Two things I’m not a fan of:  The Dallas Cowboys, media-generated stars, and Hef (bonus thing).  With that being said, The New York Post, a beacon of integrity and pillar of the Constitution’s Freedom of the Press, continues it’s assault on the least common denominator with it’s latest cartoon.

New York Post - January 28, 2009

Yes, Jessica Simpson looked a smidge different in the lastest photos, with jokes being easily made, or “Would You or Wouldn’t You” games being played (of course we all still would), but why does making pretty obvious jokes result in the obese Sean Delonas still getting paid?  Last I checked, we already have Frank Caliendo to fill such a void.  Are the creative, and thought-provoking cartoonists, such as Mike Peters and Mike Luckovich, going the way of their print journalist colleagues?  Sadly, it seems so.

I don’t know why this struck such a nerve with me, especially given my aforementioned distaste for all parties involved, but for once I’ll go the non-Jerk route and stick up for the over-hyped targets.  Besides, this portly asshole has already shown his abject laziness in the past and apparently felt obligated to illustrate it  for us once again (see what I did there with the pun?).  

Mr. Delonas, fat cartoonist, we anxiously await your cartoon featuring the Obama daughters not having a black, adult, father-figure as a daily presence in their lives.  Maybe you could even parallel the Oval Office to prison by drawing some bars?  That’d be a real stitch…

Oh, and Jessica, feel free to drop me a line with an offer to take me out to dinner for sticking up for you.  It’s the least you could do.  Seriously.
