Conservative Cartoonist Says Obama Lies

Michael Ramirez

Move over Joe Wilson. Conservative ink slinger Michael Ramirez, the two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist for Investor’s Business Daily (View Ramirez’s cartoons here), called the president a liar while speaking to the Capistrano Valley Republican Women, Federated club at the Marbella Country Club in San Juan Capistrano, California.

According to Patch, Ramirez was talking about the President ridiculing the Republican’s three-step energy plan – “Step 1: drill. Step 2: drill. Step 3: drill.”

Ramirez said Obama has a three-step plan of his own: “Step 1: lie. Step 2: lie. Step 3: lie.”

Ramirez also said he likes Republican frontrunner Mitt Romney and his track record at Bain Capital, and said, “He’s created more jobs at Bain Capital than Barack Obama has in four years with the entire federal government behind him.”

Here’s a short video of Ramirez presenting some of his cartoons:

Some Still Think Obama is a Muslim

Republican voters in Alabama and Mississippi might have a hard time deciding which Presidential candidate they want to win the primary, but they agree on one thing – President Obama is a Muslim.

According to a new poll released by Public Policy Polling, a whopping 52 percent of Mississippi respondents believe Obama worships Allah. In Alabama the number is slightly lower at 45 percent. Only 12 and 14 percent, respectively, correctly identified Obama as Christian ( probably so they could criticize him over Jeremiah Wright).

As long as we’re still talking about this, here are some funny cartoons…

My Valentine's Day Cartoons

It’s Valentine’s Day, and while most guys are rushing around trying to get some flowers and chocolates impressive enough to satisfy their significant other, I’ve been selfishly co-opting the imagery of the holiday in a fleeting attempt to make readers happy.

Here are my Valentine’s Day cartoons for 2012. Between Obama and Mitt, I’d say Cupid has his work cut out for him…

Comparing Obama to Italian Cruise Ship Captain

Today the White House criticized comments by Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus comparing President Obama to the captain of the Italian cruise ship Costa Concordia, who allegedly abandoned his sinking ship.

Priebus said Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that Obama was “our own little Captain Schettino,” and accused the President of abandoning ship and spending more time on his re-election campaign.

Preibus wasn’t the only person to make this analogy. Some of the nation’s top political cartoonists drew cartoons to the same effect. So is it a fair analogy to make, or was Priebus (and our cartoonists) wrong to make the comparison?
