Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal contemplates the future for his state, ...umm, the Republican party, ...umm, his own future run for presidential office. He's considering refusing a portion of Obama administration's stimulus money to support unemployment rosters in Louisiana for fear of increasing unemployment lines there, then having to continue funding the program after stimulus money ends. He's often considered a leading Republican candidate to run for President, he denies this. It's probably a wise position ...his platform's kinda shaky, putting politics before the needs of the people of Louisiana.

NOTE: We'll update this post as we find out more - but we still like the cartoon, so we'll probably keep it here as an archive.

Karl Rove - In Over His Head?

Will the main political strategist of the Bush/Cheney administration, now subpoenaed by Congress the second time, sleep with the fishes after he testifies? We may never know. He could be water boarded behind closed doors - that should force him to talk! And, as we all know, it's perfectly legal, (George W. Bush's attorneys told him so), ...it's not even torture.

Just Not Enough Rich People Left

Tax loopholes, deductions, the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMY), damn! They're destroying my fund raising base, and a couple making just $65,000 a year is just not gonna cut it. They don't even have enough money to pay their mortgage, how are THEY gonna fund my campaign next time around? I need big, affluent, rich ...Republicans!

In Search Of Campaign Financing Ms. Bachmann?

Michele Bachmann (R-MN), interviewed regarding her understanding of who pays taxes, who exactly are 'the rich' as defined by a non-conservitive, non-republican, (that would be a 'democrat', Barack Obama, of course), and dogs, hers, that ran away, and her pooch brooch. The common element? Michele Bachmann. She, does not want those couples making $65,000 to get the same tax breaks as the truly wealthy, and end up paying less federal tax. It's okay for the rich and corporations to loop-hole out of paying, but apparently not the median group.

View the cartoon a second time - and watch the doggy brooch.

Here's the Hufffington Post Link with an audio clip of the original interview.

We like to try new things in cartoon animation - like the 'slideshow comic strip', and visual gags running separately in the strip - we don't know of any other cartoonist using this semi-animated  strip format. Do you? Let us know. 

Thanks,

"Today, the president faced few difficult questions - save for the young woman in the striped sweater who suggested that his Cabinet appointees are "not trustworthy,'' because they "can't handle... their own taxes,'' and who also suggested that Obama go have a drink with FOX News' Sean Hannity, leading Obama to laugh that off with: "I'm always good for a beer.''
