Cartoon: Iranian Election Demonstrations and Twitter

Thursday, June 18th, 2009

During the demonstrations following the most-likely rigged Iranian election results, and because of media and telecommunication blackouts, Twitter is being used as a powerful tool to get news out of the country.

The Trickle Down Effect – Cartoon

Sunday, September 28th, 2008

Well, we have enjoyed several years now of the ‘trickle down’ economic theory in action.
Something indeed does seem to be trickling down…

Racist Voters Cartoon – Obama / McCain US Elections 2008

Friday, September 26th, 2008

I am a strong Obama/Biden supporter in the upcoming elections and I would also like to think that I am a rational person. I also seem to have rather strong humanist inclinations so it comes as no surprise that I am quite stunned that at this point, that even Republicans are willing to consider voting for the nightmarish McCain/Palin ticket.

Neither of these latter candidates can be seriously taken into consideration for the offices they seek and entrusting them with the well-being of all life-forms on this planet (including our own children) seems foolish even for the most corrupt or party-brainwashed.

What also stuns me are the so-called democrats or ‘undecideds’ who will not be voting for Barack Obama for the sole reason that he is black. They claim it is because he is Muslim (which he is not – but which would be racist also), because he is somehow foreign (racist!), because he has a funny name (stupid and racist), because his dad was from Kenya (see above) or maybe because he has no experience (yeah, right!)…

I just had to draw this little cartoon to get my disappointment in such narrow-minded and simply stupid thinking from my chest:
