No, it's called a caricature. -- nm - mara Nov 5, 12:52
Not at all, it's a caricature of a big ear'ed, prominent teeth'ed guy. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 5, 12:52
Seriously? The big ears, the big teeth...? No offense? -- nm - Mop Nov 5, 12:49 4
- What big teeth? His mouth is closed. (We *are* both seeing the Tic-Tac-Toe cartoon, right?) -- nm - TWuG Nov 5, 12:52 1
  - Scroll down six cartoons to the one by Mike Lane. -- nm - Mop Nov 5, 12:55
- McCain doesn't exactly come out of it looking like Miss World. It's caricature. -- nm - Loyola Nov 5, 12:50 1
  - *trying desperately not to imagine McCain with really nice legs* -- nm - Max Nov 5, 12:51
nah, it makes him look like Jimmy Carter -- (link) - Max Nov 5, 12:48 [Image]
Not at all. Do you? -- nm - Loyola Nov 5, 12:48
No. Can't even imagine why someone would think it is. -- nm - TWuG Nov 5, 12:48
on the surface, no. There might be some imagery involved that I'm unfamiliar with, though. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 5, 12:47
No offense, but those things are stoopid, even on Halloween -- nm - Guigue Nov 5, 12:46
