Newt Versus Mitt: Five Funny Cartoons

With the GOP Primary heating up in Florida, it’s Newt versus Mitt in a bare-knuckle fist fight over the direction of the Republican Party.

Vulture capitalist versus Freddie Mac lobbyist? Out-of-touch rich guy versus family values hypocrite? It’s almost like President Obama is writing these attack lines!

State of the Union Cartoons

Tonight, President Obama will deliver his State of the Union speech as GOP candidates bludgeon themselves over vulture capitalism and influence peddling. Are Republicans making it easy for a President facing high unemployment and record levels of debt?

We’ll leave the history of tonight to Newt Gingrich. For now, check out our new State of the Union cartoon collection.

My Recent Campaign Cartoons

So far, this GOP Primary has been terrific for guys like me. All the Republican candidates are fun to draw, and at this point the only thing I’m concerned about is having enough pencils to keep up.

Mitt Romney has suddenly become the right’s whipping boy over “vulture capitalism” and his hesitancy to release his tax returns. Romney claims that Gingrich and others are attacking free enterprise, and Mitt’s proud of what he’s earned despite how much you may envy him. So if he’s so proud, why’s he afraid to let us know all about it?

Meanwhile, Newt Gingrich bashes the media and pretends to be the “family values” candidate despite his marital record and stories about hospital bed divorces…

Remember after Iowa and New Hampshire, when we all though Mitt would walk away with this primary easily? Yeah, not so much…

I guess New Hampshire wasn’t the cruel, bossy dominatrix we all thought she was…

Gingrich And His Wives Cartoons

Despite winning the South Carolina Primary, Newt Gingrich is still carrying a lot of baggage forward. The notion that the family values candidate is having to fight off attacks from his second wife over claims he wanted an “open marriage” could hamper the comeback of the former speaker, especially if he insists on sending the daughters from his first wife to defend his third wife against attacks from his second wife.

Uh-oh, I’ve gone cross-eyed. I think we’re better off checking out all the great Gingrich Women cartoons we have to offer.

Five Funny Newt Gingrich Cartoons

This fascinating and fun to draw GOP Primary will continue to Florida, as Newt Gingrich has pulled off the upset and defeated Mitt Romney in the South Carolina Primary.

Newt is nearly a perfect candidate for the nation’s cartoonists. He’s very fun to draw, has enough baggage in his past to fit nearly every visual metaphor, and his harsh rhetoric offers great visuals for cartoonists to take advantage of.

Here are five recent Newt Gingrich cartoons that I thought I’d share. To view all our Newt Gingrich cartoons, click here.

A Very Cagle Christmas

Merry Christmas to all our readers! As we begin to wrap up another year and prepare to dive in to glasses of egg nog, I thought it might be fun to look back at some of the Christmas-related cartoons I’ve drawn over the years.

Here’s this year’s cartoon. Figured it’s what’s on the mind of a lot of Republicans this Holiday season:


Here’s one featuring Obamaclaus:

I drew this one back in 2006, after Iraq became the debacle we all know and love now:


Keep you eyes peeled on those Salvation Army bell ringers. You never know:


This was my Christmas cartoon back in 2003, when Bush gave away everything, including the kitchen sink, to be re-elected:

Here’s a golden Cagle oldie from way back in 2000, back when I was still drawing cartoons for the Honolulu Advertiser (now known as the Honolulu Star-Advertiser after being bought by its cross-town rival):
