Those dunderkinds Jarrett, Gibbs and Axelrod all gave various high ranges of Obama’s job creation abilities, ignorring the vast amount lost in the past year that wipes out all gains.
I slipped in my dear friend Lucile Fair who turns 102 today. If you watch the UStream video you’ll see a different person in the drawing. Click here to see it. I decided to place Lucile in the drawing despite her not really fitting in it. I thought she only turns 102 once (And most turn it at all), so I’ll place her in it anyway.
Click here to watch this cartoon being drawn. This cartoon came about because of an interview with Cristina Romer on ABC News This Week. WD from Sarasota pointed out the interview was coming up by way of Twitter. Thanks to WD for giving me the heads up. I would’ve ordinarily have missed the interview because where I am ‘The McLaughlin Group’ is what I watch when that part of ‘This Week’ is on. Ken took the concept and wrote the gag.
There goes those kooky SEIU folks again!

Thanks to J.R. Griggs for this gag. Culotta and I had kicked this idea around but couldn’t get the wording right. J.R. nailed it! Thanks, J.R.!

This sums up Obama’s run in office at this time. He has a Nobel Prize to show for his actions.
I penciled and inked this on paper. I inked right on the pencils, so the pencils were erased.
I have yet to speak to a doctor who is in favor of any part of the idea of reform. I have only spoken to a few. Especially going through recent medical procedures. But it says a lot that those on the front lines are very concerned and seemingly scared.
This was still another all digital production. Below is the digital sketch.
