Just recently the conservative supreme court justices ruled in favor of strip searching 5-4.  This is what this cartoon is addressing.  It's a funny cartoon because of the image and it also says a lot.  What's important to note is of course the conservatives being completely invasive of this poor little man.  There are specifically 5 conservatives that are there that represent the five supreme court justices that ruled in favor of strip searches.  But what is also very significant are the Liberals behind them. They are supposed to be calling the conservatives out on their previous concerns of the government being to intrusive but they then allow this.  It is a valid point.  Strip searching in many situations is the definition of the intrusion of ones privacy. 

Hold on, let me blow the presidential election for Republicans

Now I know that Santorum has dropped out and this comic doesn't exactly relate to anything specific that is going on in the primary right now but I thought it was just too funny to not post.  Santorum tends to say some very interesting things.  One of which would be this quote: “You win by giving people a choice. You win by giving people the opportunity to see a different vision for our country, not someone who’s just going to be a little different than the person in there. If you’re going to be a little different, we might as well stay with what we have instead of taking a risk with what may be the Etch A Sketch candidate of the future.”  Rick Santorum speculates that Americans might be better off sticking with President Obama than replacing him with Romney.  So that is what this comic is addressing and it's done in a very humorous way.

Oh that's a good One

This is just a great comic.  It was done at the perfect time because it was obviously Easter this past week.  The issue of Mitt Romney having very little personality has been looming over his head from the start of the Republican Primary.  At this point in the election many Republicans are saying that's it's time to face the facts, Romney is going to win so it's time for the Republicans to fully support him.  The comic just made an awesome parallel between Mitt Romney and the chocolate bunnies one might get at Easter.  I personally found this hilarious because I can relate and the hollow bunnies are a bit disappointing.  Now to compare this to Mitt Romney and in a sense say he really only is a face and there's nothing under his skin is such a witty comparison. 

This really is an amusing comic.  There's not much depth to it but it's still very clever.  Evolution and creationism have always been topics of note especially with specific party affiliation.  Religious people tend to be more conservative so this comic is poking at conservatives for the most part.  The comic makes the joke that those who believe in creationism are the same people that actually have not evolved as much as others.  The artist uses the idea of evolution or lack of evolution to give the reason for people believing in creationism. 

Tres Mas

This comic is very self explanatory.  It shows Mitt Romney's hands shaking an etch-A-sketch which of course has a picture or Rick Santorum on it.  As Romney shakes the etch-A-sketch the image goes away.  This is very obviously signifying Santorum dropping out of the race.  It's interesting that the artist did choose to make Romney's hands holding the etch-A-sketch however.  It makes it seem like Mitt Romney is responsible for Santorum dropping out of the race which he actually indirectly is but it was still Santorum that made the decision.  It wasn't Romney that made that choice. 

This will only hurt a little

I like this cartoon a lot.  There really is a lot of meaning in this one picture.  There's Obama sitting in a doctors office symbolizing his health care plan, Obamacare, getting his reflexes checked.  His healthcare plan has recently been on trial so in the doctors office there are two judges with gavels getting ready to check the Reflexes of Obama. (Obamacare) The Liberal judge is tapping his knee with a small gavel similar to a the rubber hammer doctors use.  And the Conservative judge is about to smash Obama's knee with a gavel closer to a sledge hammer.  The message of this cartoon is to point out that Conservatives are trying to find flaws in Obamacare and really at any cost. 

Hold On Tight

 This is a fun comic to depict.  Initially, one might think that this is directly correlating to the republican primary in general.  However there's more to the photo than just that.  Rick Santorum at one point or another has talked of strapping his dog to the top of his car on a vacation.  This photo on the New Yorker then twists that idea and makes it so Mitt Romney has Santorum strapped to the top of his car like a dog.  The image can almost be looked at as Santorum is to his dog as Romney is to Santorum.
