editorial cartoon update

Here is the last week of cartoons.
Obama's earmarks. It's not the most intelligent cartoon in the world, but it makes me laugh.
It's amazing what some developers will try to pull.
I like this image, but I could have executed the drawing better. Still, it's a good cartoon.
Whenever I draw a cartoon about stem cell research I get a bunch of complaints, mostly from people who complain that I don't specify that I'm talking about EMBRYONIC stem cell research. Folks also complained that there was no ban on stem cell research, just restrictions on using federal dollars for funding.

I understand those complaints, but they miss the larger points about the damage that the Bush administration did to scientific research. As to the point about not using the word EMBRYONIC, (1) it's a long word that doesn't fit in cartoons (2) why would I draw a cartoon about plain old uncontroversial stem cell research.
State Farm has dumped Florida home insurance policy holders. Those policy holders have been forced to Citizens Property Insurance which is paid for by Florida property tax payers.

Maybe you've lost your touch. Why don't you get a respectable job like a Fire Fighter so you can actually help society instead of printing your garbage.

Why are you making fun of the firefighters they are good people? Who do you call when you need help?
