That's a real life non fantasy show, one that's about the work of some Super Zeros, instead of Super Heroes.

Instead of saving the world, these folks are well on the way to ruining it.

The Chief Occupier , the Queen , wicked witch,the court jester, clown and fool. Seems like a complete picture of the current situation.

I think it says a lot about our culture that it wasn't enough just to 'shop Hillary's head onto Silk Spectre's body; the "artist" felt the need to make her butt and stomach bigger and her breasts droopier. I don't see any expanded guts on any of the men.

If you're going to criticize politicians, at least show a little intelligence and criticize their policies. If the best you can come up with is "Hurr hurr, she's old and fat!!!1", I see no reason to take your opinion seriously.

Wing-nuts are such *goooood* losers.

This kind of parody is really, in terms of quality and owing nothing to its actual content, really just a step above scribbling nasty things on the doors of public bathroom stalls.

So I'm not surprised that it's misogynistic, not terribly clever and that the Photoshop work is kinda crap.

My thing is...why is Nancy Pelosi The Joker rather than Rorschach?

This is parody - nothing to get worked up about. It comes with being the party in power.

Joe, would you be so critical had the piece lampooned the Bush Cabinet? It seems to me that the line between "misogynistic (and) not terribly clever" and "laugh-out-loud funny and spot-on" usually depends on which way your political meter tilts.

Bad Photoshop and faux sagging breasts are bad Photoshop and faux sagging breasts, no matter where you stand politically.

If you can think of any "Bush kinda looks like a monkey!" parody I praised on this blog, I'll be glad to apologize for it.

You can satirize left leaning politicians as savagely as right-leaning politicians, but you've got to do it well and it has to actually be funny. Otherwise why bother? I think of Phil Hartman and then Darrell Hammond lampooning Bill Clinton as a lecherous overgrown boy or SNL's current pretty dead-on skewering of Joe Biden.

Badly altering a popular movie poster and adding insulting nicknames for politicians you don't like...that's just crap no matter who's doing it.

It was rather funny, Joe. Now tell us about suicide again. No I guess you didn't compare W to a monkey but you WERE thinking it in your heart of hearts. Still a sin, laddie

Did I ever think: "Man, our President is a dick and I disagree with many of his policies?" during the Bush administration?

Of course I did.

Disagreeing with someone's politics - or even disliking them and mocking them - is no sin.

Slapdash photoshop and nicknames 7-year-olds could top? Whole other story.

What's good for liberal humorists is good for conservatives. But something tells me P.J. O'Rourke could top "Dr. McSocialism."
