Tho’ much is taken, much abides; and though
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
- Alfred Lord Tennyson
What's really funny about that top cartoon is that it's nearly identical to a cartoon that Cincinnati editorial cartoonist Jim Borgman did in 1980 ... about how Jimmy Carter was being much more "military" in his 1980 campaign than he was in his 1976 campaign.
Actually, the view should be of the baby behind the driver's wheel, while the rest of us poor sots huddle in the backseat -- we're stuck going along for the ride.
