The GEICO television commercials gave us the so-called "Cavemen" who pitched auto insurance and spun off into a sitcom. Evidently the concept has traction because Tom Tomorrow gives us a "caveman" turned spokesman for the Rightwing shibboleths of our time. If this is (fair & balanced) parody, so be it.

Dan Perkins (born 5 April 1961 in Wichita, Kansas), better known by the pen name “Tom Tomorrow”, is an editorial cartoonist. His weekly cartoon, This Modern World, a comic strip that comments on current events from a strong liberal populist perspective, appears regularly in approximately 150 papers across the U.S. and the online magazines Salon.com and Working for Change. The strip debuted in 1990 in SF Weekly.
Perkins, a long time resident of Brooklyn, New York, currently lives in Connecticut. He received the Robert F. Kennedy Award for Excellence in Journalism in both 1998 and 2002.
When he is not working on projects related to his comic strip, he writes a daily political weblog, also entitled This Modern World, which he began in December 2001.
