I wondered where Rall has been.

Guess he beat that child porn rap after all.

I seem to recall a story floating around, perhaps published in a right wing rag, in the midst of a fundraiser, quoting unnamed sources and other impeachable sources with axes to grind.


Those stories should be taken seriously, right?

  America Gone Wild: Cartoons by Ted Rall
 Ted Rall by Ted Rall

Ted Rall writes for a generation unjustly maligned as a pack of lazy slackers. He voices Generation X’s frustration and resentment at the excesses of the baby boomers who’ve left a spent America in their mammoth wake. Ted’s irreverent attitude and deft use of satire combine to make his work as fun to read as it is thought-provoking. And Ted’s ability to connect with current culture gives his writing an of-the-moment perspective that is edgy and sharp.

Let me see.... 'thought provoking?'

How is it necessary for anyone to write humor that is 'thought provoking' when the entire nation seems to have fallen into the childish thought process that, "mom, Johnny is doing it so shouldn't I?"

This whole get out the vote thing is nothing more than the same tactics that "time share" sales people use.   Come and get a free vacation while we brow beat you into buying a time share.  There are very few out there 'thinking' about any thing.

The best that the masses seem to be able to do in that arena is 'equate.'    My buddy is voting this way and I really like my buddy so I will vote that way too.  or.... Wow, Katie Couric is all for Obama and I really like her show so............

He is funny.

Ann Colter is more funny and more tastefull than Ted Rall  but she doesn't have his humility.
