A REAL man faces shows how to deal with adversity
mike attends clinton conference
By Mike Luckovich | Thursday, November 17, 2005, 11:41 AM

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

last weeknd, hofstra university hosted a four-day clinton symposium. it looked back at every aspect of the clinton presidency from foreign and domestic policy to the way the media treated clinton.

i was invited invited to participate on a panel entitled, “EDITORIAL CARTOONISTS AND THE CLINTON PRESIDENCY, THE GIFT THAT KEPT ON GIVING.”

the panel consisted of me, two other editorial cartoonists, a cartoonist from the new yorker, plus about a half-million monica cartoons.

prior to my panel, i attended clinton’s speech that kicked-off the conference. he took credit and responsibility for the successes and failures of his administration.

after the speech, i shook his hand. he told me he follows my cartoons and mentioned one he had seen the previous sunday in the ny times.

he was very kind to me despite all the monica cartoons.

below is one of the cartoons i showed during my panel.

4. Nope - Bush does hear or see that which he does not want to hear or see.
and never takes responsibility for anything other than being GREAT for America.

And they thought Clinton was "the gift that keeps on giving"..they hadn't seen nothin' yet.
