GUEST BLOG / Opinion By Glenn Bushinski, Vocal Media—Despite many changes over the years, political
cartoons have surged in popularity. With
more people talking about politics, and with the nation so deeply divided, it
becomes apparent that everyone wants validation for their political opinions. Nothing makes someone feel better than making
fun of people we feel are morally [and intellectually] backward.

phenomenon. The political cartoon has
existed for centuries, and, despite many changes over the years and many
different targets deserving the criticism, have at once entertained and
motivated persons of every country and every creed.
