1. The thing I don't like about these cartoons.
Edited on Tue Jun-23-09 04:35 AM by RandomThoughts
Is although they show what is being done, they also make the claim it can be done, or will be done. The cartoon actually supports the GOP and insurance companies by making the claim they have some power to do such a thing.

It would be a better cartoon if a few thousand doctors and nurses were next to them intervening. That would also show the ratio better.

2. LOL! I'd love to see your sketch for that
Cartoons don't make more than one point at a time, or else they aren't very effective. Of course those two actors have the power to kill the public option! It's happening now. Horsey's cknowledging the fact isn't the same as approving of it

4. I do not believe they will or can stop the public option.
The simplest reason why, if they did, you would see the cartoon I mentioned.

7. That one would have the Dems like Max Baucus
barring the door, keeping the thousands of doctors & nurses from charging into the room to save the patient.

6. Add this to one that shows that "Pro-Life"-er bombing Iraq.
