The Obama Inaugaration (Edited Version)
I thought there was a slight disconnect between President Obama's serious speech and the celebratory atmosphere in the crowd.

The Crowd:

My Soundtrack to the Inauguration:
Bishop Lamont's "Grow Up" is my favorite hip hop track of 2008. I've been listening to it a lot lately. I think it captures perfectly the "pull up your pants" mood sweeping across America, and consequently, the rest of the world. Just as importantly, courtesy of Dr Dre, it's got a damn good beat.

Hey Barack The Builder..can i get a quote?
"Yes we can...but all this lott'l 'aff to come out...who put this in?"
Heh-heh.
I wish I owned a magazine. I would give you a whole page (maybe two if you trash-talked the cross-eyed one often) to play!
Love your work! :)
And the song is indeed very appropriate and smooooth.
Give us a job!
I know a talent when I see one....YOU'RE HIRED.
If we're in deep shit, don't we need a plumber instead of a builder?
Joe the Plumber, where are you when we need you?
In Iraq. Seriously. You can't make this shit up. Someone sent him as an "embedded journalist". His reaction, "Journalists shouldn't be embedded with troops!" What insight!
No, if they're embedded they'll write about what they see. One reason the Israelis woldn't let journalists into Gaza while they pounded it.
Joe should stick to plumbing. Oh wait...
Joe The Plumber: Not A Licensed Plumber
I have launched your cartoon into the email timewaster's realm. I do believe you are on the way to a Pulitzer.
Actually, I just thought it was funny that once he was embedded, it sounds like, "holy shit, this is dangerous, get me out of here." Though I do disagree with embedded journalists, I see it more of a way for the pentagon to control the news of the war, as well.
@ Scot - The "timewaster's realm" - haha! I'll look forward to receving it, then.
@ Tyler -
Barack was the right choice, but, not to belabor a point...
Yikes! What a mess to inherit!
All that misery aside, loved the post, Fluxy!
Not to worry. Based on his supporters' expectations, it shouldn't take the President more than a couple of weeks to sort out the economy.
In these trying times, we could all (including Obama) use one of these. :)
Very cool.
Unlike my effort:
That brings cool to a whole different level, doesn't it! You look incredibly peeved. Laughing hysterically, flux ...
