We live in a free country, but sometimes that freedom is ugly. Like the freedom of the Westboro Baptist Church to show up at funerals of fallen soldiers and wave flags saying "God Hates Fags," "God Hates America," "God Loves Dead Soldiers, while singing God hates America to the tune of "God Bless America." It may be vile, but the Supreme Court ruled that their speech is protected.
The free speech of cartoonists is protected as well. Check out what they think of the Supreme Court's ruiling in our new Funeral Protests cartoon slideshow.

Charlie Sheens’s recent colorful quotes have been quite popular among the cartoonists. We have a great new collection of Sheen editorial cartoons here. This batch of Sheen applied to the Family Circus amused me.
My cartoonist daughter, Susie, drew up an ambitious Sheen Sunday comics page below. See more of Susie and more Sheen quotes on AOL’s Urlesque site.

Talented conservative cartoonist Eric Allie drew a cartoon yesterday about the protests in Wisconsin that seems to have touched the nerve among our readers. In the cartoon, featured below, Allie recast the fight going on in Wisconsin, making the public sector union the behemoth, while making the average taxpayers as “the evil greedy corporate monster.”

Here’s a sample of some of the comments we received about the cartoon:
VickySP: “I am a public sector worker and I couldn’t disagree more. I took a paycut to take this job almost 15 yrs ago. Not only did I never get back to my pre-public sector pay, I’ve taken pay cuts for the past several years that have put me even lower than when I started. Why do I stay in this job? I took it originally for the job security and benefits – I have family obligations. I’m still there because of the family obligations and the lack of any local job opportunities in my field. Not all public sector unions are the same. Not all are “Goliath”. Look at the facts before you make assumptions.”
Brian Mitchell: “Wonder who the Bankers’ & Stockbrokers’ Association gets to do its corporate cartoons? Sell-out.”
Hhvision: “No wonder cartooning is a dying industry. With a perspective like Mr. Allie’s, it should have passed away years ago.”
David Bruce: “Accurate depiction despite all the marketing spin to the contrary.”
Ron Evry: “I hope the lady in the picture packed her kid’s knapsack with plenty of Brawny™ Paper Towels. The hundreds of millions the Governor just gave the Koch Brothers might not be enough for them…”
Steve Berlin: “Considering taxpayers don’t pay for Union pension, once again Conservatives are crying how that mean ol’ David is picking on poor old Goliath.”
Justin Jones: “Wow, what a completely stupid, uninformed, and tone-deaf cartoon.”
Alexander Thorburn Hoffman: “Perfect cartoon. Union thugs vs the people who actually have to pay their salary.”

Anyone who listened to Charlie Sheen's crazy rant on "The Alex Jones Show" last week was introduced to a mentally imbalanced, power-hungry control freak who is willing to go battle with any and all of his critics. Hmmm... reminds me of a certain dictator in Libya.
