La Cucaracha is a syndicated strip. Last I heard it's printed in about sixty newspapers. So it's not like he drew this up just for The Bee.

The paper, however, does have the responsibility to screen out patently offensive strips before publishing each day's comics page.

I was surprised when I saw Lalo's syndicated strip. My thought was this is a political cartoonist,why does he have syndicated strip?

Usually, I haven't any problem with political commentary in comic strips. Doonesbury, Boondocks and La Cucharacha don't really bother me at all.

This morning the cartoon Bizarro had a caption entitled "Antique Viewpoints Roadshow" and the antique viewpoint up for appraisal was regarding the person's viewpoint on gay marriage. The person's viewpoint was worthless because it was so antique. Needless to say, I was livid!
