1. Love it how their fake clueless cartoonist ...
...tries to include a weeping Statue of Liberty wherever and whenever possible!

Also, I'm glad they're making fun of the alter-ego-in-the-right-hand-corner thing--why do some political cartoonists still feel that's not an unnecessary distraction?

2. I still think that Mallard Filmore's humor is worse.

3. I don't get it, are these supposed to be a parody of conservative cartoons
they're not funny at all, and he seems obsessed with death. He is equating democrats with terrorists? I can see if he is doing a parody of conservative talking points, but if he is serious then it is just another lame and uninspired attack on dems. Why is he showing a teenaged girl being attacked? Why are all the people dead on the football field? I can't figure out the point of that one at all...

4. It's the Onion...
...and it's all satire.

5. I am 99% sure the cartoonist is kidding
The weeping Statue of Liberty is a dead giveaway. Unless this is a post showcasing the satire, not misunderstanding it. Honestly, sometimes these days it's hard to tell the difference... :D
