Shouldn't there be a frame with them shaking their heads at a pregnant rape or incest victim?

That's awesome! Wasn't it the New Yorker that did the Michelle-and-Obama-as-militant-Oval Office-radicals cover the last time around? Must be the GOP's turn this time.

Dan,
Care to slip a joke about blind people in this?

Damn, that's one stinky-looking fart from Mittens in the lower right - my guess is he's lactose intolerant - should have let Ryan have the whole milkshake in the lower left panel.

Something homoish, I would expect.

Yes, I love the puppy one but I also thought there should be one of them hilariously kicking a woman to death outside a clinic.

Not even an abortion clinic, just any old health care clinic and any woman.

It's a pity they went into politics. If they had chosen to use their lying skills for acting instead I would absolutely love watching them. Especially together.

But no. They have to go for jobs where they can fuck other people over.

Is this real?

Funny as hell...but more worthy as a Mad Magazine cover.

I'm amazed. Paul Ryan can run with Romney's dick up his ass.

He should be at the top of the ticket.

I like that the car they're working on looks like it's a Rambler - American.

@5 Yep, and that would make an awesome diptych!
