Out of their depth
Joel Pett is the Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist for the Lexington Herald-Leader in Kentucky. His cartoons also appear in USA Today.
Widening environmental catastrophe, injudicious personal innuendo and an upstart libertarian with a 2010 senatorial vision -- what a stellar week! John Trever paddled Uncle Sam for running in the wrong corporate circles. Matt Bors envisioned a clever dalliance alliance between unfaithful parties. And Kentucky Republicans eyeballed the political menu and ordered up ... tea! Perfect. I’ll have mine with no sweetener. Just acrid, bitter and caustic, please.
-- Joel Pett
