I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

"Editorial Cartooning: Politics Through Art"
"Stop them damn pictures!!" raged the infuriated politician, "I don't care what the paper writes about me. My constituents can't read. But, damn it, they can see the pictures!"
So said political operative Boss Tweed, who famously raged about the devastating lampoons launched by Thomas Nast -- a cartoon attack that would eventually bring down Tweed and end his corrupt reign over New York City.
Today "them #!&% pictures" zip across the new digital landscape -- needling, infuriating, engaging and entertaining people on the web, in emails, on smart phones and iPads. From traditional newsprint to the blogosphere, Facebook and the Twitterverse, political cartooning is alive and well.
From the beginning of our country's history up to today, cartoons have played an important role in US political life. Paul Revere and Ben Franklin roused the rabble with cartoons, leading a revolution. Since then, political cartoons have called us to defend the nation from foreign foes and defend our freedoms from domestic forces. They make us stop and think -- and maybe stop and laugh.
As the journalism industry figures out how to survive the shift to the light speed and micro-news cycles of the digital age, one small corner is adapting and even flourishing. Political cartoons, though as old as newspapering itself, are perfect foil to the hyper speeds and truncated attention spans of today's media consumers.
This exhibit, drawn from submissions by members of the American Association of Editorial Cartoonists, represents a selection of the nation's cartoonists and caricaturists who are expressing their views on American politics and issues of national importance. It was co-curated with cartoonist Scott Stantis of the Chicago Tribune.

The powers at Penn State were silent for 14 years while Sandusky destroyed the lives of children.
Shouldn't their football program be silenced for just as long?
- SMPA_120914_58.JPG: From Doodles to Dancing Animation:
Inspiration comes to artist Ann Telnaes for her digital animations from news items, audio files, and other research. She is one of the only US editorial cartoonists producing multiple animated cartoons per week. Her work for the website of the Washington Post reflects on current affairs in the form of 15-20 second animations.
She begins with hand-drawn sketches and then produces final inks that are scanned into a computer and digitally colored. She combines those digital files in animation software with an audio track and sound effects to produce the finished product.
Telnaes was the second woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Cartooning (2001). Before beginning her career as an editorial cartoonist, Telnaes worked for several years as a designer for Walt Disney Imagineering.
- Wikipedia Description: George Washington University School of Media and Public Affairs
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The School of Media and Public Affairs (SMPA) at the George Washington University in Washington, DC, a school in the Columbian College of Arts and Sciences, offers both undergraduate and graduate programs in journalism and political and international communication. The School's director is Frank Sesno, former CNN correspondent, creator of PBS's Planet Forward and professor.
Undergraduate Programs:
SMPA offers two undergraduate degrees in Political Communication and Journalism & Mass Communication, as well as a five year BA/MA program with George Washington's Graduate School of Political Management. The school is highly competitive within the university, and offers facilities and opportunities to SMPA students not accessible to other students, such as invititations to attend lectures and taped events filmed within the Jack Morton Auditorium and access to top-of-the-line filming/editing equipment.
Graduate Programs:
The School of Media and Public Affairs offers a Master of Arts degree in Media and Public Affairs. Additionally, the school offers a joint MA degree in Global Communication in conjunction with the Elliott School of International Affairs. With the SMPA Documentary Center, the school offers a Certificate in Documentary Filmmaking.
Media and Public Affairs Building:
The School of Media and Public Affairs is housed in the Media and Public Affairs building at 805 21st St, NW. It additionally houses the Graduate School of Political Management and the Trachtenberg School of Public Policy and Public Administration (SPPPA). The Jack Morton Auditorium is on the first floor of the building. The Morton Auditorium is also the former site of taping for CNN's Crossfire.
The university broke ground on the site (a former parking lot) in 1999 and opened it in early 2001. SMPA students were initially charged an extra $500/semester for two years to help cover the cost of the building.

I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com
and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
