A side-splitting election

Share
Joel Pett is the Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial cartoonist of the Lexington Herald-Leader. His work also appears in USA Today.

Liberal cartoonists were clearly in the tank against sanctity. We propagated plenty of post-election Proposition 8 propaganda, so take a proper gander. Matt Davies’ honeymoon express veered off the straight and narrow. I too was wed to the idea that one group’s upbeat milestone was another’s beat-up millstone. And Tom Toles, always thinking inside the boxes, deftly married up confined feeding and conjugal feelings. I guess the majority of Californians thought we were divorced from reality, and espoused the opposite view. We’ll hitch up our pants and keep trying.
