Cartoons: Polls, wars and economic woes and angry cartoonists
Getting their messages out: Polls, wars and economic woes notwithstanding, it's official. Barack H. Obama wants to be the Democratic standard-bearer. (All stand for "Hail to the Chief," please.) But Tom Toles can't stand the president's inconsistencies. After some budget grandstanding, the family values clan gets a substandard portrait from Clay Bennett. And Matt Bors wants no misunderstanding about our standing obligations to Mideast rebels. Outstanding efforts all.

Clay Bennett should demonstrate what Leftist family values are ... EVERYone is poor (expect for the Big Government politicians)
Leftists are not interested in creating wealth, just redistributing it.
But hey, I guess Bennett would rather be a palace lackey then a promoter of liberty.

Shouldn't both parents should be well dressed? (Since the preferred approach seems to be that we just keep running up the national debt and let our children figure out how to pay it off.)

Speaking of budget cuts and the economy...........in order to qualify for low income-subsidized housing.......is it a requirement that the applicant be a US citizen?

@George Builder -
Obviously not. Obama's aunt lived in assisted housing for years (and still may?).
