17. Hehe. I got those.
Damn Cheney. Pretty soon I'll be selling oil machinery to rogue nations and living in a secret bunker.

He might.
The presidency takes a real toll and really ages the office-holder. I've seen this across the board.

Even W., who I don't think has made a single decision in the last 7 years and who has no conscience whatsoever, looks like a completely used-up, haggard version of the man whole stole the presidency in 2000.

If, god forbid, John McCain were to prevail, it would take about two years for him to look like the Crypt Keeper.

24. It is amazing, isn't it?
I have been rather surprised at Bush's appearance, since I assumed that a person without a conscience would be able to escape the office unscathed. Carter and Clinton also aged quite a bit, and even Bush the Elder. Reagan was about the only one I've seen who appeared relatively unchanged.


For all his faults, Johnson looked like a beaten old man by the time he left office. You could see the pain and regret of Vietnam written plainly on his face. Very sad.

10. He won't be balding......or else, he would have started by now.....
IN fact, I think that the shape of his head is one of his appeal....but his hairline is not receeding.

His Grandfather on his mother's side also had a headful of hair at a late age.....

15. I hardly think 4 years in office is going to age him like THAT.
I mean, I know he's going to have his hands full and everything, but really.

18. I didn't draw it - just liked the overall message. :)
I highly doubt he'd age that fast, after all...
