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 *).

Bellicose Up To the Bar, Boys

War on Poverty. War On Drugs, War On Obesity, War On Fuel Consumption, War On Illiteracy, we're obsessed with war in this country. How about a War on Politicians Who Want to Solve Every Problem By Making War On It? Or better yet, how about a War On War?

It's the "macho" solution to everything. Women need to have a "real" say... free of gender bias. Hillary was the last good chance. (IMO of course)

John... the cartoon says it all!

Jean, you are so right. Obama was the media darling but Hillary was the real thing. Sad day when the USA exchange gold for glitter.

At the last count there was something like a dozen or more entirely self-enclosed and self-sufficient military bases built rapidly under contract to house our troops in Iraq. All of them contain PXs and the American fast-food concessions beloved by our boys when they are back home. The result of which is that those of our kids who are not off patrolling or policing are back at the base watching pornos, smoking pot, or gorging themselves on American junk food and growing fat. And who does this profit? Dick Cheney’s Halliburton and all the pals of Halliburton who support the military/industrial/fast food complex.

Just goes to show that capitalism can be right up there with communism when it comes to internal corruption. Who can poke a stick at China then?

And the CIA, prof, who makes sure there's a steady supply of blow from Afghanistan.

God that's awful. Why doesn't someone do or say something?

They do. It's called a national election, and some of us old fools have our fingers crossed.
