2. Sometimes
tranquilizer darts and straight jackets aren't enough. Fortunately in my neighborhood it's about 10%, at least that's what the election showed. They're easy to spot: The house with the big iron fence around it and two Hummers in the driveway, but I could be wrong.

5. sadly, I know a person or two who routinely say things like that and are serious
I plan to send them the cartoon, but their disconnect from reality is so severe, they'll probably think they're just reading Drudgemax or something.

3. Listen To Anti-American RW Radio Recently?
This is exactly their take on the situation. The occupation of Iraq, the failings of the Republic Party and shrub and Co's trashing of the Constitution are all explained by these cartoon panels.

These people really believe. The shame of all this is, the absolute lack of credibility of those espousing these unreal ideas do not seem to matter. Heck, the more un-credible the person making the claim, the farther the nonsense goes.
