   Great stuff-
   I was half expecting to see the oil being brushed on with
   a quill from a pelican killed by the spill
   He’s upped the ante. I’ll now have to do a cartoon on the contaminated eggs with actual bad egg yoke.

   At 3:14 am local Afghanistan time, Mssrs. Bors and Cloud were awakened in Herat by the sound of fiery explosions, screaming women, and a barking dog. I awoke later. We rushed outside to find the casualties of a Predator drone strike against the Al Qaeda Bar and Grill, our favorite local eatery. We immediately ran back to our rooms, filled our ink bottles with the blood of the dead, the dying, and random passersby. Also the dog. And mixed it with Bors’ diarrhea.

   Look for our soon-to-be-prizewinning cartoons on an Internet near you.

   Afghanistan is soooo last year.

   Now if you built a Christian community center with a Baptist church in it next to some of those dead people, you’d be a hero.

   I’m going to do a cartoon about the economy using only red ink.

   Damn. I specialise in poop jokes…

   Was that a video on using oil in editorial cartoons or an attempt to make me feel outdated for skecthing on paper with pencils?

   Nice I-Pad Douche…

   Steve is the nicest, most positive guy I’ve ever met in this business.

8. John Read

   And you know what, Clay, there’s not a thing wrong with that, is there?

9. Clay Jones

   John, it’s usually detrimental for a political cartoonist.

    I give Steve Breen points for initiative and innovation in doing these cartoons, plus the sepia tones make for beautiful drawings.

    Being a nice guy hasn’t seemed to be detrimental to Steve Breen.
    He’s won two Pulitzers and I won’t be surprised if he wins a third for these- I don’t know which I like better, the Statue of Liberty or the fist .
