3. I've seen several political cartoons with the same theme.

I think this could become a HUGE embarassment for the White House. The Democrats need to pick this up and run with it.

4. Oh really?
I hadn't seen any yet. Well, thats what happens when you draw political toons. Easy to get repeat scenarios. Oh well.

I just hope these type of images get some real press, makes them really look incompetent and guilty. :)

6. take a look at the political cartoon thread
linked in my subject line

I have three bush/cheney puppet toons (and there were more) best were by Ann Telnaes and Tom Toles (imho)

or browse around the cagle/slate cartoon site.

I think some were inspired by Maureen Dowd's "Charlie McCarthy Hearings" column last week.

9. Regardless, it's a very good cartoon
And perhaps, the more the merrier? The more cartoonists like you depict the pretender-in-chief as the puppet that he is, the more impact you might on the American psyche.

5. Does anyone have any thoughts on...
Getting my Cartoons some exposure? Not for money,although I wouldn't pass it up, but for making some concise points. Just want as many people to see them as possible. Want to do what I can for the Cause. To send W. to the Unemployment Lines.

Thanks

I tried to build one from scratch,The hard way without a web wizard or anything and could never get a result I liked. But I do Have online storage. I checked Out those toons. Where were the puppet ones though? Just curious to see the other setups for that premise.

11. cool toon!
well drawn. i'd go with nostamj's cartoon posts, lots of people see those. he is quite useful and appreciated with his toon compilations. and i think you've been published on bartcop haven't you? keep scribbling, now more than ever, bush needs to be attacked with pens and pencils and ridicule, toward his eventual blessed absence.
