Welcome Cox and Forkum Readers!
Thursday, May 19, 2005
I would like to thank Allen Forkum of the infamous duo of political cartoonists, Cox and Forkum, for linking to one of my posts (Visit them to find out which one.) and for blogrolling me! I greatly admire and enjoy their work. As a still fairly new blogger, I am honored by their notice and appreciate the Cox'n'Forkumlanche I'm currently weathering. (I have already set a new record for hits in a day. Yippee!) I also appreciate the fact they they permit us bloggers to post their cartoons on our own blogs.
Much more importantly, their cartoons do an excellent job of essentializing current events and of translating sometimes complicated analyses into an instantly-graspable visual format. Their work is greatly accelerating the process of introducing rational thought into the political discourse. If my blog grows up one day to be a tenth as effective as their site, I'll count it a success in that respect.
