It’s time for Animaniacs

8:33 pm — 

Animaniacs-Presidents video

I admit it, I love cartoons. I even go down to the workout room just to watch Spongebob.
One of my favorites shows as a kid was Warner Brother’s Animaniacs. Not only did Yacko, Wacko, and Dot entertain, but they offered a variety of cultural and political satire during the early 90s. Sometimes they even presented a few history lessons. The Animaniacs’ Presidents song provides a silly review of our country’s past presidents with an ending that should be especially amusing to anyone involved in the media.

State budget- passed too soon!

7:14 pm — 

On August 22nd, I made this sketch to depict the public’s growing impatience over our lawmakers’ disputed indecision on the State budget. Ironically, Blagojevich just so happened to sign the budget on the same day that I planned on sending in the cartoon. Obviously, I was a bit late on coming up with this idea, but hopefully you will still get a kick out of it.
