Roz from Monsters Inc

In an online "mashup" - a song or illustration that combines two different elements - Esquire magazine has highlighted an illustration that compares Kim Davis, the Kentucky county clerk who has refused to issue marriage licenses for same-sex couples, to the character Roz in the film "Monsters, Inc."

Pixar, which produced "Monsters, Inc.", describes Roz this way on their website: "She is a grouchy brown snail-like monster with a tuft of white and grey pointed hair on the top of her head, wears a dark red jacket and black horn-rimmed glasses, and is constantly frowning."

While Esquire did not create the illustration, which was posted on Reddit by user RenoGuy76, it reproduced it with commentary by writer Matt Miller:

At first glance, this mashup of Kim Davis and Roz from Monsters Inc. seems flawless. They both make a living as boring bureaucratic paper pushers charged with keeping antiquated systems afloat through the mindless filling out of forms. But, not so fast, RenoGuy76. Roz actually does her job, regardless of the backward religious ideologies that she may or may not have. Also, Roz turns out to be the ultimate hero in Monsters Inc. as an undercover agent flushing out corruption. Kim Davis is not that. Not that at all.
