The quick wit and insightful observations of Jack Ohman are evident in this, his first collection of editorial cartoons for Pelican. Ohman lampoons President Clinton, Newt Gingrich, and O. J. Simpson. The social issues of race, homelessness, and abortion are also subjects for his commentary. Even the more recently hotly debated topics of cloning and the Clinton Coffees are criticized.
