August 29th, 2013 – Special interest group poll becomes leftist’s news story.
Aug 29th, 2013 by Rob Smith, Jr.

Here’s the headline in the Palm Beach Post that lays out the poll- ‘Poll: Most Americans don’t want health reform defunded’

Looks like this is a case of a poll reflecting how it’s question is worded. The question has the caveat about methodology of how to defund the process. Reword the question as to whether Americans approve of Obamacare as a job killer and see what results you get.

That and how more irresponsible could a story be than to report of a special interest group’s poll? It would be as bad as presenting as journalism a story about a poll against Obamacare by the Catholic Church, who has filed suit against the administration for, what it feels, is a Federal healthcare system that represents blasphemy.

Very important to notice that the writer is a founder of The Moscow Times and that a list of her stories shows very clearly her political leanings. Pity responsible journalism has been replaced by political activism.

Here’s the story:

‘Poll: Most Americans don’t want health reform defunded –

While many Americans continue to view health reform as a glass half-empty, they don’t want Congress to shatter it, a poll released by the Kaiser Family Foundation today finds.

The poll of 1,503 adults found 42 percent expressing an unfavorable view of the Obama administration’s health law.’

Decided to bookend Glenn Beck’s Restoring Honor event with two cartoons. One today and the next on Tuesday.

This one was entirely drawn within the Photoshop program.

August 20, 2010 – Obama and the Wave

There goes Obama! Isn’t he havin’ FUN!!??!! And not one press person around!

I have been recently slammed with work and divorce legal issues and was going to pass on both cartoons this week. I quickly knocked this out Thursday night. Entirely done with Photoshop.

August 13, 2010 – Obama’s Slingshot

This was a tough one to get out. I had an extremely full day where I was on the road. I ended up drawing this at a Denny’s while waiting for my father’s delayed flight near the airport. So this one was drawn a bit more in a rush than others.

July 27, 2010 – Roadside Bomb

This one was entirely conceived by Ken Culotta. Whatever may be in these documents, in the midst of war I can’t imagine that our soldiers can feel comfortable when information leaks. It shows how the digital world is not a safe place.

July 20th, 2010 – Digging up the Past.

What will Obama do in just a few years when the next President points fingers at HIS Presidency?????

This cartoon is a collaborative effort between Ken Culotta and myself. I was going to label the grave diggers Rahm Emanuel and David Azelrod and then decided not to. Someone e-mailed me that they thought I had dressed Obama as Lincoln. Nope, I was thinking more of an 1800s undertaker.

July 16, 2010 – An Obama Vacation

Just where are all the critics of any leisure time Bush took? Moreover, he just thumbs his nose at questions of an appropriate vacation location and just goes on his way.

July 13, 2010 – On a tear

Apparently if you want to make your troubles disappear, you just pretend they’re not there. So are the actions of Afghanistan’s Karzai as he seeks to excuse 100 on the United Nations Terrorist blacklist. I have to wonder if this is also what the Obama administration seeks to start for the back door of their Afghanistan war.

Another written by Ken Culotta. This was also his layout for the cartoon. Originally this was going to be a cartoon about the Black Panther situation that Ken wrote and really wanted me to do. But I considered the cartoon to be a bit volatile, unfortunately, and pulled it at the last minute. That is why this one only exists in the computer. I entirely drew it in Photoshop using a Wacom tablet as my drawing instruments.

July 9, 2010 – Boom!

It is insanity that our federal government finds it necessary to drop lawsuits on top of struggling states. All in the face of appearance not actual threat. The Feds decide to ignore the  financial struggles the states are having and especially that Arizona struggles further trying to pay for the federal governments irresponsible handling of illegal aliens pouring over the border and costing so much.

More over the rest of the world must wonder what the U.S. is doing in that it was this sort of action that began the Civil War.

Ken Culotta wrote this a few weeks ago and until the Feds actually brought the lawsuit on I sat on the concept.

This comparison occurred to me and thought I would draw it.

Actually little is drawn here. This one of the simplest cartoons I’ve done in a while.
