Why Do They Kill Me?

After Bush and Cheney came to power in 2000, Tim Kreider, who previously penned single-panel non-sequiturs in the tradition of B. Kliban, turned his bitter humour on more timely, political issues. His cartoons have been, in the words of Ted Rall, among the most viscerally anti-Bush work around.' As reality has become ever more nightmarish, Kreider has been driven to push the limits of humour to parody. Cynical, astute, blackly hilarious and deeply biased, these cartoons are the equivalent of rifle bullets fired into the heart of the Bush administration.'
