- '-- 1
- (Humpty Dumpty analogy) King George W. Bush and all his men might not be able to put the broken egg (Afghanistan) all over again. One of Bush's men remind him they are not into Nation-building. 1
- (I forgot what this controversy was about. Sorry. It has something to do with a weather balloon story coming from the Pentagon.) 1
- (I have forgotten what this is about. Sorry.) It obviously has something to do with George H.W. Bush dumping his friends, Big Jim Connely and Senator Howard Baker. They got 'BUSH-WHACKED. Presidential candidate Ronald Reagan wagons burn. 1
- (I'm not sure, but I think this cartoon has to do with Mayor Bob Isaac and the city council wanting to tax dog racing winnings.) It's a dog-tax-dog world. 1
- (I'm surprised this cartoon didn't get any reaction from the churches and public.) When money given for good works gets passed on to lawyers suing the Church for bad deeds done by pedophile priests it seems it would affect tithes and offerings somehow. 1
- (Originally published 1997-02) President Obama in the garb of Napoleon on a campaign for the next election looks at opinion polls rather than a map to get his troops to the destination. 1
- (Originally published 1997-04) People who work hard and have success get punished with huge taxes and bureaucracy. Liberals see successful people as whipping boys. 1
- (Oversize cartoon) Some, in the electorate, wonder why they should be interested in buying an old, conservative "model T" in 1980. They might be interested because all the new-fangled, big government models don't seem to work. 1
- (Part of this cartoon was published Sept. 13th) The media comments on Reagan trip to Colorado to help archconservative Kramer. They see Tim Wirth as a moderate...as they see Sen. Cranston. Labeling bias shown here. 1
- (Quoting scripture) ...and the lion shall lie down with the (well-armed) lamb....for awhile. Israel's Peres is the well-armed lamb and the lion is the wounded PLO. 1
- 1984 Democratic platform has a gay rights plank dropping Fritz and Tip into alligator infested water. (Note 1
- 1994 National polling service workers get a call from President Clinton. He wants to know how HE feels about moral absolutes. (Politicians don't have principles anymore, they have poll-tested positions.) 1
- 1st Lt. Kelly Flinn, an Air Force Academy graduate, the 1st female to carry nuclear bombs in a B-52, and charged with adultery, received lots of media attention. She seems to have trashed the AF honor code about not lying, cheating, etc. 1
- 40th birthday party in East Germany. General Secretary Honecker makes a wish before blowing out the candles. Party goers' wish is for the Berlin wall to come down. [wall fell on Nov. 9, 1989] 1
- 50th anniversary of the television. 1
- 95 GOP want to give states block grants for lunch programs. What will Dems say? Media weighs in more melodramatic than Dems. Taking kids lunch money, killing children. 1
- A Father's day cartoon. Why God probably invented Dads 1
- A Holy war between two skunks, the Ayatollah and Iraq's Hussein. Gas war spunk. 1

- A Suicide prevention worker from the United Nations and President Jimmy Carter (the policeman) are on a ledge trying to prevent Iran's Ayatollah Khomeini from committing suicide while he holds American hostages. Why are THEY on the ledge? 1
- A Team You Can Trust for health care (Dr. Hillary, Dr. Bill, Dr. Rusty) has some people in the National Health Care Waiting Room looking a little worried as they see police perp-walking Dr. Rosty out of the operating room. 1
- A UCCS professor is fishing in a bucket labeled '83 Colorado building fund. People laugh but one sees professor has a nibble. The state legislature just might come up with some money. 1
- A University professor with a Vote for Obama yard sign on his lawn takes his children to school. He doesn't seem to notice the loaded, heavy backpacks full of debt the president has been piling on their backs. 1
- A close drawing from news photo. Donna Rice sits on Hart's lap saying, Tell me again about 'enlightened engagement,' Gary. 1
- A conservative candidate wins in France. Panel 1. News item. Nicolas Sarkozy gets the women's vote in France. Panel 2. He also got the women's vote in America. (Lady Liberty is very happy the French voted for freedom.) 1
- A crowd of people stand at a street corner. A boy's radio brings announcement of CIG rate hike. Everyone looks sad except the Wood and Coal products man. 1
- A customer in a restaurant asks his server why she looks so happy. She's working on labor day. Waitress responds, I used to be on welfare. 1
- A great number of cars are wrecked on the highway. Angry driver says, Sure..."don't take a small commuter airplane, they said..." (relates to a news story saying that chances of automobile traffic accidents are much higher than airplane accidents.) 1
- A group called Save Our Springs are trying to recall city councilman, Dave Sarton, from office. They are paranoid about growth in Colorado Springs. They think Sarton, the mail man, is the Growth monster. 1
- A guard from NORAD reports the sky might actually be falling this time when he observes parts of the Skylab satellite hitting his roof. Perhaps we should listen to Chicken Little and his friends this time. 1
- A guilty-looking Uncle Sam is playing the middle-man role at a duel between Israel and Saudi Arabia. The U.S. is selling arms to arch enemies. 1
- A huge Soviet tank blows away man and donkey in Afghanistan. Driver explains to a puzzled audience he was a threat to USSR security. 1
- A huge tombstone commemorates 50 million unborn dead babies since Roe v. Wade passed in 1973. Boy asks, What killed all those babies, dad?" Dad answers, "Fear, pride, selfishness, greed..." 1
- A judge ruled that President Obama's Affordable Health Care program was unconstitutional. Dr. Obama is about to administer another shot of Socialism into the arm of sickly Uncle Sam. He wonders if the judge ruled on his drug program. 1
- A kinder, gentler tax bite. 1
- A large judge casts a shadow over a tiny baby in a manger, (exhibit A), to inspect the offensive evidence. It seems Christmas displays come under review every year to see if they pass the church/state test. 1
- A little boy waits outside of mom's office with gift. Secretary asks if he has an appointment. More moms are working outside the home nowadays. 1
- A many paneled cartoon to explain how responsible some gun businesses use common sense and should NOT sell guns to people they perceive to be a threat to other. A Nihilistic customer can't buy a gun. Guns don't kill people, philosophy kills people. 1
- A mellowdrama plays out. On stage, evil Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Act tells widow-woman Reagan "You MUST pay the rent." Reagan pleads, "But I can't pay the rent." Behind the curtain House and Senate drag in Tax increase, "That's your cue, buddy." 1
- A modern dad opens door to see a giant boot labeled, Federal Daycare there. He says, "Honey! the babysitter is here!" 1
- A monster peanut, $59 billion federal deficit, (It's peanuts now) has the most scary Halloween outfit. 1
- A news story about some Denver Bronco cheerleaders posing in the nude may have ruined the game for many sensitive football fans. I'm sure. 1
- A number of Olympic events at the 1979 Colorado Springs Sports Festival are seemingly trivial to me. Here we have an amateur breath-holding competition. 1
- A peace deal may have been reached between Palestinian leader, Yasser Arafat and Israeli President, Benjamin Netanyahu. President Bill Clinton if very pleased. All three participants celebrate by shaking their growing, pinocchio noses. 1
- A politically correct Mother can't seem to feed her family because the Surgeon General has determined that eating has been determined to be hazardous to their health. A study says natural carcinogens are in ALL foods. 1
- A pregnant teenager attributes her sad plight to the lack of sex education in the public schools. It seems obvious to me the problem might be the moral decay we see in our courts, media and other government agencies. 1
- A psychiatrist, standing under a light post like a prostitute has a sign advertising, "Have psychiatry degree, will testify". Newspaper headline nearby says, Hinckley (who shot President Ronald Reagan) "Innocent by reason of insanity." 1
- A reminder on Memorial Day about the high cost of freedom. Many coffins are being loaded into military transport planes for delivery home from the war in Iraq. The coffins spell out the high cost of freedom. 1
- A scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark... President Reagan gets aid to Central America through a dangerous Senate jungle. Now to the House. 1
- A school kid asks teacher if he can go to the bathroom. His teacher calls Mrs. Appleton to get her to call the EPA. Over-regulation enters every aspect of our lives. 1
- A ship called Indochinese Refugee Disaster is sinking. The folks in the Western World think a Beatles concert is the answer. War victims need safety, food and shelter, don't they? 1
- A sniper in Washington, D.C. has everyone spooked including TV reporters who decide to give the story 24 hour-a-day coverage. (That really helps, doesn't it?) Terrorists win again. 1
- A spat of crimes at the Miami airport inspired this cartoon. People can buy life insurance at airports. Why not rent flak jackets, carjacking insurance, armored truck and hire guards? 1
- A story in the Colorado Springs Sun about parents being sued by their children might give pause to those who discipline their children with spankings. 1
- A teen-age gang member kills a person with a stolen gun 1
- A tough Vietnam guy tosses China out of saloon...just like he did with the United States. 1
- A toy maker encourages children to adopt their cabbage patch dolls (as a Christmas gift). These dolls were all the rage in 1983, and hard to get. An African starving child might disguise himself as a doll to get adopted and fed. It's worth a try. 1
- A very loud, aggressive group of people on a Recall Mayor Ochs band wagon ran out of horsepower in the election. They blamed it on the weather. 1
- A veteran. without legs, and a hippy-type peacenik are walking to college class. Clinton-Gore voter loves the idea that they can get benefits for their national service. His service? Making posters to help save the rain forest. What did the vet do? 1
- A woman voter can see many Santa Claus types in July. Many politicians are offering tax cut packages now. Christmas comes early in election years. 1
- AIDS Coalition To Unleash Power (ACT UP) patient is stepping over a heart patient, cancer victim and endangered infant to get the attention of the doctor. The nurse is starting to understand why nobody likes him. 1
- AIDS patient gets more attention than heart disease or cancer patients. Maybe if they adopted an alternative lifestyle there would be as much interest as there is in AIDS. 1
- ATF police have a building surrounded. Reporter asks if they are after illegal firearms. The Chief replies, "Tobacco". Branch Winstonians is word play for the Branch Davidian debacle. 1
- About 30 million unborn babies in Heaven might disagree with the liberal media spin that Justice Blackmun grew in the office and was a friend of the underdog. 1
- According to Ted Kennedy and Nancy Pelosi... Panel 1. ...this is political, fear-mongering speech. Panel 2. ... this is not. 1
- According to Ted Kennedy...Panel 1. It's not fair for wealthy seniors to get tax cuts...Panel 2. ...But it's OK to force young workers to buy their drugs. 1
- According to the liberal media, Europe is separating itself from President George W. Bush's policy to disarm Iraqi tyrant Saddam Hussein. The map behind the anchor shows Europe growing smaller and separating itself from the rest of the world. 1
- Acrobat analogy 1
- Activist Judges and Democrat donkey leave muddy footprints on the Constitution and accuse President George W. Bush of the same thing. The president backs amendment defining marriage. 1
- Afghanistan president Karzai gets advice from President Barack Obama. He needs to clean up his act. He is losing his people's trust. The mob boss from Chicago might have the same problem back home. 1
- African thugs are unloading sacks of grain from ship using slave labor. We send aid to starving Africans. African war lords take it. 1
- After Hurricane leveled large parts of New Orleans the politicians and President George W. Bush all favor rebuilding the city. Taxpayers wish they could build it on higher ground. 1
- After passing the huge, huge Obamacare bill, Congress is finally getting around to reading it. They are finding all kinds of scary stuff in it. Even the Democrats, who passed the bill, want to kill the snake called, Rule 1099". 1

- After voting yes on the Panama Canal give-away, Colorado Senators Floyd Haskell and Gary Hart return to the dangerous waters of their home state to face a hostile constituency. 1
- Again, presidential candidate, Ronald Reagan gets hit by his own bullet in a K.K.K. remark (joke). The major media is out to get him. 1
- Against the advice of his supporters on the new right, President Ronald Reagan decided back a move by the IMF to open up a lot of silver (money) to communist China. The Lone Ranger rides again without his trusted friend, Tonto. How sad. 1
- Aide brings Osama Bin Laden great news ..185 Muslim Worshipers were slaughtered by his terrorists. 1
- Air Force Academy dog is guarding the hen house. Peace-protester hens march against watchdog protection while chicken eaters await. 1
- Air traffic controllers in trouble. Federal control of the airports is sadly antiquated and under equipped to handle modern air traffic. The FAA offers backup system if air controllers can't communicate with the pilots. It's a megaphone. What? Me worry? 1
- Airline called, Civil Rights Act of '64 is obviously overloaded by protected class people. Now the gravity impaired passengers are boarding. Congress might regret adding so many groups but It seemed like a good idea at the time. 1
- Airport scene. Caption "News item 1

- American consumers are carrying a heavy load. On top of big inflation, they have to pay more taxes and cover the cost of criminal activity like check forgers and shoplifters to bring their merchandise home. I don't call this getting more for our money. 1
- American consumers are thirsting for more credit in this grim, economic climate. Banks are reluctant to loan money and inflation is eating the paychecks nowadays. 1
- American consumers continue to buy on credit even though torpedoes, dollar decline, interest rates, stock market and productivity aim to stop the ship. 1
- American eagle stopped Libyan rat. Peacenic dove is sad for the rat. Eagle asks if it would make a difference to point out the poor fellow was armed. 1
- American liberals sent lots of support to Sandinistas in Nicaragua. 1
- American patriot revolutionary spy, Nathan Hale said, "I only regret I have but one life to lose for my country." A young draft protester today regrets he has only ONE life for his country to defend. Sigh! 1
- American's favor choice on abortion. Polls also show Americans are opposed to abortion for convenience, media bias. 1
- Americans can't decide whether to spend money in Ron's Gym or Tip's Food and Drink. President Ronald Reagan's plan is to get American in shape. House Speaker, Tip ONeill, wants to add weight to the welfare state. 1

- Americans show a spirit of unity, for a change, by joining together in condemning Iran's leader, Ayatollah Khomeini, for taking embassy hostages. The jihadist government is creating a monster. (Now, if we just had a president.) 1
- An ABC News poll shows most Americans see poverty and human rights are worse than Soviet subversion. Perhaps more U.S. citizens need to see slaves in USSR forced to work. 1
- An American family is being loaded aboard Soviet truck while watching Super Bowl. It seems to me citizens should be more concerned about the Soviet threat than the Super Bowl. 1
- An obese Uncle Sam tells a thin family THEY are going to have to tighten their belts. 1
- An oil crisis victim is on the floor. The media sleuth always blames the butler (oil companies) for the murder. The American consumer, (the maid), the OPEC (gardner) and Uncle Sam (big gov't regulators) look totally innocent...but they're not. 1
- An unusual announcement comes to the employees and customers shopping at K-Mart. The store is for sale on aisle 3. (Original give to the Winnike family) [K-Mart Corporation filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection January 22, 2002] 1

- Another assisted suicide in Michigan. Doctor Kevorkian is arrested for assisting Lady Justice to commit suicide. 1
- Another cartoon examining why presidential candidate Mitt Romney lost to President Obama. Romney's handlers kept him from taking the gloves off. Another example of the establishment Republicans trying to play fair to impress the liberal media. 1
- Anti-Bush people just don't get it... Panel 1. When U.S. troops help defeated Iraqi troops...that's GOOD. Panel 2. When Iraqi troops use captured U.S. troops for propaganda...that's BAD. 1
- Apple software's logo is an apple with a bite taken out of it. Bill Gates, CEO of Microsoft, has taken another bite out of the Apple. (I think this cartoon is related to the competitiveness of the two giant computer companies.) 1

- As leaders of the U.S., Europe, Canada and Japan meet in Venice, Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev announces a pull-out strategy in Afghanistan. He stands ready to withdraw his sword slightly from Afghanistan man's back. Mr. Nice Guy. 1
- As people see the military jets taking off and heading toward the Middle East, there could be two things going on. The war could be heating up over there or the impeachment hearings of President Bill Clinton could be heating up in Washington. 1
- As the Ayatollah Khomeini waves (and burns) a red and white U.S. flag he attracts the attention of a lot of other dangerous bulls. Iranian Turks, Kurds, and Marxist student bulls all charge the flag from many different directions 1
- As the G-8 countries gather to solve their economic issues, I doubt if the frugal, Volkswagon-driving Germans will be anxious to pay the bills for the big-spender, free-wheeling, motorcycle gang (USA, France, Britain, etc.) 1
- As the North Atlantic Treat Organization celebrates it's 50th birthday, President Bill Clinton, (and NATO officials) seem to be tempting a large, Soviet Bear to react. The bombing in Yugoslavia seem to go past their mission of fighting a humanitarian war. 1
- As the Soviets abduct a woman in alley, they are not worried. The liberal U.S. media focus is on getting rid of Interior Secretary, James Watt. 1
- As the U.S. Unions build the trade-barrier wall higher President George H.W. Bush and his USA bull are sad because they are keeping separated from Mexico's cow, thus preventing the production of little calves. 1
- As the conflict with Iran heats up, General Alexander Haig's presidential candidacy (tank) moves to the front of the line. 1
