Good morning, all.

Looks like I’m not alone. Believe me, nothing short of changing our comics page generates this many notes from readers. So if you want to say Jim Ivey has finally eclipsed the standing of Snuffy Smith in this community, well, then I might have trouble arguing with you.

On Sunday, I discussed the joke of a sentence handed down to Jim Ivey, convicted felon, former GOP wunderkind and all-around sleazebag. To be honest, I thought I might stand alone on this one. Ivey, still popular in many circles despite his stealing ways, has friends in relatively high places in this community. In fact, it is directly to those friends I tied his questionably lenient sentence. In a world a frustrations, I wondered if this community could summon up enough outrage for one more injustice.

Well, if you think folks aren’t mad about this Ivey sentence, then you’re fooling yourself.
