This biting political cartoon IRS torture depicts two burly executioners in hoods, one tattooed with '1040', standing in a stone dungeon with torture tools on the wall. They converse via caption about concerns over a scandal's effect on their image, while two emaciated, shirtless prisoners hang from chains nearby. The scene satirizes the IRS scandal cartoon, highlighting fears of damaged reputation in a medieval dungeon IRS parody. Elements like the IRS sign and hanging chains emphasize the tax agency controversy illustration, portraying the agency as tormentors in this humorous take on IRS scandal. Overall, it's a sharp commentary on scandal effect on IRS reputation, using executioner torturing taxpayers to drive home the point of bureaucratic overreach.

The cartoon depicts Mitt Romney chest-deep in floodwaters from Hurricane Sandy, holding an Etch A Sketch device displaying the words CUT FEMA. The scene references Romney's earlier comments questioning the need for a separate federal emergency agency and his campaign's subsequent clarification attempt using an Etch A Sketch analogy. Published days after the storm made landfall, the image ties the candidate's policy stance to the immediate needs of disaster victims in the Northeast. The visual uses the toy's erasable feature to illustrate perceived shifts in position on federal disaster management.

A political cartoon published November 1, 2012, shows a headless figure in a Romney-labeled suit with an abolish FEMA button. The figure stands beside a speech bubble referencing escape from a storm with only a suit. The image responds to Mitt Romney's earlier statements favoring elimination of the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Hurricane Sandy made landfall days earlier, prompting federal disaster response. The cartoon uses the visual of a missing head and storm backdrop to highlight the timing of Romney's past position on the agency.
