    You are going to Hitler-bait in every comments thread, whether it's relevant or not, aren't you?

    To those not in the know, considers A. Hitler, his bestest and baddest bro.

    The difference, and it's a significant one, between Tuskegee and the AIDS conspiracy theory is the Tuskegee subjects were already infected with syphilis when they were admitted to the study. The government did not infect them. It just didn't avail them of any treatment. The conspiracy theory surrounding AIDS is that the government was actively infecting blacks and homosexuals with an incurable (as yet) disease in order to get rid of them. Raising the specter of Tuskegee to shore up an argument in favor of the AIDS conspiracy theory is like putting up a recipient of the Darwin Award to make an argument in support of the death penalty. They're only related by a very tenuous thread...

  • FINALLY

    TT calls Obama out for something. He raked Bill Clinton over the coals for years and has done the same to Hillary. Finally he is being an equal opportunity cartoonist! I have no problem with him calling out politicans I support for real issues, but I want to see him be fair, so let's hope he keeps it up, and stops giving Obama a pass.
