How can a political party be taken seriously when its "entertainment wing," Limbaugh, Beck, etc., endlessly scream that President Obama is a racist, a socialist, a communist, and a Muslim, and that he wasn't born in America?
Every time a Republican office holder has questioned Limbaugh's assertions over the past four years, he's been forced to apologize to Rush. The Republican Party is run by its clowns.
After 40 years as editorial cartoonist at The Philadelphia Inquirer, where he garnered more than his share of both awards and hate mail, Tony Auth decided that the time had come to broaden the range of his commentary. There is, after all, so much more to life than politics.
What he needed was a new venue. What he found was WHYY, and NewsWorks, where he is now its first Digital Artist in Residence.
Stay tuned.
