It's a match made in Montgomery!
Judiciary Missing Link Roy Moore has
the Yellowhammer State looking back with mixed feelings at its 19th
Century salad days (and you know who was in the field picking the
greens, right? because old times there are not forgotten?) on the
topic of gay rights – on which topic Moore is obviously in the
constitutional wrong, but, again, that's sort of a tradition there. A
tradition, in fact, to which perhaps only South Carolina can claim
greater pride of place. My sympathies to my friends who live there
and have to deal with it.
And I still think that toons comparing
Jon Stewart and Brian Williams really don't understand why either one
of them had a steady job for so many years.
Whatever. Today's toons were selected
from among the week's offerings at McClatchy
DC, Cartoon Movement,
Go Comics, Politico's
Cartoon Gallery, Daryl
Cagle's Political Cartoons, About.com,
and other fine sources of toony goodness.

p3 World Toon Review: Brian
Gable (Canada),
I understand and respect why
Sen. Elizabeth Warren isn't going to run for president next year, but
Daryl
Cagle is basically correct.
It's an Ann Telnaes twofer!
First the very special way that Alabama
survives Valentine's Day, and second, the
people who know the story best explain why Washington journalists
didn't exactly comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable at
the onset of Bush the Younger's Iraq War.
Mark Fiore narrowly misses out
on a Convergence certificate
by introducing the
best pun of the week.

faux-holiday is over.

sympathy for Brian
Williams, patsy.

magical wish.
The Comic Strip Curmudgeon goes
to Hi and Lois to discover
the true meaning of

complicated tribute
to Sparky.
Mrrrrph?: In Simon Tofield's "TV
Dinner" (2008), Simon's cat teaches
a lesson about social media, digital media, and hungry cats.
