• A perfect capitalist world

  Let’s just say for the sake of argument that Barack Obama’s comment about “you didn’t build that business yourself” was taken in context. Let’s say that it wasn’t preceded by references to teachers who might have helped us, to infrastructure that made business possible, and to those who went before [...]

• Chan Lowe: Romney's trip abroad II

  As of this writing, the Romney international "getting to know me" tour has been a debacle of the first order, and as yet we haven’t even gotten word of his performance in Poland.

• Chan Lowe: Romney's London gaffes

  Watching Mitt Romney’s blundering performance through Britain led me to suspect that his behavior may be part of a diabolical, calculated strategy to generate outraged headlines and tweets from overseas, because it plays well with xenophobic rubes in heartland swing states like Ohio.

• Chan Lowe: Colorado shooting tragedy

  After completing this cartoon, I gave it a fresh look—and realized that it might appear a little cold-hearted. That’s not my intention. What it really represents is a sense of frustration that no mass tragedy involving firearms is ever going to move the needle on how the nation feels about [...]

• Chan Lowe: Climate change

  The latest polls show that the extreme heat wave of late, (including the historic drought), has caused more and more Americans to believe that climate change is a reality, dispelling the notion that it’s an international bamboozlement perpetrated by a bunch of tree-huggers with an anti-industrial agenda.
