[Fumesucker]

4. kick

Bravo Mr. President

[Little Star]

3. I wish he would have put half those elephants in

tea party garb.

But the point is still well depicted.

9. They ran on the ReTHUG ticket

so I have no problem with them.

5. Cartoonists have had a plethora of material the

last 4 years to keep them in business and also to make us laugh. But there is nothing the least bit funny anymore. What was once a decent, and I use that word sparingly, party is very much out of control by ego-driven men and some women. And from their actions, also very stupid. It is way past time to call for impeachment in the House for Republicans who are frankly, ill-educated or just don't give a hoot about the entire country. I am for a written and oral test to be given to wannabes when they run for office. I am tired of pigs-in-a-poke preaching to us that they will be what this country needs.

7. I think the Reds are quite keen to go over the fiscal cliff if they can't get exactly what they want

Some of them must realize that the situation is untenable without a revenue increase, and this way they figure they can blame the Democrats; "First they took us over the cliff, then they didn't reinstate the Bush tax cuts! AAAAAGGGHHH!"

8. A Prime example of why we need COMPLETE CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORM (CCFR)!!!

We need repress tatie democracy now, not these special interests owned politicians! Please spread the call for CCFR! Most of our problems can be better solved if our politicians are only answerable to us! Currently, we need NASCAR type suits w/the sponsors of each politician on them to keep track of who owns them!

10. They need

a couple of tri-cornered tea-bagger hats in there someplace.

[Electric Monk]

12. k&r

[Rosa Luxemburg]

13. throw the elephants over the fiscal cliiff

never to return

[siligut]

14. Needs fewer stars and more elephant shit

But other than that

[Brigid]

15. Yep, that pretty much sums it up.

I.gotta agree, though, that this whole thing is getting to the point where it is no longer funny.

[UtahLib]

16. They should no longer be allowed to use the noble elephant as their symbol.

As slimey as they are, we should just start referring to them as maggots or slugs.

17. Fiscal Cliff Toons
