Doug Marlette
Cartoonist, Doug Marlette was killed in a traffic accident the other day.RALEIGH, N.C. -- Doug Marlette, the Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist who recently turned his incisive wit toward a budding career as a novelist, died Tuesday in an auto accident in Mississippi. He was 57.As a political cartoonist, he was an equal opportunity offender, but lately he'd been facing up to the Islamic threat in his cartoons. As a reminder of how powerful a cartoon can be, I swiped my favorite, one that earned him the ire of the "Religion of Peace," and reprinted it below.
Marlette, who split his time between Hillsborough and Tulsa, Okla., and was visiting Mississippi to help a group of high school students with the musical version of his syndicated comic strip, "Kudzu." He had just delivered the eulogy at his father's funeral Friday in Charlotte, N.C.

I like this cartoon quite a bit. Makes me sad that I will not see more like this(from him) But I find comfort that the PC crap is waning on the internet and the ROP is being outed more and more!
Now if only our leaders would pay attention.
Oh, I did not know! So sad! What a loss of talent.
