My family likes to hunt and we enjoy our guns. I don't want anyone taking them away. I also know that when our guns are gone we have no way to protect us. There are a lot of illegal guns out there. We need someone in the White House that is for the people. I hope Mc Cain and Palin make changes in this country. Obama can't He isn't even helping is own state of IL from a corrupt Gov. Trying to close Prison's amd State Parks down state. Chicago is not all of IL down state needs help and Obama has turned his back. From a concerned Mom in IL.

I don't need guns to protect myself. Gun owners are pansies.

You've GOT to be joking.....this is funny? Typical from the two-faced, hypocritical lemming flying monkey republicanazis and their lying chief, the American Hitler bush.....both would rather let this country go downhill (they think that the Constitution is nothing but a piece of paper) than to vote in people who actually CARE about this country. Your cartoon character, shooting up the place, seems to miss Der Furher......too bad........

And, that comment was meant to your republicanazi posters here, Walt........and they have themselves to blame when the US is in a Depression....damn Nazis......

Zieg bush!!

I did not particularly find the cartoon funny as it does lack substance, but then again, that's part of the message, isn't it?

The reason Jake doesn't need a gun to protect himself is because the USA is so ingrained, properly, in the rule of law. But don't you dare forget that you have been given the right and freedom to make your comments by gun carrying citizens in our past and present history.

And why do Americans run so quickly to blame one man, Bush? I say because Americans have a very short memory in addition to being short sighted. If you look back with 20/20 hindsight, you may be surprised to discover that the policies enacted by one president affect the next presidency much more than his own. That being said, Clinton reaped the rewards of the policies and economics of Reagan and Bush the Elder. But Clinton did practically nothing except keep Greenspan in place.

Clinton even allowed Bin Laden to get away and primed us for 9/11. But, of course, most here have already forgotten that day. However, right or wrong, 9/11 set the set the stage for Bush's presidency, He has been required to re-act much more than being allowed to be pro-active.

And Bush is right in keeping the fight in the terrorist's backyard rather than our own. This has given us the time needed to re-build our intelligence network so nearly decimated but Carter, Reagan, and Clinton.

And lastly, the president is not the total government. Do not forget your Democratic congress that has made oh so much happen. They, congress, have as much of an obligation to lead and serve you, the American citizen, if not more than the president. But I don't see signs in the streets about them.

The foregoing are just some observations by a Mexican national, here legally, and a proud veteran of the United States Army. May God bless America.

She can show up with all the big guns she wants, but if her performance is like the ones she's recently had, I expect her to have brought the wrong ammunition.

And I hardly expect Biden will be defenseless. Biden was once known to have stated that Rudolph Guiliani had only three parts to any sentence he used: a noun, a verb, and a 9/11. About the only thing that might restrain Biden is this notion that beating up on poor little Mrs. Palin might make him look sexist. If she shows up gunning for him, though, he'll have a much better case for letting lose.

Jose L. Gaytan-
Nobody required Bush to be reactionist, he chose to be. It shows. You can say that Clinton had nothing to do with the great economy, but I'd say this: he didn't get in the way. Bush and the Republican Congress bent over backwards to help their friends, and look what it got us.

As for the Democratic Congress not doing much, you have the Republican minority in the Senate to thank for that: they became the most obstructive minority in the senate in our nation's history, with a year to spare.

If you expect change to come of the Republican party, you have only to look to them to see how strongly they've fought against it.

As for gun carrying citizens, I'll give them their due, but for heavens sake, this is a country built on the rule of law. It isn't a gun that guarantees our freedom, but an honored agreement that enshrines those freedoms as central to our government.

I always figured that 2/3rds of the folks that read this site are Marxists. Its a shame there are so many people willing to give up their rights so they can lay around on their butts and have someone else take care of them.

How quickly you forget that it was Bill Clinton who released Bin Lodin, Al (Dumbass) Gore that was the moron that questioned Oliver North about Bin Lodin. When Oliver North stated thet Bin Lodin was the "MOST DANGEROUS MAN ALIVE!" Al Gore laughed and could NOT even pronounce Bin Lodins name properly. Liberals on both sides of the party ticket are at fault for alot of what is happening to America today. But when are you going to face facts? WE VOTE THEM IN TO OFFICE! It's true that the media only reports what they want to us to hear,see or read. We NEVER get the whole story anymore. Dumbocrates own the news and we only know what they let us know. Has anyone ever heard of "ACORN" Obamas socialist Americas back stabing program? I did not think so. It is soooo ANTI AMERICAN.Look it up if you can. Even my Dumocrate Liberals will be sickened to you very bones by the hatred this canadate has for America and ALL of its people! I DARE YOU TO LOOK UP "ACORN"
P.S. All of you "AMERICANS" that had to buy a house that you could not afford, a boat you never use, a time share that sits empty, more clothes that you can't fit into, expensive cars that don't make you sexier or do anything more than a less expensive one. It's all the pepoles fault that "have to have it" because I'm worth it bullshit. That is as much at fault as politiciand with their hands in the cookie jar. Your wonderful Dumbocrates and liberals made MILLIONS even on the BAIL-OUT they just caused. Keep it up America! Whet the light of good in America where will the WORLD turn for help???????????????

Dear Newsday: I don't know who offends me more - the people posting the hate comments here or your cartoon. It ain't the guns. It's the hate and killin' stupid. Or maybe it's the stupid, stupid. That applies to both. Looks like, sounds like, something a 14-year-old boy would draw in the back of class.

Dear People: Seriously, I can hardly believe the stuff that goes for fact on the Internet and in viral emails. Socialist? Do you know what that really means or did someone say it on the radio or write it on the Internet and you believed? Hatred for Americans? So weird. Look up trade imbalance. Look up federal deficit. Do some real research on a real subject.

Here's the scoop folks - the Cheney/Rove people want you to be afraid. It worked for them for the past 8 years and they aren't done exhausting it yet. They will exploit you every second they can and laugh all the way to the bank, at your expense. It frightens me to see people so gullible - no matter what party - but moreso when the motivation is hate and fear. By the way, hate cannot live without fear. I don't care who you vote for, but do yourself a favor and start making your own decisions based on issues. The only thing you have to fear is fear itself. Still good advice.
