're supposed to think he's making parodies....

Good morning, everyone.

  Obama has no problem with this guy.

    Let me be clear, you will still be able to read your Wikileaks...
Joe M 15 years ago

Yeah, not bad. We need the entire worldwide media establishment in the picture though.

Best FF so far? Great job on the caricatures, the labels aren't even necessary.

They forgot to include Rep. Peter King (R-NY) who wants to lock the Wikileaks people up in Guantanomo Bay.
1. DAnna 15 years ago
  
  ....and Hillary, Holder...plus most of congress.
2. Bucky 15 years ago
  
  don't you see. we're just not important on the world stage. hence, we (U.S.) don't appear ANYWHERE. even in a sucky little editorial cartoon.
robc 15 years ago

Best in a while.

Todays xkcd was better and relates to postings from yesterday.

  bahahahah, excellent
robc 15 years ago

Also, saw the following yesterday and thought it would be good for posting during Fridays Funnies. Unlike most OOTS, no need to understand the characters or plotline, its pretty self explanatory. Order of the Stick.

For some reason, I figured that discussion would amuse some folks here.
robc 15 years ago

Just realized that 2/3rds of the online comics I follow involve stick figures.

Huh.

  When you're looking for something funny, it should be no surprise that "funny" is more important than "beautiful".

Heh. Not bad.

Why is Richard Nixon mad at Assange AND holding hands with Putin?

Where is Newt Gingrich?

  where is Waldo? (sorry, I had to... I'll go stand in the corner now...)
sage 15 years ago

He at least needed to put the arrow over the Saudi King. Without it, I would have thought it was a Saudi prince about to sodomize Assange with that stick.
sage 15 years ago

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
squarooticus 15 years ago

This one's actually kind of good. Bravo.

Wouldn't Assange blend in with the white background so there would only be an empty suit running ? la the Invisible Man...?
Eric Gisin 15 years ago

It would be funny if Assange ended up as a refugee in Cuba or Venezuala.
El Duderino 15 years ago

My favorite description yet:

"Asange is the type of Dbag that would answer the door to his apartment wearing a turtleneck and nothing else."

I paraphrased cause I cant remember the actual quote cause I am high and drunk... so pllplplpplllfff.... but it was stated by Greg Gutfeld on Red Eye... a god show with a lot of leg.
1. El Duderino 15 years ago
  
  GOOD show with a lot of leg... it has very little to do with god... I promise.

Una rosa amada.

Regalo el
candor cuando
el t?mido
viento escucha
la vida del
nuevo sonido,
como gotas
de lluvia en
el canto del sol.

Pr?s des

inventent une
