NEW YORK Barack Obama has been paraphrasing a line from a recent Tom Toles cartoon.
In the drawing, The Washington Post/Universal Press Syndicate creator showed John McCain standing with Sarah Palin near the White House.
The Republican presidential candidate says: "Watch out, Mr. Bush! With the exception of economic policy and energy policy and social issues and tax policy and foreign policy and Supreme Court appointments and Rove-style politics, we're coming in there to shake things up!"
Obama, in a sarastic reference to McCain's supposed desire for change, initially used a version of the Toles-cartoon dialog without crediting the source. (He apparently had that dialog pointed out to him by a friend who didn't mention the source.)
When the Democratic presidential candidate used the paraphrased line again, he credited Toles.
The cartoon by Toles and a post by Politicker.com cartoonist Rob Tornoe can be seen here.
Just words. Just speeches.
My first thought as well.
Watch out! He hasn’t even started to bring out the Doonesbury references! Obama is truly the clown prince of politics.
“...the clown prince of politics”. Never heard Obama better described.
“He hasn’t even started to bring out the Doonesbury references!”
I’ll bet the farm that he plagiarizes those, too.
Like a song released in January when it plays the following fall everybody says, "Not this again, change the station."
Paint his ears red and he looks a lot like Bozo.
And that job is open.
I think he looks an awful lot like this guy!
