Bush, Vicente Fox, and Illegal Immigrants - if truth be told

Monday's Neil Lisst cartoon is about the recent Bush trip to meet with Vicente Fox, and what they should have said, instead of what they did say. If the truth be told.

1. nailed it

Thank you Neil.

[Neil Lisst]

3. You're welcome, VIVA!

Don't you wish for one day, they'd have to tell the truth, like Jim Carrey in Liar, Liar?!

2. (((LOL))) The leaders of our hemisphere...stunning wit & intellect;) n/t

4. Even Vicente Fox sounds better than Bush, though.

Have you noticed how the leaders of other countries don't have to torture language like Bush does? They must really think he's the class dunce.

5. For *, English is a foreign language. He speaks Martian;)

And not well. Fox speaks better English than * and is certainly much brighter. Hell, like you say, he and his palls are * welfare: they keep stealing and we keep defusing.

Hey, it's a big country and somebody has to ruin it. * is our man, uncannily like the ruler in "V" who lived underground (a troll)...nah, that films not about America, no way;)

Very nice work...

[Neil Lisst]

8. good call, autorank. * is like the ruler in "V". did you see this?

Well, since you mentioned it, let me whip this out, as Cleavon Little said in Blazing Saddles.

If you didn't see this use of V for Vendetta to address Bush as villain, you must:

12. yeah but at least "DEMOCRACIES DON'T WAR"

Our presidents might have cut English class so much that they can't speak correctly but they "Don't War! Nice work Neil, thanks

[Neil Lisst]

13. right! Democracies don't war. Of course, they have civil wars.

6. Excellent Neil ~ it's funny how few words it takes to tell the truth and

how many it takes to lie!! You put it very succinctly ~ :-)

[Neil Lisst]

7. Thanks, Catrina! I like putting words in their mouths!

Here's one from a month of two ago I really liked, and it is more truth succinctly spoken.

17. *lol* ~ Brilliant ~ and so true! n/t

18. my site got a visit from NSA headquarters the day that one ran

Because our cartoon is online and is rebroadcast in several overseas sites, some with a decided anti-Bush bent, I'm sure it gets some scrutiny from the standard military/intelligence searches.

Plus, the guy who draws these is Canadian, so every script I write goes by email, INTERNATIONALLY, back and forth. The nature of the words I must use to discuss terrorism, bombings, Bush, etc. make them more likely to be reviewed. I therefore assume that there will be some monitoring of content, if only because that's how their systems are set up and there is so much international involvement.

We regularly get visits from federal government entities and military installations. Might be regular visitors, but ya gotta wonder.

9. Good Morning, DU!! Thanks!

For those 9 recommends already. Wow. I love that.

Good message today, I think, and unlike some of my stuff, I think almost all can agree on this message.

10. Nice work.

Very accurate.

[Neil Lisst]

11. Thanks! We don't always go for accuracy, but in this case ...

It's dead-on!

14. So you are a cartoonist

AND an attorney?

Wow you must have all kinds of expertise.

16. I'm a man of many talents

The best trial lawyers are creative and understand the concept of storyboarding.

Neil Lisst ist ein politischer Comic Autor, den ich manchmal recht gut finde. Selten genug, das ein amerikanischer Künstler so kritisch und manchmal auch hart sein kann/darf und “drüben” so viel Popularität geniesst…

15. Excellent

[Neil Lisst]

19. Hey Jade Fox! good to see you again. We took a week off.

Vacations, charity work, posting on message boards.

We're going to cut back to 3-4 a week. I have some other projects I'm messing with in politics, too.

[Neil Lisst]

20. I'm going to kick this up for late nite
