New Cartoon! or a very unhappy birthday to Strom...

Check out my new cartoon regarding Trent Lott's revealing remarks at Strom Thurmond's birthday bash last Thursday. To recap, Lott stated that he was proud that his home state of Mississippi had voted Thurmond for president in 1948 (see official 1948 Mississippi ballot, found via Atrios and Amptoons)... and if the rest of the US had followed suit, we wouldn't have "all these problems" now. Those "problems" presumably being integrated schools, civil rights, and anti-lynching laws. (See my previous post on Strom)
