Ted Kennedy
In all fairness, left-wing fund raising organizations do the same thing, which is to demonize people (like Justice Antonin Scalia) to shake down their rabid base. So before you start saying I'm being disrespectful of Sen. Kennedy, let me stress that I would have drawn the same cartoon using liberals, were Justice Scalia the one who was stricken (although right-wing conservatives all know that liberals are godless. I'd have had to come up with a variation).
It's about political cynicism, nothing more or less.
CHAN LOWE has been the Sun Sentinel’s first and only editorial cartoonist for the past twenty-six years. Before that, he worked as cartoonist and writer for the Oklahoma City Times and the Shawnee (OK) News-Star.

Are YOU Godless, Mr. Lowe ?
Funny cartoon, though, even though you seemingly equate faith with being "ultra right".

To janet:
I stand by my commentary. Would you care to elaborate ?
Mr. Lowe says "It's about political cynicism, nothing more or less." I reject that. One cannot segregate their personal values like that (else, how did you form an opinion at all?). This is, after all, a blog where the writer is allowed to more freely express what they really think.
