The flag has a golden elephant squatting on it. Would that be desecrating it or defecating on it?

I don't know what the significance of 20 ("XX&quot is. Is he a secret Dos Equis drinker?

"You just called 47% of the voters deadbeats for not paying Income Taxes.
Then you remember that YOU don't pay any either.

That's more than awkward."

Are white southerners that won't consider voting for Obama and are deep in Romney's corner. May be those people finally have gotten hit up side the head hard enough for them to recognize that republicans have been fucking them for decades.

If those people weren't constantly bombarded by Right Wing crap they would not think the way they do.

But I think what will happen is these hard core Social Republicans will just skip the Presidential part of the ballot and vote for the congresscritter of their dreams. Otherwise, their alternative, stay home and don't vote.

I was going with the "mittoinette" epithet. And, now Cagle has come out with it!

But true enough, now the Onion is going out of business because they can't come up with satire that's more absurd than REALITY.

I was calling mitt "mittoinette" earlier in the day and then I saw where Cagle whipped up a 'toon about him.

Here's another from Cagle..
