SO MANY MINCING GAYS! That dead-chimp=Obama cartoon is just one part of a rich tapestry of shitty racist/homophobic/just-plain-weird Sean Delonas’ cartoons in the New York Post. [Gawker]

Yes, yes, the angry white bitters are pretty racist, surprise, and this impotent minority is just going to fume in the ugliest possible way for the next eight/twelve years, and it gets dull being outraged by the same dumb trash, but this cartoon was not scrawled on the back of a Cheetos box and submitted to World Net Daily, by mail — this was in a major metropolitan daily in New York City.

THE BEST TEDDY ROOSEVELT CARTOON YOU’LL READ TODAY: Katie Beaton might be our favorite web cartoonist since Chris Onstad. This one’s called “Theodore Roosevelt on the Presidency.” You might also enjoy this one, about the assassination of President James Garfield. The history sections are all awesome, the end.

We usually save the political cartoons for Fridays, but Jeff Danziger himself sent us this one today, and we are going to have terrible, terrible nightmares about Mark Penn tonight, again. [Danziger Cartoons]

Anthony Lewis reviewed Glenn Kessler’s Condiography The Confidante in yesterday’s New York Times Sunday Book Review, and, you know, blah, blah, blah. Whatever.
