Darkbeanie, this comic isn't meant to "reach out." It's a cheap laugh at a few deserving targets. Hell, the Rude Pundit does this kind of stuff (in print) every day. And, considering what Rove did to McCain in the 2000 primaries, Goatse wouldn't have been inappropriate. NatLamp had a decent run. Not all of their stuff aged well, but some of it, especially from Doug Kenney and Michael O'Donoghue, still shines. Happily, I discovered SPY when NatLamp started to flag. *snicker*
