Junto Boys

For years the left has thought that by shouting real loud, nobody would notice they had nothing to say. Now they've lost again, and all I seem to be hearing post-defeat is the same losing refrains.

Appointing a black woman to Secy of State is a big deal. But the left gets, and needs, upwards of 86% of the black vote, so what can they do? Parody the appointment and offend black voters, or support the appointment and thereby support Bush? (The horror!) Here's your answer:

Cartoon 1: Condi as warmonger = setback to civil rights
movement, women's movement

Cartoon 2 (same page): Condi as token and pawn

Cartoon 3 (third panel): Condi as pawn to Rummy and Cheney, that is, token

The left is committed to losing strategies. And I imagine it must just be eating them up that Bush and Condi are actually friends. Blacks are to patronize, not to befriend. We see who the real racists are. Apparently what they really believe is that anything an actual black person achieves is due to unmerited largesse. Wait, come to think of it, that has been a plank in their platform for generations.
