Cartoon Saturday


Did you ever have one of those weeks when it seemed as if Saturday would never get here? Welcome to Exhibit A.

Japan's upper chamber of Parliament has abandoned a constitutional policy of pacifism, approving controversial bills allowing the country's military to engage in overseas combat in limited circumstances; Russia is continuing its military buildup in Syria, sending several fighter jets to that country in addition to its rapid buildup of other forces over the past week; children are suffering alcohol poisoning in increasing numbers by ingesting hand sanitizer in an attempt to get high;  top aides for GOP presidential wannabes Marco Rubio and Rand Paul apparently got into a bar fight; and the GOP is preparing once again to shut down the federal government in an attempt to blackmail the administration into accepting its demands.

The tsunami of stupid continues to crash over the nation's capital, meaning that we need the cartoons more than ever. This week, our collection of theme cartoons deals with real estate ... in prehistoric times ...

There goes the neighborhood ...


A good real estate agent knows how to stress the good selling points ...


Not everyone feels the need to keep up with the Flintstones ...


The drive to remodel is as old as humankind ...


The good customer knows what he (or she) wants ...


There was a time when a man cave really was a ... well ... you know ...


And some men still really want them ...


Turning to other topics, don't you wish it really worked this way? ...


School is back in session, and people are lining up to be offended by something their child is learning ...


And if you've been watching the current political circus, you know what the GOP hears the American people saying ...


Just another week and a half to go and we'll have escaped September ... and it wasn't all that long ago that we looked forward to September to rescue us from August. Oy.

Have a good day and a great weekend. I'll see you back here again tomorrow for our autumn-themed Poetry Sunday.

More thoughts then.

  3. "top aides for GOP..."
    It looked like a half hearted punch that might have been done to get some publicity for both the candidates.

  4. I like your cartoon of what politicians hear! And I think I know why I was summoned to jury duty.
