I think the most pathetic thing about that particular piece of Rall's is he didn't even bother to name the "special kid" "Sam."
Hmm... "piece of Rall..." OK, I think I have my new work-friendly expletive to use. "I'm sorry, Skip, but that is SUCH a piece of Rall..."

Just so we don't forget, Rall is the same wacko that did a cartoon just days after 9/11 called "Terror Widows"...
His cartoon, "Terror Widows," depicted some of the relatives of September 11 being crass. In one panel, Rall has Larry King ask: "So, when your husband called you from the 104th floor, he knew he was going to die?" And in the next panel, the widow says: "Oh, yes-He was on fire! By the way, Larry, that's a bitchin' tie!" Another panel has a widow saying on TV, "the $3.2 million I collected from the Red Cross keeps me warm at night."
In response to criticism, Rall said "I've done a few lousy cartoons in my time that I'd love to take back, but that isn't one of them."
-This man is heartless and sick!

I spent part of one summer in the early 1980s assigned as a dormitory suitemate to Ted Rall. He was doing a ton of drugs and staying up all night. He also was dropping heavy objects down on the street 10 floors below, in one case cracking a windshield. Says something about his character, perhaps.
PS: Another suitemate, to whom he had been extremely rude and patronizing, reported Ted. And since Ted was on double-secret probabtion, he was expelled from Columbia.

You know, this kind of uninformed, disproven-by-the-actual-facts garbage flowing from the unholy cracked fountain that is Ted's mind is the reason why I stopped tedrall.isfullofcrap.com
Sure, it was fun modifying his cartoons in a way where he legally couldn't stop
me. Just as it was his Constitutional right to produce them, it was my
Constitutional right to modify them in a significant manner for the purposes of
parody, satire and commentary. And it annoyed the living shit out of him,
rendered him uttery powerless and frustrated, and I know it got to him.
However, it also meant that occasionally I'd read his columns or look at his
cartoons to find the most deranged wea points, or the moment where he went from reasonable-sounding twit to unmasked raving moonbat and just sigh with disgust.
I figure that every dollar the syndicators and independent magazines waste on Rall is a dollar they don't spend on fostering other young talented writers or cartoonists that might actually put a sane face on the moonbat left. Where the newbies might find ways to sugar the drug-laced Kool-Aid to convince gullible bluestaters to gulp it down, Rall makes no effort to disguise the acidic polluted nautral wrongness that allows the intelligent to properly vomit it out of their systems as a reflex.

I love Ted Rall. Specifically, I'd love to have Ted Rall's head in a little jar.
Think about it! A jar, half-filled with some green liquid; and in it, his floating melon, pickled in a solution of equal parts vinegar and madness. I would open the jar once or twice a week to piss in it, to re-lubricate his mis-firing synapses so that I could talk to him and see the horror of his new jar-centric life realized in his eyes.
He is a pig; half-human, half-puppet of ideology, a faximile Man, his brain suffering the transcription errors of extreme jingoistic rage.

I used to think it was enough to admit that, yes, Ted Rall IS full o' crap, but now I think the nation actually has special form of terrorism going on and it is Ted Rall the columnist. Along with Michael Moore and a few like these two (Rall and Moore), there does appear a special form of intentional infliction of harm going on, to and about not only the U.S. but pretty much 'America' as concept and place, nation of peoples.
He's full o'crap -- both Rall and Moore, actually, are -- but he's/they are also full o'crap and launching missiles at the same time.
