| If you could make a political cartoon, what would it be about? |

sometimes, an editorial cartoon says more than any talking head on t.v. or columnist in print. if you could scribble, what would your political cartoon say?

| 4. Better than any I could think of, Surfer |

Mine was Bush doing The Lynndie at a tortured prisoner and talking about how compassionate he is, but that's been done. Chopping at the enchanted broom is much more like what's really going on. And now Paul Dukas's great theme will run through my head all day. Thanks!

will never be broadcast:
Shot opens on a noisy elementary school playground with kids at recess. A teacher rounds up 12 students and stands them against the wall. A firing squad shoots and kills them. The rest of the kids briefly pause and look over, but then resume playing.
The announcer says: In America every day 12 children under the age of 19 are killed by guns, and many more are wounded. Nearly 3,200 teenagers fatally shoot each other every year. Don't you think it's time to care about who has access to guns?

| 5. I don't have the skills - it's a cheerleader take |

But I'd like to see a human pyramid with normal folks and soldiers at the bottom struggling to take the load. Churchy types on their shoulders. Corporate fat cats on theirs. The media on theirs. Rove and Dick Cheyney next holding Bush up. Just for fun I'd have Bush wearing a dunce hat.
The caption would be "all it takes to be top of the pile is a little help from your friends"
