What you’re looking at

This satirical cartoon depicts two figures golfing, with the caption "It Ain't Right!" The figure on the left appears to be a politician or authority figure complaining to another golfer. In the background, there's a sign reading "CONGRESSIONAL CAMPAIGN," suggesting this critiques political behavior during election season. The joke likely satirizes hypocrisy: a politician complains about unfair golfing rules while simultaneously engaging in questionable campaign practices. The cartoon mocks the disconnect between politicians' public complaints about fairness and their actual conduct. The exaggerated caricature style was typical of early 20th-century Life magazine satire. Without clearer identification of the specific figures or date, the precise political target remains unclear, though the satire targets political double standards.
