Political sarcasm in drawings

This cartoon was done by Pat Bagley at the Salt Lake Tribune in Utah. While this particular cartoon might be a crack on fired-up talk show hosts, but it is also a fairly accurate representation about the feelings of a majority of the American people when it comes to the recently passed health care bill. This bill was passed without much thought to the ramifications of its institution or the feelings of the Americans who are affected by this mandate. A great majority of the Congressman who voted on this bill had never even read its contents. Don't they have a right to hold up a "very angry sign" or wear an "angry t-shirt"?

  This cartoon speaks to an issue that is very prevalent throughout American cities today. Crime rate and gang life is on the rise, and we are seemingly powerless to stop it. But, as this cartoon points out, there is no good end to living life as a gang member. Murder is common in these gangs, and if a gang war doesn't kill you then the cops will eventually find you and you will end up in prison. This cartoon was drawn by Matt Keefe at the Denver Post.

As a soon to be college graduate, this cartoon rings all too true. The job market continues to decline along with Wall Street, the housing market, the price of the dollar, and my hopes and dreams. When I came into college three years ago I thought I would have no trouble finding a job upon graduation, so I essentially put all my eggs in one basket, media experience. And now with the recent turmoil in the journalism field I am left with a great deal of media experience in a field that is shrinking rather than expanding.

By Daryl Cagle at MSNBC.com, this cartoon is very true and entertaining. Google is taking over the world. Every time I sign into my gmail account it is as if Google has conquered another faction of the Internet or the world to set up its plan for master manipulation. Don't get me wrong. I love Google and all the simplicities and luxuries that it offers me from checking my e-mail to writing a research paper, but it is seemingly becoming a runaway company that continues to increase in size as Uncle Sam and the world try to wade through the smoke.

Nate Beeler of the Washington Examiner penned this clever blog about the recent Toyota call back scandal. I love Toyotas and have driven one for years, but the recent problems constantly being uncovered in the news are outrageous, but now will be investigated and discover by NASA (ha!). The two companies have recently teamed up to create a software probe that will diagnose other problems which plague Toyotas cars in an attempt to save the company. But what does NASA have to do with the automobile industry? The answer is outlined clearly in this cartoon.
