By the Comics Curmudgeon What is the single most important event to have occurred in recent U.S. political history? If you said "the election of our first black president" or "the financial crisis and the associated large-scale government intervention in the financial markets" or "the various wars" you would be WRONG, WRONG, WRONG. No, the watershed moment in our current political life came earlier this week, when a bunch of jackasses protested a tax increase that won't happen for years and will happen to other people when it does by aimlessly waving teabags at their elected representatives, or, when those representatives could not be located, at baffled passersby. Did any of America's unrepentantly liberal elitist political cartoonists dare to draw cartoons that presented these so-called "teabaggers" as the heroes that they are, or at least acknowledge their existence?
