This 16mar10 edition of ‘It Takes a Village Idiot’ cartoon was ripped from The Union’s website (link at left).  These cartoons are a regular feature of the newspaper, and drawn by one of our county’s resident treasures and RR reader R.L. ‘Bob’ Crabb.  Bob attempts to fly pretty much down the center stripe of the political highway. Most of the time he makes it, but old school conservatives like me often see him holding a slight heading to the left, and debating that crab angle (pun intended) is one of the pleasures of his company.  This time he must have been caught unawares by a gust to the right.  Thank you Bob!

    I’ve always enjoyed Bob’s look at the world in his cartoons. I think he and I have a lot more in common than we might both believe.

    I tend to like everybody, even if I don’t agree with their politics. It’s made working in a small town where everybody knows everybody (or is related to them) a lot easier.
    Thanks, fellas.

    I appreciate your comments. As we move forward, though, I am reminded of an old bit by Richard Pryor, as follows…
    Rich is standing in his yard, crying because his pet monkey has died. The big dog that lives next door jumps over the fence and approaches Pryor…
    “What’s the matter, Rich?”
    “My monkey died.”
    “No!…That monkey that used to run around the yard here?”
    “Y-yeah..”
    “Darn! …I was gonna eat him too!”
    The dog consoles Pryor and then heads back toward the fence. Before he jumps over, he turns to Pryor and says…
    “Now you know tomorrow I’m gonna be chasin’ you again!”
    Be forewarned.

    Bob,
    Always enjoy your insight, regardless of the target. Wish I could write with same clarity that you draw.
