This Week's Sneak Peek

You're not in for a major national news headline issue this week here at Berge's Cartoon Blog. We might be headed for war with Syria over weapons of mass destruction. Hundreds are killed in Bangladesh. The Lieutenant Governor of Texas has called for the Sacramento Bee to fire its editorial cartoonist over a cartoon critical of Texas's vaunted laissez faire attitude toward occupational safety. I'm patiently waiting for Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson to be David Letterman's Stooge of the Night.

And somehow, my deadline was too early for the news of NBA center Jason Collins coming out as 34, black and gay.

So, unless you already recognize the person in this week's sneak peek, you may be left scratching your head wondering why I settled on my topic.
