		<title>An end to new editorial cartoons &#8230; for now</title>
		<description><![CDATA[From this week’s Weekly Editorial Cartoon E-mail: I’m afraid I’ve got some bad news this week: This will be the last Weekly Editorial Cartoon E-mail, at least for a while. After much soul-searching, I’ve decided it’s time to take an extended sabbatical from editorial cartooning. Several factors went into this decision, from financial (it was [...]]]></description>

		<title>From abomination to Obamanation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With overwhelming voice, Americans have voted to move beyond the dark times of the past eight years. “Yes We Did.” Now, if the nation can just survive the next two months, 17 days, 20 hours, 1 minute and 50 seconds. (Quick note: I’ll be out of town so no new cartoon next week. Toons resume [...]]]></description>

		<title>GOP back on the brink</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With less than a week until Election Day, it’s starting to look more and more likely that the GOP will be cast “Back to the Wilderness” by voters. But beware: The last time Republicans were banished, they came back strong, first with their “Contract With America,” then with a scary brand of neoconservatism implanted on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just thirteen days until United States citizens face “The Choice” (though early ballots are already in the mail). Have you made yours? Links: Buy a hand-signed, 11×14 print of this cartoon &#124; On the main site: “The Choice” [Archive No. 0836]]]></description>

		<title>A rerun? Really?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yes, I’m sorry, but I had to dig into the archive this week. As much as I hate to go with a rerun this close to the election, I’m in the middle of grad school midterms and, well, the history of the Vietnam War trumps everything for a few days. I’ll return to Election 2008 [...]]]></description>

		<title>That comment</title>
		<description><![CDATA[“That one?” No, I don’t think John McCain had any racial intent when he oddly referred to Barack Obama as “that one” during last night’s debate. But it was dismissive and a poor choice of words, especially in light of McCain’s nasty anti-Obama ad, “The One,” from earlier this year. In debates, it’s often the [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s the war economy, stupids</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I understand that deregulation, greed and mismanagement are major factors in the current economic crisis. But why are so few of the “experts” talking about a war, fought on credit, that’s already cost hundreds of billions — and that some believe will have a total economic impact of more than $3 TRILLION? It’s insane. This [...]]]></description>

		<title>Chaos in perspective</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It’s not the actual destruction that makes us fear terrorists, it’s the chaos they introduce into the system. So imagine what the rest of the world thinks of the “First-World Terrorist,” who, driven by a radical faith in greed, lays waste to financial markets and threatens prosperity everywhere. Too bad Bush and his cronies didn’t [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tough to take for Hillary</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sarah Palin must be the final insult to poor Hillary. To be so close to breaking the ultimate glass ceiling, and to feel you were mistreated by the media, and then to see some gun-tottin’, Bible-thumpin’ hottie hockey mom, with even less experience than that punk you were supposed to have crushed, strut in using [...]]]></description>
