Perfect: the GOP-blue-capped jester keeping the Democratic donkey from passing an extension of unemployment benefits at Christmastime….

I’m not sure whether this stunt argues for or against him being of this time, place and planet, but figured you would be quite interested in it as a historian.

“X, put on a barrel, is intended to tell
The strength of the beer, and its flavor as well.”

Now that is my kink of illustrated alphabet.

In pure color-and-compositional terms, the above just might be the best graphic we’ve seen on Historiann in the last four years, and that’s saying something.

I like the cowgirls better, from a purely color-and-compositional standpoint, of course.

Romney proves that being born to the right family is all that’s need to be a big success (except being president). The Republicans don’t learn and don’t remember. Their zany Newt was brought to his knees by Bill Clinton who had difficulty get his own party’s support. (The latter is the reason we got to where many could potentially mop the floor with Barack Obama.)

Hell, I’m kicking myself that *I* didn’t run. That four- digit “big guv’mint” payment that I got last summer? I got that for being a historian. My position on immigration? Turn Texas loose to be its own ephemeral nanostate and ree-fund the Gadsden Purchase. My postcard-sized filers form for the new Millionaire’s Tax? “Send it ALL In!!!” And that’s just the beginning; more sound-bytes and tweets after Iowa.

In pure color-and-compositional terms, the above just might be the best graphic we’ve seen on Historiann in the last four years, and that’s saying something. Does anybody happen to know how Routledge got mixed up with Kegan Paul, anyway?
