You Can't Possibly Meme That!

Here is my collection of political cartoons.  Some are quite dated.

Joe Biden

This one was inspired by Joe Biden's "they're gonna put you back in chains" remark.  The cartoon spoofs the movie cover of Charlie Wilson's War with the implication that any ensuing race war might be known as Joe Biden's War.  It never came to that of course.


John Boehner

Here John Boehner attempts to rally some disheartened Scots to stick around until he has negotiated with the enemy.  The Scots do not seem particularly disposed to follow this mastermind of the orderly retreat.  The specific inspiration for this cartoon was Boehner suggestion it was time to have a discussion on guns after one of the mass shootings; however, it pretty much sums up his career as Speaker of the House.


Jeb Bush

Poor Jeb.  The chosen one that no one chose.  This was a facebook announcement making his formal entry into the race.  The caption under the video originally read "So many people could do so much better - if we fixed a few things."  As you can see, I did fix a few things.



Rachel Dolezal

This was a bizarre case of a white woman pretending to be black and actually heading a branch of the NAACP.  I really couldn't think of a better source for the advice in the cartoon.



Bruce Jenner (or what is left of him)

No, it isn't a woman at all.


Nelson Mandela

Easy to make, but it can be hard to find someone to wear it. 


Barack Obama

I made this one after Obama said that he thought he was "a pretty good president."  The cartoon imagines Obama in another career achieving equivalent results to his presidency.

This one is of Obama getting weepy at his gun control press conference.  Well Obama, you can have your binky, but not our guns.



Planned Parenthood

Fetus parts here! Get yer ice-cold fetus parts!

Seriously, the day these people are making little kicking motions about two or three feet off the ground will be the day justice is served.

Theater Shootings

Now this one is clearly in bad taste.
