It's been another "OY!" of a week, hasn't it?
A January 6th Capitol rioter who said she'd never go to jail because she had "blonde hair white skin a great job a great future" and deserved a pardon from Der Furor has been sentenced to 60 days in jail; the 17-year-old son of Glenn Youngkin, the Republican winner of the Virginia governor's race who ran on an insistence on "election integrity," attempted to vote twice, despite being underage; in a late-night vote, the House passed President Biden's $1 trillion Infrastructure and Jobs bill, which now goes to the White House for signature - a huge legislative achievement despite Republican opposition and Democratic infighting; a juror in the murder trial of Kyle Rittenhouse has been dismissed for making a joke about Jacob Blake, the Black man whose shooting by police sparked the protests during which Rittenhouse shot and killed two protesters; and in Colorado, a man has been arrested after he set his mother's house on fire while using a blowtorch to get rid of cobwebs.
The election is over, but the bumper crop of election-related cartoons is too good to pass up ...
Some people can make the best of a bad situation ...
Isn't this just how it works? ...
The GOP made big gains, indicating a desire by many voters to turn their clocks back more than an hour this month ...
I guess it pays to grease both sets of palms ...
The app I need in election years ...
It would be nice if it worked, wouldn't it? ...
The advantage clowns have in election years ...
This is a campaign promise I wish they'd all fulfill ...
It's not just in election years, but I can understand the confusion ...
They don't ...
And that's it for the first Cartoon Saturday of the month ... I hope it helped you process the results of the election.
Have a good day and a great weekend, and come back tomorrow for Musical Sunday, when Abba weighs in on the solution to Congressional budget problems. More thoughts then.
