So… the last 10 years…. yeah.

Puzzling to know that Ronald Reagan was so pre-occupied with masculin bodies. Was he a closet homosexual???

As for your conjecture that Reagan only put us in “minor proxy wars”, Reagan funded and armed Iraq during the Iran-Iraq War (which created quite a problem later on), and funded and armed Afghan mujahideen in the Afghanistan War against the USSR (and those fellows later became Al Qaeda and elements of the Taliban). Those weren’t minor, even if America was only involved via equipment and training. The human cost, and the political cost, was devastating. I’m not going to get into the right or wrong of involving ourselves in these conflicts, but they were in no way minor. We’re still dealing with the aftermath of these decisions in 2012. Soldiers and civilians are dying every day for these decisions.

Reagan cut regulatory restrictions of corporations, creating the mega-corporations we have today, he slashed funding for the National Endowment for the Arts, slashed funding for mental health programs, sending thousands of mostly Vietnam vets out of psychiatric institutions and onto the streets, he gave legal amnesty to a few million illegal immigrants (I’m sure some here think this was a good thing), and his environmental record is disastrous — slashed EPA, opened up more land to drilling than any other president, tried to gut the Clean Air and Clean Water Acts. I’m sure I could think of more; that’s just off the top of my head. On the plus side Reagan did attempt to add more taxes on corporations and tried to make it easier for small businesses (somewhat nullified by his pro-corporation slant).

[That muscle-bound torso is funny because I remember seeing a Marvel comic in the 80s called something like Reagan's Raiders in which he was some sort of 'roided-out super-soldier on the march against commies.]

The Falkland Islands war; yuppies; significant optimism about the way mankind was on an upward track into the future.

But that might’ve been because I wasn’t in an industrial manufacturing family.

That has nothing to do with ADD, that’s true for all people who doodle. Like chewing gum and daydreaming, it actually *helps* concentrating.

First off – hello, Sweden. I really want to visit you some day.

Second – remind people that the reason China is strong is because they loosened their grip on the people and opened it up to capitalism. There is still a lot of socialism, and a one party system (instead of doodles, their delegates fall asleep), but the freedom they have extended to the people is why it has been so successful.

And dunno… headless male torso… why would that be fetishism stuff? People who want to practice drawing people often concentrate on some specific part, like the torso or eye above. Google for instance “draw human torso” or pick up a book on how to draw a human body.

The more realistic drawings are nothing special, in my “I can’t draw one bit” opinion, but the caricatures look pretty good.

RR & MT were a disgusting confluence of evil: maybe Ronnie gets a little more of a pass as he was more just stupid and not pure forged evil, but the day they meet in their hell will be a great one for humanity.

It’s odd to think that he was drawing this stuff while he was a was supposed to be focused on leading the world. 
 
For some reason it reminds me of the oft-repeated line: “I’m Brian Fellows!”

If it was done in the margins, it would have looked like my math homework.

Which seems to be pretty much what the American media are doing.
