The editorial cartoonist is to the left of the paper he or she is published in.

I think it has to do with the artistic mind. They are by nature observers. And when you take the time to actually study and look at issues and the people who are in control, you naturally move to the left in your thinking.

The same is true in most every creative endeavor like music and acting.

And the more ignorant you are, the more of a right wing dupe you are.

They say they are against government wasteful spending and for small government in general...

What could be Bigger Government than those new Republican created and supported incredibly expensive and expansive government abuses of power and violations of our Constitution?

Where's the tea party on that one? Hello?

It's no wonder Romney thinks that we don't need any more firemen.

There are way too many cartoon firemen in this country.
