2. KnR for the 'toons!

[nxylas]

3. The first one doesn't really work, though

It seems to assume that the poor don't get calls from debt collectors, which...hasn't been my experience.

4. Thanks for those!

[A Simple Game]

5. Thanks for the toons. n/t

[obxhead]

6. The last one is awesome.

One day when we leave Afghanistan, probably after 2 more Presidents, the country can begin to actually work through who will lead it.

7. Shouldn't the one with Obama being towed in the Economy Cab...

.... have the words "GOP obstruction" in the steam coming from the defunct engine?

[ellisonz]

8. The would be a good addition...

...but I think the cartoon as is adequately represents the reaction of many to such presidential optimism.

9. K&R

10. Hope -- scratch that -- killed a guy

That's my favorite. I just have a hard time understanding conservative, nationalistic Democrats. How is it helpful to argue that we're more effective than GOP militarily? I need a little more peace in my left wing.
