TOON-OP

A real blast

Cartoonists on the week's explosive issues.
April 20, 2008

Da 'toons this week were da bomb. Nick Anderson's perfectly targeted White House warhead belongs on a list of classic Vatican cartoons. Rob Rogers took aim at Pennsylvania primary campaign bombast with a combination of anti-Clinton artillery and anti-Obama Ba-rocket launchers, scoring a direct hit. Adam Zyglis zeroed in on McCain's gas-tax plan, pumping it full of holes with antitank weaponry. I'm bitter that I didn't think of these. Guess I'll go hunting, or bowling.
