Over the years, political cartoonists have emerged who have changed the course of history. Occasionally, an artist would draw a cartoon that would be particularly embarrassing to a politician or perhaps a businessman.

One cartoon can do more damage than thousands of the most well-structured words. The damage can be far more sudden and difficult to parry than even the most well-crafted words.

For this and other reasons, I really wish I were good at political cartooning. One particular cartoon I would love to draw is a likeness of Obama reaching and picking my back pocket.

He did, you know, figuratively of course. Then too, the figurative type can cause far more damage. Over the period of three years, in effect, he picked my pocket of thirty thousand dollars. He did this with the aid of the AARC and insurance companies. He did this with the aid of all his cohorts who called themselves Democrats.

This is a classic example of the majority enforcing itself on the minority. This is why we used to have senators selected by state assemblies. The idea of the republic is to protect the minority from bullying by the majority.

In this case, the majority effectively robbed the minority of their savings. Moreover, they did it quickly and very effectively. They also did it very coldly under the pretense of doing good.

Every now and then, I receive advertisements in the mail from AARC, which go straight from the mailbox to the trash. We might save some trees if they stop sending that junk mail to me and others like me.

Incidentally, you might remember that AARC receives far more money from special interests than from its members. When making decisions, whose interests are they most likely to consider? Maybe there is a good cartoon there too, though I don’t have a clue how or what one would draw to depict such greed and evil.
