My son's "Gross W. Bush" cartoon

[Chiyo-chichi]

My 8-year old drew this cartoon for me on the envelople of a card.
The pumpkin says: "Eeeew! I stepped in Gross W. Bush with my brand new shoes. Oh, man! They were Nikes!"
George W. Bush says, "Ow. Get offa me, I reckon."
The close-up is of Gross W. Bush.
A budding political cartoonist.
My son types this message for DU: i felt like it.

[Glenda]

[Olney Blue]

[Chiyo-chichi]

6. You just did.

He's right here with me reading this thread and doing a happy dance that you all like it.
He says thank you.

12. Hey soonerhoosier's son

[Submariner]

7. Now we know where the next Doonesbury is coming from

Congratulations soonerhoosier. You done good.

[YankeyMCC]

8. I see a bright future for the boy

:)

[leftchick]

9. LOL! Fantastic!

You should be very proud! He should meet my son who made my sig line just before his nineth Birthday!

:toast:

[Chiyo-chichi]

39. I've enjoyed you son's drawing since you first posted it.

Props to your young Dem.

[npincus]

10. Awww... that's cute!

[John Gauger]

11. I especially like his commentary:

I felt like it. He doesn't have to explain himself to us. His art speaks for itself.

Looks to me like he will grow up to have a coherent understanding of the issues. Which already puts him ahead of most voters.

[Generic Other]

13. That should be printed on a t-shirt!!

So cool.

[Deb]

14. Awesome!

If he's not too big for a hug, give him one for me. Glad he wanted to shared that cartoon with us, tell him I'll be voting with his future in mind this year.

[neebob]

15. Somebody has to step in Gross W. Bush

so the rest of us don't have to. Thanks, Pumpkin!

Great job, Kidly Soonhoosier!

[Chiyo-chichi]

17. My son says:

you have a very very good point.

[neebob]

18. Yes

It's worth ruining a pair of Nikes, I think, as long as it doesn't make more Gross W. Bush. Kidly Soonerhoosier is very wise.

[immoderate]

16. That is wonderful!

It's worthy of a frame!

[Patchuli]

19. Yeah, I wonder how the prezeldent feels

knowing the kids can't stand him either?!

I love the part about the Nikes! heheee

[Quantess]

21. Pretzeldent

How do you choke on a pretzel?!
Even the youngest members of society know, that if you choke on a pretzel, there's gotta be something wrong with you.

[Patchuli]

26. There must be something wrong with me

'cause I even misspelled 'pretzeldent!' :silly:

[gumby]

20. Printed it out to show

to the OLD cartoonist in the other room.

We both laughed.

[neebob]

22. Update: My 17-year-old son likes this, too.

Kidbob sez, "Right on!"

[readmoreoften]

23. You're looking at my new desktop wallpaper.

I'm serious.

[rhiannon55]

25. LOL! Same here

I just showed this thread to my favorite resident cartoon appreciator (I won't call him mr.rhiannon55--HaHa) and he asked me to send the link to him so he can put it up as wallpaper. He loved it! And he knows his cartoons, let me tell you!

[in_cog_ni_to]

[JudyM]

45. The pumpkin should 'stay the course.'

[ooshaunaoo]

46. That is so funny.

I especially love the close-up of Gross W. Bush. It's such a realistic portrayal of him. LOL.

[Chiyo-chichi]

50. He did capture that "deer-in-the-headlights" look.

This was all a surprise to me. He wouldn't even let me watch while he drew it.

[Sugar Smack]

51. I LOVED it. Your son is amazing and very funny. BTW,

I alerted on our "Stupidman" upthread.

[Glimmer of Hope]

48. Love it!!

[Sugar Smack]

49. "Get offa me, I reckon" and then the CLOSEUP of George's face!

Nominated. That is the purest brilliance I've seen. I aspire to it. :applause: :rofl: :patriot:

[goclark]

52. Fantastic! nt

[Lost-in-FL]

53. That is so cute!

[Canuckistanian]

54. That's even better than the ones Dubya draws!

And I love the handy visual aids - the arrows, numbered sequences and even a closeup!

[Red Right and BLUE]

55. Get offa me I reckon!

Hahahahaha!!

[Truthy Nessy]

56. I love it!

I had a great laugh. I hope you hung it up on the fridge.

My four year old grandson now looks at clowns and says they are George Bush, after I was online looking at a Bush clown cartoon.

He also is very aware of the Dick Cheney's crooked smirk. He caught me with my crooked mouth when I was not too happy at one of his goofy things he did. He said I looked like Dick Cheney. Kids do pick up on things. I have curtailed his grandpa in expressing in detail his frustrations with W and Cheney. We don't want our tyke getting into any trouble with his kindergarten teacher.

[Chiyo-chichi]

57. Same here.

Someone suggested that we make his toon into a t-shirt. He said "I'd get in trouble at school."

[L0oniX]

58. The SS will be visiting your son soon.

[Chiyo-chichi]

60. In that case, he will point out to them

that he merely equated George Bush with poop. Note that the pumpkin says that he stepped "IN", not "on" Gross W. Bush. The pumpkin, unlike the rest of us, can scrape the Gross W. Bush off of his shoe and continue on his way. He is not implying any harm to the president. Now, they might be visiting you,L0oniX, for inferring intent to harm the president.

[Straight Shooter]

59. "Gross W. Bush" is LOL funny, but the "dad" with the 2 hearts is so cool.

:thumbsup:

[Stockholm]

61. Kick for the future!

Great kid.

[rhiannon55]

62. I'm sending the link to this to my grandchildren.

Brandon, aged 10, and Kaeli, aged 7, will love it. They can't stand GW Bush and blame everything that happens on him. They live in Colorado Springs, and when the city didn't plant as many flowers in the medians a couple of years ago, Brandon blamed Bush. "Stupid Bush!" he said as he complained about the lack of flowers.

Out of the mouths of babes, I say. Our kids know that the man is a joke and all you can do at times is laugh at him.

:rofl: :rofl:
