I was looking for the "media horr" cartoon. Or the "Blackula" blood-sucker cartoon. Or the "spending like a drunken sailor" cartoon.

Love the doctor's "KMarx" name tag for the July 21 national healthcare cartoon.

I've got two more he forgot to put in his cartoon.

Medicare - 800 Billion
Social Security 1 Trillion

My opinion you get rid of all three of these wasteful socialist programs and put big government spending behind us

1. Social Security - would be the first to go
2. Health Care - would be the next
3. Medicare - would be the next

Total Savings to the American Tax Payer

Um 2,800 Billion - now that's progress and what happens to the deficit if we get rid of these three socialist programs? I get to keep a lot more of my take and do not have to pay into such a out of whack system.
