Dear
Friends of Raging Pencils;
As many of you who follow this cartoon know I've been
in continued litigation (April Fools!) with the legal
counsel of Karl Rove for the past two years (April Fools!)
as a result of a
May
30,
2009 Raging Pencils cartoon in which I portrayed Osama
bin
Laden
and
Mr. Rove engaging in a homosexual
act. (April Fools!) As a result of the trial (April Fools!)
I have been court-ordered to publicly apologize to Mr.
Rove (April Fools!), to pay
a $107,00 fine (April Fools!),
and to cease all further ridiculing of political figures.
(April Fools!)
To the readers of Raging Pencils: This cartoon, and
this web site, was specifically created to offer a progressive
perspective on issues of the day. I have been very pleased
with what I've accomplished over the past eight years
but in light of the financial aspect of the court's decision
(April Fools!) I plan to immediately shift the focus
of the editorial content of my comics more heavily towards
video
games,
pets, and general situational
humor. (April Fools!)
To Mr. Rove: I am proud to live in a country in
which free speech is allowed to flourish freely and openly
(April Fools!) but the First Amendment is trickier than
it appears, so please
forgive
me for overstepping the boundaries of
parody and
stumbling into the muddy waters of libel. You are most
certainly not the treasonous homosexual (April Fools!)
illustrated in my cartoon and I wish you and your family
all the
best.
(April Fools!) I promise to never, EVER make another
cartoon like
this one again. (April Fools!)
Again, thank you to all my devoted readers for your continuing
support. I hope you all enjoy the new Raging Pencils,
beginning April 3rd. (April Fools!)
Sincerely,
Mike Stanfill |
