The Incredible Shrinking President
I watch and read various news and opinion sources. i.e. the NY Times, New York Post, Washington Post, Breitbart, AP online, The Guardian and many others. Some, I watch and read because I know it reflects my view of the world. Others, I read to get an opposing point of view. From what I read and see, it looks to me like the entire rational world is seeing trump for what he is. To find out what the irrational minority is fretting about, I watch Fox News Channel. Fox uses two si

Memorial Day
This occurred to me in 2016, that the Republican Party was about to die and split apart because of so many years of hatred, bigotry and a loathsome attitude toward non-whites, non-Christians, females, Democrats and liberals. Then I realized in horror that for the party to die, it had to take the United States of America with it. We’re on the way.

The Art Part
I have a very low boredom threshold, so I like to play around with different ways to render a cartoon. Once I have my idea, I pretty much draw every cartoon the same way on tracing paper, but rendering it is my personal playground.

Well, OK. He hasn’t made a major fuckup. Maybe some minor ones, like saying out loud that he thinks Israel isn’t part of the Mideast. But what I want to know is what did he do, or say, that pissed off Melania to the point that she slapped his hand away from hers twice. I can think of a hundred things, but what are the alternative facts? I have it! He had been eating spareribs and his hands were greasy. Yeah, that must be it.

“Across the Atlantic Sea, and I’m a genius genius. I believe in God and I believe that God believes in Claude, that’s me,” goes the lyrics to a song in the musical “Hair.” I don’t know what God believes in, but the New Testament God doesn’t believe in ISIS, or terrorism, or killing innocent people in his name. The New Testament God is love. The Old Testament God is another matter.
My brother-in-law took on the challenge of reading the entire Bible cover to cover. When he fi
