Bob, I just have to say I disagree with what the character in the cartoon is saying, but agree with what you've written in the cartoon. :)
And I have to say I *think* I have to disagree with what Kent wrote. But love the sentiment anyway!
See how the Repugnicans confuse us? I think this represents their abilty to conflate issues and present "up or down" thinking.

What a political ice breaker this cartoon represents! My first laugh out loud moment of the day!
Orwell got it all right with 1984. My lack of fluency in doublespeak, the political equivalent of Newspeak, as demonstrated in this wonderful cartoon, often leaves me utterly confounded.
Well, Republicans were always a little dyslexic vis-a-vis fiction and reality. Remember Dan Quayle slamming Murphy Brown?
Marco mentioned Dan Quayle. Dan should be the only person in America who is delighted with McCain's selection of Sarah Palin!
