They are the deciders


The second cartoon in a day. My hand will wither away to nothingness if I keep this up. But the news was too good not to do a cartoon on.

Ahhhh, Fox News. On the Huffington Post, they released internal memos from Fox management that...Surprise, surprise...TELLS the reporters what to say.

Fair and Balanced? Does ANYONE believe that anymore?!?

Property Tax Reduction on Lawaway?


The committee set up to come up with a solution to New Jersey's crippling property taxes has released their recommendations, including a 20% reduction in property tax. This sounds great, except that they have no idea how to truly fund it. I'm not sure how it's all going to shake out, but I do know that New Jersey taxpayers won't stand for high property taxes much longer, and are looking for REAL solutions to ease their burden.

Rutgers? RUTGERS!?!?



Rutgers 9-0!?! My friend Anant would sum this up the best; Un-Be-Liev-Able! Their come-from-behind victory against Louisville, who blew an 18-point lead and was shut-out by Rutgers defense in the second half, eventually losing the game on a field-goal with 13 seconds left.

Another interesting fact: The victory places Rutgers in the 10 for the first time ever in the school's history, which began in 1869!

We'll see how long this lasts, but my girlfriend's father is definitely psyked! My girlfriend, who went to Rutgers, eh...not that much.

No incumbents...Don't go!


No matter how many people clamor about a change in direction, a change in government, that it's time to clean out the cupboards, people LOVE incumbents. There's no two ways around it. And New Jersey is no exception.

Kean vows to continue the fight



Despite the appearance of a close race, Menendez pulled ahead in the end and won by almost 30,000 votes. Now Menendez is off to Washington, and Kean is left to ponder what could have been, especially if he had let up on the negative advertising just a little bit.

Borat comes it New Jersey


So the Borat movie came out, and even though it was only on 500 screens, it made a killing at the box office. I just can't wait to hear the stories begin to trickle out about these people who got paid next to nothing to be made to look like fools in a movie that's making the star millions. Oh, the world is just.

And the movie is really funny, in case you were wondering.
