He’s nearly an encyclopedia of the baggage contents. That wouldn’t be so bad if he had ever really performed a leadership roll in the past.
Ken Culotta wrote this one.

This brilliantly concieved by Ken Culotta. Obama is just a giant target for jokes. How can the professional comedians and cartoonists pass this wealth of material up?
Addendum:
Many thanks to my colleague Matt Bors for posting the cartoon above on his site. That was very kind. Click here to see his posting and check out the rest of his site.
I thought I would mention that the cartoon above was not intending to make fun of Obama’s name but that, as I understand it, the name Hussein is not well thought of in Iraq. After Iraq asked us to help with their troubles and Saddam Hussein was defeated, the name Hussein became mud to the good guys. Thus, Obama probably best kept the middle name under his hat while he was there.
I’ll chide myself here for taking some artistic license in the dress for the Iraqi airport employees. I pencilled it with dress shirts, ties and name tags and the cartoon didn’t read right. So, I placed more traditional garb on the fellows.

Bruce Wayne is a qua-billionaire. Why doesn’t he break down his business and stop making those insane profits and save the world? Where are the protestors? What happens when Bruce Wayne as Batman sees pretestors day after day for months and months? See above.

While trying to come up with a 4th of July cartoon I was tossing around how to fold the race formerly known as the Firscracker 400 and the problem of gas prices. I was mentioning this to Sandra over the dinner table, when she came up with the excellent gag above.

This is a Ken Culotta gag. Ken wrote this and, as usual, it is brilliant. We’ve been working together since being in high school. Recently, living in two different parts of the state, work and family issues, we have worked together considerably less unfortunately. We got together Saturday for a short while and came up with some material. Above is one of those bits of material.

The Supreme Court pulls Washington, D.C.’s gun ban. Now the criminals will need to think twice before causing trouble.

Guess who supports the kid? North Korea (Kim Jong-Il) joined the party Monday. Worse, these are the same folks the kid wants to sit down and have tea and crumpets with. What the kid needs is a bit of military service and a few years of history classes.
Below is the pencil drawing, prior to inking.

I always love another dinosaur discovery! It occurred to me that where there’s dinosaurs, there’s oil! Thus the cartoon. I’d be more like the fellow with the bone, more interested in the dinosaur than the oil.

Below is the inked version. I added the lettering using Photoshop.
Glenn has been barking alot about drilling for oil in Alaska and off the Florida coast. I just figured that Glenn has just way too much free time. He’s just doing a radio show, an hour long TV show (What’s wrong with a three hour TV show, too???), a live comedy show all over the country (Cleary snubbing the rest of the planet), a monthly magazine, finishing one book and working on others…oh, yeah, and there’s that whole family thing….Certainly he could pursue other endeavors. So, here’s an idea I had.
