Would you like some schmaltz with that raw propaganda?

Benson's political cartoons and the gag reflex. I'm amazed that he hasn't yet drawn a cartoon of a winged Barry Goldwater, standing on a cloud and hurling lightning bolts at Sarah Palin.

Reminds of stuff one saw in the Soviet-era Pravda.

i find most political cartoonists to be amazingly insensitive and insulting.

That can't be Goldwater. No.....mushroom.....cloud. Can't have a Goldwater without a....... mushroom....cloud.

Couldn't have a winged Goldwater on a cloud anyway. He's not there! More likely Goldwater in hell drawing Palin down to him with a giant tractor beam.

Now Goldwater on the top of a mushroom cloud, waiving his cowboy hat. That would work!:)

i would like to think the image of the man with hat is rob krentz. but after seeing the rest of this man's work i doubt it

Reason is really starting to gall me with their attitude towards Palin - look at the link inside that article. They say Sarah is hardly "presidential" in firing back at the morons who tried to link her to the shootings.
