Yes indeed, Walter. Poltical cartoonists/commentators go way back. Daumier was gaoled for his satires.
You sure paula? 'bout the birthday?
Honoré Daumier
1808-1879, french caricaturist, painter and sculptor. He was deeply interested in people, especially the underprivileged. In his lifetime he was known chiefly as a political and social satirist, but since his death recognition of his qualities as a painter has grown. In 1830, after learning the still fairly new process of lithography, he began to contribute political cartoons to the anti-government weekly Caricature. He was an ardant Republican and was sentenced to six months' imprisonment in 1832 for his attacks on Louis-Philippe. Daumier's paintings were probably done for the most part fairly late in his career. He remained practically unknown up to the time of an exhibition held at Durand-Ruel's gallery in 1878, the year of his death.

I'm glad to see so many people agree that cartoons are a serious and legitimate art form. I love cartoons, all of them from graphic novels and comic books to single panels and newspaper strips. I went to an art school that specifically centered on this art form and very soon hope to have my own cartoons published.
Hello, Aldistar
Long time no see!
Send one of your efforts here, when/if you can!
I just finished reading Art Spiegelman's Maus for the second time. Chilling, impressive read.
