1. You certainly have a knack for picking great 'toons

Ben Sargeant really outdid himself with the elephant in this one:

5. This week

As much as I understand the cartoons. I question the harping on the sugar issue.
Only because I think, in light of what is going on with the campaign finance problems, the cartoonists should be focusing on the real problems.

6. Much as I believe there is a problem with obesity, you are right

the soda size debate is just a diversion. Too many of these diversions to just be a coincidence.

7. This land is my land; it is not your land, get off my lawn, you dirty hippies.

From the hills of Beverly to the shores of the Ha-amptons,
This land is mine, you peasant creeps.

This land is my land.
I have a shotgun.
You better start runnin',
Before I reload.
From Palm Springs, Cali to Palm Springs Flo-orida,
This land is mine, mine, mine, mine, mine.

12. This is the "Citizens United" verson I sang when I was a kid

This land's not your land
This land is my land
If you don't get off
I'll shoot your head off
I have a shotgun
And you don't got one
This land was made for only me.
