Merry Christmas: Top ten cartoons of the week

The Christmas spirit has invaded cartoon world, with Santa and his elves predictably dominating our most-popular toons this week.

Gary McCoy topped out list with his cartoon about a father asking Santa for a peaceful world, which any parent can relate to. Chris Weyant also drew a popular cartoon along similar lines.

There were some pokes and prods as well. Dave Granlund draw a funny cartoon featuring politicians running to an airplane leaving Washington, D.C., the only time you see them hurrying to do anything. And I enjoyed Randall Enos' jab at the release of the Epstein Files, with two guys at the bar having a redacted conversation.
