7/13 Mike Luckovich: Built to last
Readers are reacting to an editorial cartoon by Mike Luckovich about the 75th wedding anniversary of Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter.
The cartoon, which appeared in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Tuesday, is also a nod to the Carters’ long support of the homebuilding charity, Habitat for Humanity. It depicts the Carters, homebuilding tools in hand, looking at a finished house with a label “Carters’ 75yr Marriage” across the roof. Luckovich captioned the cartoon “Built to last.”
