Throughout time kings and queens held court and their jesters served humor on the people. I’m sure throughout history there were times when these masters of satire were faced with the possibility of losing their heads as they opened their mouths. But most times even royalty could not resist their genius even if the throne itself was being held in humorous contempt. Thankfully today our jesters show themselves in the form of Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart. I have more respect for them than I do many journalists today. They are brilliant.

The final results were a by-product of anal sex. More…

Funnies, political cartoons, charts, quotes, and photos about current news Reply
A variety of political cartoon, funnies, quotes, photos and charts all about what is in today’s news, including the economy, politics, and the Occupy Movement.
Also included are several letters in regards to student loan debt. When I started college in the fall of 1982, my tuition at Purdue, in-state and full time, was just under $800 per semester. I graduated debt-free. Now, students will graduate with a four-year degree often well into six-figures in debt.
