With Obama,  a Czar is born every day!

Below are the pencils to the cartoon. You can see just how powerful color is in bringing this message across.

I actually penciled this back in February and inked it on an airplane going from London to Washington, D.C. I waited on this to use while we were gone. I sent this from our hotel room in Charleston, South Carolina.

This what I see happening. Stimulus money going to a select group of workers in the road building industry, while the rest of us are stuck in the traffic snarls they cause. I’ve been there and watched this stuff happen. Much worse that even more of my tax dollars are used to perpetuate these sweetheart deals of unneeded, costly roads that go on for miles so that the road builder makes an even larger profit.

No rough sketch for this one. This was the second editorial cartoon I’ve drawn entirely in the computer.I had two other ideas both reflecting on Obama’s odd speech about the mid-east. Below is one of the two. I was going to draw Obama with heavy boots stomping through egg shells. Then I saw via Twitter a survey of religious views that there are some three times as many atheists as muslims in the U.S. Unfortunately, I sw this very late and really didn’t assemble the cartoon well.
