Looks to me like cartoonists are getting as snarky as the politicians and news reporters at Fox. So today's mix is an attempt to find the humor in it all.
Ben Carson, a Tea Party candidate for president in 2016, is not particularly popular with voters, according to poll results at I Side With... Tom Toll's cartoon below paraphrases Ben Carson's statement, quoted from the Huffington Post, "that being gay was a choice "because a lot of people who go into prison go into prison straight -- and when they come out, they're gay. So, did something happen while they were in there? Ask yourself that question." The paraphase makes much more sense to me.
Republican's denial of climate change has made them a laughingstock to many. I Side With asks "Should the government increase environmental regulations to prevent global warming?" You can check the poll answers.
I hope Chris Christie is unable to overcome Bridgegate--in my eyes, it says clearly what his values and methods are. We're still allowed to laugh, though.
Unfortunately this cartoon may be too true in depicting what will happen in November 2016, if the political scene continues to unravel.
