Pirate's Cove

You remember Ted Rall, right? Some of his greatest hits (but, by no means all of them)

• An Army of Scum: Or, We’re Looking For a Few Good Homosexual Rapists
• A disgusting cartoon about Pat Tillman
• A disgusting cartoon calling U.S. Troops suicide bombers (same link as above)
• A disgusting cartoon of Condi Rice, calling her a “house nigga”
• Making fun of 9/11 widows
• Portraying all Republicans as inbred rednecks, religious nuts, and KKK members

Back when I wrote that article, Ted was already a wee bit ticked off, and wanted Obama to step down. His midterm post-mortem is even worse

An Autopsy of a Political Suicide

It’s the day after the Republican sweep we all knew was coming. If Obama had any dignity, if he was honest with himself and with us, he would resign. It’s abundantly clear that he isn’t up to the job.

But you don’t become president by being honest or dignified. So now it’s wound-licking time. The President and his cronies are comforting each other. “It’s not your fault the economy sucks,” a Yes Man reassures Obama, sinking his heels into the new Oval Office carpet. “It was like that when we got here.”

Do they scratch him behind his ears? They should. It feels nice.

You may hate his disgusting cartoons, but, you do have to give Ted style points for honesty, and being completely right about Obama. Anyhow, rather than stealing his thunder with lots of excerpts, go read the whole thing.
