New month, new Ass Clowns.
As always, there are plenty of worthwhile candidates, and as always, it hurts to have to single out a single one, but it has to be done, and I'm up to the challenge.
Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Readers, with the usual flatulent blare of trumpets, we announce
The Right-Cheek Ass Clown for September, 2017
Senator Ted Cruz (R, Tx)
This is the fifth Ass Clown Award presented to Senator Cruz, but it's the first that he's earned on his own. The previous four awards have been shared with Ben Carson (March, 2015), the GOP Presidential Candidates (June, 2015), Mike Huckabee (September, 2015), and Donald Trump (March, 2016).
Senator Cruz has richly earned an award of his own on the basis of his stupendous level of hypocrisy in advocating for disaster relief for areas of Texas devastated by Hurricane Harvey when he voted against disaster relief for areas of the east coast hammered by Hurricane Sandy.
For his world-class political and economic hypocrisy in requesting the federal aid for his state that he would have denied to others, Senator Ted Cruz is presented his own award, and named the Right-Cheek Ass Clown for September, 2017.
It's said that politics makes strange bedfellow. Senator Cruz and his like are the strangest of all.
Have a good day. More thoughts tomorrow on Cartoon Saturday.

We're overwhelmed with ass clowns lately.
Yeah, what she (Angel) said!
He deserves the honour.
I think he could win the award every time.
Kn my opinion, he's the whole ass.
A worthy recipient. I'm always interested to see your latest choice. There are far too many candidates!
Enjoy your time off; you deserve it.
