Loosely based on a true story.

Autobiographical comics are awesome, if you have the nerve to publish them.

This is what I started with.

He had to go door to door to tell everyone he was a pederast.

This is a comic response to the assmiter pedophile cardinal who should not be in the Church, let alone a Church elder. Let me just say that the Catholic Church is definitely not a force for good in this world. And I’m not just bitter because they wouldn’t let me have crackers and juice.

Honestly! Beauty queens today are such little shits.

Yay! New political cartoon! This one bubbled up from the pit of my fury in response to Lauren Ashley being a general jackass. This post over at Pam’s House Blend sums things up quite nicely.

You can’t spew hate and then think you’re safe from criticism by hiding behind the Bible. Indeed, that may be the worst option.

Pandemics are funny!

This was my response to the media’s poor handling of the H1N1 influenza A thing going on right now. I think Randall’s comic sums it up a little better though. Also, this comic would have been much more relevant last Friday.

Jesus told me to hate you.

Religious fundamentalists make me angry. It’s not enough that the religion of Christianity dominates in Western society, but here in the United States, many Christians insist on playing the victim card. Their argument goes something like this:

If hate crime legislation passes, then we could be arrested for expressing our religious beliefs.

What they neglect to add is just what those expressions of religious belief are:

• Christian pharmacists refusing to do their jobs of filling prescriptions in the event the drug they are dispensing conflicts with their religious belief.
• Christian school board members who insist that creationism intelligent design be taught in schools as a legitimate science. (It’s not.)
• Christian politicians who insist that Congress swap out the Bill of Rights with the Ten Commandments.
• Muslim radicals who believe alcohol drinkers should be flogged and gays and lesbians be stoned to death.
• Fundamentalists who raise their children to believe that bullying another child is permissible if they believe that child is gay.

Their bullshit sob stories get played out over and over again, and these religious assholes continue to play the martyr every time a law is passed that gives equal rights or a ruling is made that challenges hate speech. They cry foul and hold up their holy books yelling out, “this is the law we should believe in!”

The people that piss me off are such a tiny minority, and yet they receive so much publicity that you’d think they were the only Christians that existed in America. It’s up to the rest of us to call these assholes on their bullshit.

I don't care, as long as my president is competent.

I remember hearing this question somewhere, either on the idiot box or on the inter-tubes. It struck me as an absolutely ridiculous question at first, but after I gave it some thought, I realized what kind of hierarchical mentality a question like that must have derived from.

Lets see, who do the people in power hate least? Themselves, obviously: rich, white, Christian men. The hate then piles on exponentially down the ranks to those folks who have the unlucky pleasure of being at “the Bottom.”

But who’s at the Bottom? Well, that’s why we have to ask asinine questions like this. Equality does not compute “at the top.”

Who's that in the closet?

There’s got to be more than one deeply closeted Republican senator floating somewhere in the halls of Congress. Who? Who could it be?

Well, we can say for certain that it’s not David Vitter.

What an awful shade of orange!

Southwest Airlines had a great debacle with a passenger whom the airline deemed “inappropriately dressed.” Check out the Feministing post here: http://feministing.com/archives/007683.html

I thought the whole thing was bullshit. As it turns out, Southwest Airlines has a history of sexist assholism. (I mean just look at what they were making their stewardesses wear back in the 1960s!) So I drew this little comic to express my opinion of Southwest Airlines. They suck.

[I lost the original Adobe Illustrator file for this comic when my laptop was stolen. I had to reconstruct a high-res image from the low-res web post. Remember kids: backup, backup backup!!!]

When he was asked by Australian Deputy Prime Minister Mark Vaile how the situation was in Iraq, Bush replied, “We’re kicking ass!” Yes, he is a complete clusterfuck and he really said that.
