After that remix of some old Yipster Times cartoons<\/a><\/strong> went so well, I thought it might be fun to find some more BFYP candidates among my old cartoons from around the turn of the century. This one has always remained a personal favorite, and is also special because it promoted the first event I ever worked on with long-time comrade and BBF Adam Eidinger<\/a> of DCMJ<\/a> and Prop 71 fame — the “Not A Victory Parade” protesting the US\/NATO bombing campaign in Yugoslavia<\/a> in the spring of 1999.<\/p>\n

\nThe march leaving Dupont Circle<\/strong><\/a> after the rally, heading downtown.<\/p>\n

\n“Try and impeach MY ass, willya?”<\/strong><\/a> One of my favorite placards from the march that day. This was inspired by the Elvis postage stamp released a few years before.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
