Child’s play

Laughter may be terrific medicine, but a great cartoon causes a little pain too. Matt Bors bomb-blasts the commander in chief with his own words. (And they say the media treat this president with kid gloves.) Pat Bagley’s trio of insurance exec executioners don’t exactly have pillow talk in mind. Suffer the children, and don’t baby the newest court nominee either: Mike Lester kicks around Sonia Sotomayor, fractured ankle and all. Editorial cartoonists -- the original enfants terribles.
