About this Book
Why do we have so many cartoons about the lovesick-diaper-astronaut compared to cartoons about Iraq? Because that’s what the cartoonists really drew this year. Our annual Best Political Cartoons of the Year book is a history book. Unlike other “Best of” compilations, we don’t ask cartoonists to submit their best cartoons to us – we pick the cartoons. We’ve found that cartoonists like to pick their most “important” cartoons, so asking for cartoonists for submissions gets us lots of cartoons about Iraq, President Bush and civil rights, and not the cartoons that were drawn about celebrities and popular culture. Our book reflects what cartoonists really drew in 2007, in the correct proportions.
