So my classroom mentor uses political cartoons constantly in class, and I've begun to do the same in our Social Science class. I will actually be creating an ongoing assignment for my students in the next week or so, who from February-March will be finding one political cartoon per week, and will be writing about the political commentary in each cartoon (maybe even in a blog that I have them create....? I'll update you on how this goes).
This site provides a massive quantity of indexed, cross referenced, and highly informative political cartoons on a huge variety of subjects. You can search for nearly anything that is political, and probably will find a wealth of cartoons that you could use in a class.
This site even allows you to subscribe to a daily email list, but I have to admit it has just gone into my spam filter for the past few weeks, and I haven't noticed the loss. So I leave that decision up to you.
