The Girls of November -- Sandpoint Reader -- 07-19-07


* Artist's Note: I hate this cartoon. The idea was that while these ludicrous candidates acquire little jaunty women to promote their causes, they're degrading the elective (and democratic) process to a level I didn't know existed. Therefore, I decided to make a physical representation of the 2008 election as a whole; and, of course, she was a dried up prostitute. I don't know if I like the idea, but I do know that I freakin' hate the art. I think I was in a hurry to get to a party or something. I don't know.

Oh no I didn't...



Drawn in early 2007 in the Portland, Oregon area, this piece is pretty self-explanatory.

An amazingly subtle comment on right-wing patriotism.



This was drawn sometime in 2005, and based on the artist's mis-hearing of an NPR program. He was brushing his teeth and half-listening to the radio in another room when he could have sworn he heard someone say "Donkey shit jackass he-haw..." When he put down his toothbrush and moved closer to the set he realized it was actually President George W. Bush. He figured that was enough to do a page on. Which he did. (This was never published anywhere.)

An amazingly subtle comment on the religious right.



This one was drawn sometime in 2004 for an abortive freelance article on the Christian fundamentalist group "Christian Exodus", which was trying to get its followers to move en masse to South Carolina where they would inflitrate state government and turn it into a Christian stronghold. The article was actually written by author Ben Olson (and accompanied by more vulture drawings by me), but was rejected by Mother Jones, The Nation, and Rolling Stone.
