I know far side isn't exactly political, but I'm an arts guy so I'll say that absurdism is an inherently political choice.

I just love reading funny little cartoons. I guess they were the precursor to memes. I don't even care if they're lib or right wing bullshit, I recently read a collection of Pat Oliphant's work, and even though most of it wasn't very politically accurate, nor was it particularly funny, it was still enjoyed ironically.
