Like I've said before, sometimes the best gauge of the national mood can be reflected in the political cartoons at the local level. Thanks to the Internet, we can now see them all gathered in one place. These are taken from Daryl Cagle's website. And unlike the Gonzales resignation, this time, there were no cheap shots at the Democrats. Here's some good ones.
