Saturday Snickers

Steven Hayward has again compiled at Power Line a collection of cartoons, recaptioned photos, and snarky sayings for our enjoyment. Some of my favorites described below:

Cartoon of Hillary Clinton standing between husband Bill and Donald Trump, holding Bill's hand, gesturing toward Donald. Both Bill and Donald drawn with pig snouts and ears. Her voice balloon says:
How can someone like this be president?
Two photos, featuring Michelle Obama quotes. On the left Michelle speaking:
Trump's sexual boasts have "shaken me to my core."
On right a photo of Beyonce in tiny bikini twerking, captioned:
"Beyonce could not be a better role model for my girls."
Two photos, one each of Hillary and Donald. His is captioned:
Everything that is wrong with our culture.
Hers is captioned:
Everything that is wrong about our government. 
Closeup photo of a dead fly, lying on its back, captioned:
The fly that landed on Hillary Clinton during the debate, his death ruled a suicide.
Photo of a woman's hand holding an opened copy of 50 Shades of Grey, with latte in foreground, captioned:
If American women are so outraged at Trump's use of naughty words,
Who in the hell bought 80 million copies of 50 Shades of Grey? 
A cartoon, done in the style of Mesoamerican art, depicting human sacrifice and ritual, captioned:
In 1487, five years before Columbus' arrival, the Aztec people sacrificed as many as 84,000 men, women, and children at the re-consecration of the Great Pyramid of Tenochtitlan.
Happy Indigenous People's Day!
The saintliness of Native Americans has been exaggerated by tree-huggers. They were flawed humans like the rest of us.
