No one expects the funny pages to reflect the same level of journalistic fairness that news pages do, but when a cartoonist gets it as wrong as Garry Trudeau did recently, it's worth taking the time to correct the record. Some people may think it silly to challenge the "facts" that turn up on the comics page, but Gary Trudeau missed the boat so badly a few weeks ago somebody needs to say something. Garry Trudeau has made a tidy living for the past four decades poking fun at pop culture and politics, but his pen shouldn't come with a license to blatantly distort the truth and that's what he did on with Mitt Romney. Comics are meant to make us laugh, and I like a good yuk as much as anyone, but there's nothing funny about the mean-spirited mistruths Garry Trudeau tried passing off as satire in a recent strip. Here is the strip:     Smug Liberal DJ : What are you saying, Governor Romney? That you've flipped on gay rights ? A person as principled as yo...

  Reasons to agree Flickr is a free way to store photos. Flickr is owned by Yahoo. Yahoo has thousands of employees. Yahoo employees would be more likely to look at Romney photos, and therefore learn about him, if he used flickr. Thousands of people use flickr. Flickr users would be more likely to look at Romney photos if he had a flickr account, and therefore learn about him, if he used flickr. Barak Obama has a flickr account link featured prominently on his front page. Mitt Romney's photos have some major problems. Users can not tag them, identify themselves if they are in the or comment on them. When users "tag" a photo in flickr, they help organize the photo, so Google, Yahoo, and MSN will know where that photo is, and what it is, and promote it in a Google, Yahoo, or MSN image search. If Romney got his picture taken with some Iowa students, and put that picture on his Flickr account, the Iowa students could identify themselves in the photo, and help prom...

    The estate tax is an interesting issue for Mitt Romney. Romney was a CEO that saved Bain Capital, and the 2002 Winter Olympics, but his father was credited for saving American Motor Company from bankruptcy (until he left). Anyways his dad had a lot of money but didn't give him any. I guess Romney had stocks his dad had given him, that he sold to help pay for his education, and then his dad gave some money to Mitt's kids, but Romney didn't get any of it.   When asked by Brian Lamb, "By the way, why did your father not give you any of his inheritance?" Romney said; "Well, he didn't have as much as I think some people anticipated. And I did get a check from my dad when he passed away. I shouldn't say a check, but I did inherit some funds from my dad. But I turned and gave that away to charity. In this case I gave it to a school which Brigham Young University established in his honor, the George W. Romney School of Public Management. And as ...

One year ago... I was listening to Michael Savage talk aobut the need for better mental health care, in relation to what has happened with this Cho. Cho was ruled Mentally ill by court; but let go after a hospital visit. It seems to me that we don't want to tell anyone that there is anything wrong with them. Like we don't want to hurt their feelings... Apparently Virginia Tech knew he had health problems, but didn't tell his room-mate! I have an adopted brother who is homeless in LA who has schizophrenia. The issue of mental health care means a lot to me. My brother was told by a psychologist that he had schizophrenia, while he was living with my parents. My parents tried for years to figure out what was wrong with him, and this information from the psycologist would have helped. Hillary is right. It does take a village or community. I'm glad their was a professional psychologist. Romney is also right. It takes a family. My parents can not take care of my bro...

Governor Mitt Romney and "mental health" "As the Haleigh Poutre case demonstrates, errors in human judgment occur. What is unusual is how many people involved in Haleigh's care – medical professionals, case workers and administrators from many disciplines – made errors. I welcome new systems and processes that will identify and guard against circumstances where human error may have severe consequences." Governr Mitt Romney, 03-21-2006 "A tragic crisis shone a spotlight last year on the operations and culture of the Department of Correction. This group of experts worked long and hard to identify areas of weakness in our state prison network. Their conclusion is clear: It is time to correct our system of correction." Governor Mitt Romney, 06-30-2004 Press Release Accepting the commission's report at the Souza-Baranowski Correctional Center Is it true that the mentally ill will no longer receive MassHealth coverage for psychiatric serv...
