Aug 27 The politics of fearPosted by jbrenneman | 08/27/08  The key word in this election appears to be fear. One guy tells you how the world will fall apart if you vote for his opponent while the other tells you that we shouldn't fear change. The one thing I fear is an uninformed voter. No matter who you vote for please look past the rhetoric and think before you push the button, pull the lever or put the slip of paper in the box. Fear should not be the reason you vote or don't vote... CATEGORY: General Society

If Russia was that upset about the amount of attention that China is getting did they really need to start blowing up things... CATEGORY: General Society

It doesn't hurt to hope! They appear to be attempting to improve their image in the world as well as the lives of at least some of their citizens. Time will tell however if these improvements will last when the Olympics are over, but for now at least it's a start... CATEGORY: General Society

I on the other hand believe it is much more simplier than that. Names in a hat or on a dart board is all you need. Once you've made your choice then the fun begins and four to eight years later you are either clebrating the wisdom of your decision or hiding your face in shame. Politics can be fun if the world isn't destroyed in the process... CATEGORY: General Society

When you think you have it all figured out and are one hundred percent certain of its outcome the results may surprise you. Although the Media and a great deal of voters believe that Barrack Obama is going to be the next President history has a way of proving even the most informed of us completly wrong...

TAGS: cartoon, obama, mccain, election, candidates Jul 22 Obamas world tour08Posted by jbrenneman | 07/22/08  Barrack Obamas debut on the world stage has me pondering this, after eight years of a man who can bairly pronounce his own name is the world truly ready for an articulate President who if anything pronounces words too correctly? The rest of the planet is so accustomed to a bumbling fool that the prospect of a U.S President that can pronounce the names of their countries correctly might cause them to lay down their arms and actually begin to negotiate just because he appears to show respect for those who are different from him. Then again I'm just a cartoonist in search of a cheap laugh, but it's a thought... CATEGORY: General Society

OutburstsThe best and most concise thing to say about myself is that I'm curious. The world is a big scary and complicated place and I believe someone has to make as much fun of it as possible. I'll be the first to admit that the moment I think I know everthing about something is the moment I'll know the least. My goal is to entertain and to make people think.SubscribeEmail Archives |
