Conrad Dead

ASIDE

Pulitzer-winning cartoonist Paul Conrad dies at 86

LOS ANGELES — Paul Conrad, the political cartoonist who won three Pulitzer Prizes and used his pencil to poke at politicians for more than 50 years, has died. He was 86.

Even if you don't know who Conrad is, this single paragraph tells you everything.
  • political cartoonist for 50 years =  50 years of agitprop
  • Pulitzer Prize for political cartoons =  Nobel Peace Prize eligible.
Conservative political cartoonists needed the WWW to get a foothold.  Before 1995, or so, there were very very few;  now they seem to have achieved parity, if not dominance.   If Conrad and Herblock (Herbert Block)  are together in Heaven, they're no doubt part of a cabal working to undermine God. I pulled these two Conrad 'toons  with a random Google search.

He's not even all that good of an artist. Reminds me of the notebooks of high schoolers who spent their class time doodling instead of listening. All that's missing are the blue lines.

Is it just me or does everyone regard a Pulitzer Prize as something lefties give each other for talking the line? It has become just another trophy for losers in my own opinion.

The Pulitzer, like the Academy Awards and the Nobel Peace Prize, and inclusion on the New York Times best selling book list seem to belong exclusively to, not just liberals, but leftists who attack the American ideal and traditions. Think Al Gore and Jummy Carter.
