I love politicartoons, I really do.
Generally, it's because I just plain enjoy political cartoons, but mostly it's because I enjoy the high levels of wank between the regular RAH RAH GO BUSH posters and the OMFGIHATEALLCONSERVATIVES posters.

Enter a fairly typical anti-war cartoon.

These always seem to bring the likes of megiloth, resident Bush Backer and active Marine, out of the woodwork to get snarly, and this is no exception.

megiloth: "Y'all are just waiting for that glorious 2000 body count mark aren't you? Maybe some sort of tie-in with the 2000 election and how Bush stole it. Or how if Al Gore would have won in 2000, we'd never be in this quagmire."

Not too wanky, really, but the liberal crowd piles on him (as per usual, I think he gets off on it; he's like a conservative version of me to some extent). They try to be rational at first, but megiloth, as usual, just prods them even more and whips them up into a frenzy.

Snippets such as this just cannot be ignored by the easily provoked:

" Leftists are pacifist pussies that would rather appease the enemy rather than go after them on their own turf."

"Timmy McVeigh is ashtray filler right now. Problem solved. His cute little buddy Terry Nichols is probably being raped in the shower right now. Once again, problem solved."

"Their turf usually involves third world shit countries, sand, and camels. In other words, it sure the fuck isn't gonna be over here."


This really sets off a storm.

Megiloth aside, others set off mini-fires of their own, including one regarding Katrina.

The whole thread is vaguely amusing, and I'm just waiting for the calls to "OMG BAN MEGILOTH!!"
Those seem to happen every few months when he really pisses someone off.
Sometimes, I think I stick around that community simply to watch him poke people with sharp sticks.

Edited to add: Though I really disagree with megiloth's political views, I found this to be highly amusing.
His bits are in regular type, what he was responding to in italics.

leftists believe that death is not a necessary outcome in solving the world's problems

ie: Sit around, talk aboot it, be really angry and write a stern letter to a dictator telling them how angry you are while circle jerking to Kum-bay-ya.

rightists are war mongering monsters who think that power, fighting, and killing and devastating examples of brute strenght with gross negligence

ie: Peace through superior firepower.

I'll take that last one, thanks.

Trust me, it's not worth it. ;)

Unless you just want to stir up the hornet nest.

Was [info]megiloth under a rock on 07/07/05? And if not, who wants to volunteer to put him under one now?

Even as someone living in London for the past 4 years (I had a job interview, you bastards! I needed that money!), it still takes me a moment's thought to recognise 07/07 as the latest (big) London bombing.

This comment is apropos of nothing.

He's just like Walter from the Big Lebowski!

While I wouldn't bring them out in polite company, my side's drooling rottweilers can be highly amusing. I've never encountered Megiloth before, but now I'm going to have to watch that comm just for the heck of it.

Megiloth is a scream.

Aside from the larger issues of Bush, the Iraq war and pro-life vs. pro-choice, I've never had a real run in with him.

Then again, I don't pick fights with him as it's more fun to egg on others to do so.

...and watch them become confused when he posts a parody of a Purina Dog Chow ad that features a stray dog chewing on the remains of what is evidently a suicide bomber and I laugh my ass off.
