Good Grief

Last Friday, in my post on the GOP's election year resurrection of the gay marriage ban, I used a 'Peanuts' analogy, implying that conservative voters were Charlie Brown to the GOP's Lucy, always getting that football yanked away at the last second.

Oddly enough, Tom Tomorrow has just released his new cartoon which uses the same analogy- this time mocking the way the media handled the Porter Goss resignation story (and its connection to the larger Cunningham/Wilkes scandal) as an example of how the media often buys into spin and misses the larger stories behind it.

In both Tomorrow's analogy and mine, one hopes eventually Charlie Brown will just tell Lucy to fuck off.
