Secret Revealed: Now We Know the Person in Dick Cheney's Sunglasses

A few days back a bunch of news junkies like myself were trying to identify the naked woman in Dick Cheney's sunglasses. While some think they found the answer (some even had the notion to suggest it was just a hand casting a fly rod), I got unconfirmed sources from within the Clinton camp that on the day in question, Hillary Clinton was not campaigning.

Instead it's rumored she looking for a way to get in touch with her base, reaching for booze and guns. This source, of course, asked to remain anonymous, so as to retain their unpaid position with the campaign.

You see here though, considering how I'm a high-class journalist, drawing cartoons, and poking fun, I couldn't let this story just fly over. So I had to do some some field work. Instead of heading down to the tabloid stand (where I do most my initial research) I decided to open up Photoshop, zoom into that photo of Dick's sunglasses (you all know which one I'm talking about but if you don't Google Dicks Sunglasses) and really dive into what was in those glasses. What you have here (seen above) is an exact representation of what I saw (minus a few pixels here'n there).

•  Umm, Not funny.

  Hillary is a Democrat.

  •  News to me n/t

    •  Yes, not clear to me either

      And anyway, so what? Because Hillary is a democrat you cannot link her to Cheney in a joke? She seems pretty close to McCain these days, or to Fox news.

      •  if you campare hillary

  •  Ummm, Not Funny...that Hillary Acts...

    a lot like a Republican?

    •  No, that's not funny...

      But I thought the diary is. What's wrong with making a joke? Either people bash Hillary for all she's worth or they become all offended for an innocent joke (I guess it's not the same people).

      My say is that one can make fun of Hillary, or of Obama or whatever they like, as long as they don't cross certain boundaries, which is not the case here.

      •  Or...

        Some people just don't find the cartoon all that funny.  I count in that category.  I don't really care about whom you make a joke.  I do care if it's funny or not.  I personally don't find it offensive, merely not funny.

        •  I'm a Not Funny Cartoonist

          Political cartoons are necessarily about being funny. I don't think making a bomb out of tubran is funny, but it got a lot of attention. My apologies if I didn't crack your funny bone, but it doesn't make Hillary any less a closet Cheneyite.

          •  No need to apologize

            I'm not even offended that you could not amuse me.  Of course, the next time....

  •  was a Democrat

    Now a Liebocrat

    •  Lieberman is not a democrat

      Unless your idea of a democrat walks and talks like McCain...in that case.. then I'm not a Democrat either. Let's both do this together and leave.

      •  Hillary and McCain have pretty much been

        on message, at least in their assaults on Obama.  If she is such a Democrat, than why is running down the man who is certain to be the Democratic nominee for President?

•  I don't like the comic.

  •  most difficult thing...

    ...I had to use my biased imagination to draw. So take away my pencils. Break my pens.

  a couple of days agoin this comment.

  It gave me an aneurysm then, and it's giving another one now.

  •  hey...thanks for pointing that out.

    Now I don't feel like my brain is on a path of complete solitude...

  talking about shooting ducks to get MY vote.
