With NBC running a Saturday Night Live re-run, I thought I'd catch up with something I meant to post a couple of weekends ago: How the new conservative comic strip, “The Gentleman from Lickskillet,” by Allen and Tuma, devoted a week of strips to liberal media bias.

Check here for the April 6-11 strips featuring the 'Mouthful' TV show with guest Howland Fonebone of 'Group Think' magazine.

Hmm, who could they be ridiculing?

The Gentleman from Lickskillet is plugged as “a comic strip for everyone who can't help but laugh at the politicians in Washington.” And, sometimes, the Washington press corps.

I've yet to see a Penny Arcade I thought was funny, but the Global Warming/automakers strips on the Lickskillet page linked here are brilliant--particularly the Apr. 20, 21, and 24 strips (the horse one from the 25th's a little lame, I'll agree).

Funny

Herd Mentality -Group Think

Matt Taibbi accused Tea Party Goers of exhibiting Peasant Mentality. They must be ill informed and thus of lower class.

Nope they were something worse to a Marxist -The Tea Party Goers are for the most part Middle Class.

I examined how Barack Obama got elected Herd Mentality.

Happy Cows- Herd Mentality vs Mad Cows- Peasant Mentality.

 The cartoon doesn't explain this is TRENDING across the bellwether states  Califorinia and Missouri. The bellwether states are significant as it is believed they show first what will spread across the rest of the country as they adopt the bellwether's trends.
