1. Our liberal cartoonists are so excellent!

[pinboy3niner]

2. +100!

[uponit7771]

6. + 1

[Octafish]

11. All the good ones are...

...Liberals.

[LiberalLovinLug]

24. As are most artists, writers, actors, musicians...

Funny how those who spend their lives open and curious about the world, those who actually spend time observing the world around them in order to get source material to use in their professions,...most always end up liberal minded.

[obxhead]

3. K&R

[Tikki]

4. This brings on tears.. 30 years my husband worked, never had an alarm set later than 5:00am...

For 12 of those years it was set at 2:30am for up and out for a commute. He still managed to
coach the young one's sports and build projects around our home.

No one who knows him ever asks why he retired at age 55.

14. My dear Tikki...

[Tikki]

15. CAPeggy...the benefit was that living in SoCal he most often woke up to nice weather...

and for 18 of those years he only had to drive 8 miles or so.

Retirement sure has been nice for us...I will fight to keep
the repugs from taking all he worked for away.


Tikki

[CaliforniaPeggy]

18. I AM glad to hear that, my dear Tikki...

[malthaussen]

19. Wow, the American Dream!

What this country does to the people who actually work for a living is abominable.

5. I just LOVE it when the investor class talks about "risk"

Since they really have no acquaintance with it.

[littlemissmartypants]

7. I don't know

one too many beers on the green in the golf cart...it's hard. Love the post thank you!

[valerief]

9. "Do I buy one jet or two jets this year?"

They risk only being able to afford one.

For those less well-off:

"Do I vacation in Europe or China this year or Europe AND China this year?"

They risk only being able to afford one vacation spot.

[fasttense]

20. And what about the awful risk that there wont be anyone around to help you tie up your yacht

when you finally find an open pier.

Romney can't help everyone who wants to be captain of their yacht.

[hifiguy]

8. Kick 'n' rec.

Eat the rich, the poor are tough and stringy!

[HopeHoops]

10. That's way too close to the truth. Our alarm goes off before 5.

[Jim Lane]

16. I used to set an alarm, back when I had a job.

I usually don't get into this comparison-of-misery game but the OP reminded me of what life was like when I was a wage slave. I miss it.

[HopeHoops]

21. My wife's the wage slave at the moment, and health insurance is a major part of that.

It's amazing how much a few days in the hospital costs, especially when they keep throwing me into CT and MRI tubes.

[Egalitarian Thug]

12. K&R. Life in Work Camp America. n/t

[wakemewhenitsover]

13. Fantastic! n/t

[WillyT]

17. Most Excellent !!! - K & R !!!

[Mister K]

22. This is utter bullshit

If you take a Capital Gains loss, you can write it off on your taxes ($3,000 a year cap).

You cannot write off lost wages on your taxes.

[LiberalLovinLug]

23. Bloody Brilliant!

Kick for the toon.
