great to have you back!
Hey, welcome back. I hate it when you're gone. I'm not sure you really needed to put the word "flush" in this, but it is an excellent piece.
Jim,
Would you also have drawn the same cartoon for other wars we are still paying off?
The Civil War?
The Spanish American War?
World War I?
World War II?
Also, I'm curious as to your opinions on Dr.Seuss's political cartoons during World War II that take basically the total oposite veiw of most political cartoonist today?
I also in my mind see much bigger nights flushing the tax toilet. Welfare, medicare, pork barrel spending, political conventions, among other things that are a much bigger part of the budget.
As Earth Day approaches I just wonder how much of a fundamental change in our energy use we could have made if we would have put the $400 billion into research and/or purchase of alternative fuels? I guess we will never now. Flush away!
