There are plenty other historical atrocities the right wing hasn't yet abused in their pursuit of headlines (oops i mean political commentary). Kinda tired of them using slavery and Nazis over and over again. There are plenty of black and/or jewish republicans who I'm sure don't appreciate that shit.

based on panel 2 above, dude has never held an actual baby. hooking your thumb around the waistband and the remaining fingers into the anus is not best practices.

Multiple-Pulitzer Prize winner Michael Ramirez!
― drinkin a carton of peace juice (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Tuesday, 6 April 2010 15:34 (fourteen years ago) link
In September 2007, the Columbus Dispatch published a Ramirez cartoon depicting Iran as a sewer (labeled with the word "extremism"), with cockroaches spreading from it over Iraq, Afghanistan, and other countries of the middle east. Some commenters compared this with characterisations both of Jews in pre-Holocaust Germany and Rwandan Tutsis before the 1994 genocide.[1]
"If I don't get at least one phone call a day that says I'm a moron, I'm not doing my job," Ramirez says of his penchant for sparking controversy with his cartoons.

2010 loser looks slightly less sad than 1950 winner. that's something to be happy about.
― peter in montreal, Friday, 9 April 2010 15:16 (fourteen years ago) link
my first thought was that, yep, this guy is just a straight up asshole, but then i saw the expression on the face of the "winner" in 1950 and i realized that this is a subtle satirization of american values. ramirez is, in fact, a brilliant fifth columnist.

I probably just missed it. Last week I got my unemployment and yeah it came with pre-paid mortgage for a nice house so i had to move. Luckily I was able to trade my Toyota with bad tires for a new hybrid car at the DOL. j/k

OK, I don't get much exposure to Day By Day except here and at lefty blogs trying in vain to deflect its merciless rain of laser-guided Truth Bombs, but am I correct in assuming the following things:
1. Dude has a huge, glaring, and hilariously predictable projection problem, and whenever a right-wing figure is caught with his dick in the cookie jar his immediate reaction is OH YEAH WELL DEMOCRATS NYAH. Like the strip club and dot-matrix printer strips above- blanket accusations of outrageous wrongdoing with no actual evidence to back them up, in service of an argument that boils down to "whatever we're doing, they're doing a thousand times worse".
2. Based on the "violence from the left" line in the last comic, I assume that the improbably-proportioned woman is the token Enlightened Liberal whose sole function is to concern-troll about how everything would be so much better if all leftists voted in lockstep with their wise and benevolent Republican masters, like how Glenn Renolds pretends to be an unaffiliated libertarian? (And then, I assume, has hot hot PG-13 sexxxytimes with our studly author surrogate, which raises some disturbing questions?) Or was the "violence from the left" line just a shitty joke about her position in the panel, and if so, does that make it better or worse?

She's supposed to be the progressive, who's married to the dude, who's a conservative. His personality is "sees the best in people", explaining why a conservative would have anything to do with a progressive. So the gag is supposed to be that she's gonna whack him if he doesn't stop printing out stuff. That's actually quite a coherent punchline for Day By Day.
