5. That's what you call taking on the gun lobby?

No wonder the anti-gun movement is so impotent.

6. Doonesbury is very influential amongst those who find it to be influential

Everyone else? Not so much...

Just a little too mannered for my taste. Give me a Herblock, a Jeff MacNelly, a Thomas Nast.

I note that Starbucks withstood the withering blasts of M. Trudeau without changing its policies one iota.

Meh. The dogs bark, the wind blows, and the great caravan moves on.

7. Perfect, for all the congress critters that get their primary policy input from the funny pages
I'm sure this will be every bit as effective in rousing congress to pass new gun control as he was in getting Starbuck's to change its policy.

Is the blood running on the floors there yet?
