Cartoons, cartoons, cartoons.... John Crowther's Cartoon Odyssey

I think of it as The Fool's Journey. I've been asked who the "fool" is. It's me, but in the classical sense of the court jester. Only the fool was allowed to tell the king of his follies. All cartoons are available as prints or originals, framed or unframed, through my website or e-mail. For mugs, t-shirts, and other products visit my gift shop at www.zazzle.com/jcrowtherart* (be sure to include the *).

The Bright Side

The more things change the more they stay the same, as the old saying goes. The passion for Homeland Security is not a new thing. During World War II, when I was not yet 5 and my family was summering on Nantucket Island, my dad was taking 8mm movies of my older brother and me on the beach (my younger brother hadn't been born yet). A Coast Guard patrol came along and confiscated the camera. Later my dad got it back. I still have that small reel somewhere, packed away among nearly forgotten "treasures." The censor's clearance is stamped all over it.

It's a strategy that works... keep the populace confused afraid and demoralised and they'll be eating out of your hand. It's high time to bite the hand that feeds such nonsense.

Another great cartoon John... (ain't it the truth)... every ill on the planet seems to be either the result of global warming or terrorism!

Not touching this one except to say that this is a very funny cartoon, John C, too tired to think of politics (grin)
