Dilbert today is worthÂ triple its weight in Harvard political philosophers. Scott Adams is no boot-burnisher.

This cartoon cuts to the heart of the fraud of contemporary democracy.

I am amused to hear talk of politiciansÂ having mandates when votersÂ had a choice of squirrel abusers or secretary stranglers.Â

Amazing that there is far more truth on the comics page than on the editorial pages in this country. The cartoonists do not waste time genuflecting to the Official Lies, and they do not stay confined within the boundaries of respectable commentary.
