I do not even notice who posts these; but i do enjoy seeing them, even before i became a posting member. Some of these cartoonists i had been familiar with before, and some i had sought out on search engines, but some are from fellows and sources that were completely unknown to me. [The Toles toon almost never fully downloads] If you have explained how you find and post these, i would like to know. Doonesbury has been syndicated for a lifetime, Luckovich has won his Pulitzer(s), Danziger, and Bennett are often remarkably sharp and accurate. The posting of these are not just entertaining, it is a service rendered. Thank you.

On another train of thought...it seems to me, that beyond the preponderance, the good cartoons are of a certain political spirit and direction. The party of Romney, gwbjr, Cantor, Issa, et alia does not produce comedy well. I have maintained, that for something to be funny, it must be true. I perhaps would like to start a thread on that idea.
