The message that the cartoon is trying to tell is Obama a democrat has to clean up a mess made by the republican’s symbolised by the elephant. Looking at Obama you can see that he doesn’t know what he has walked into. The elephant and skull show how the republican’s got involved in a war that killed thousands of people just so they could drill for more oil and make lots of money. At the top of the tent you can see the United States flag ripped and torn. Added with the elephant walking away you can see that while the republicans were getting more oil and money American was falling apart. Yes, I do agree with the cartoon because when George Bush was president I had a feeling that Bush did not care about the country only money, war and oil. When Obama became President of the U.S.A. it became perfectly clear to me when everything that Bush did was stopped and thousands of people lost their jobs and homes. I found the cartoon very effective. When I saw it I got a feeling that this was one of the factors that caused the recession that has been going on. I would change the size of the broom by making it bigger. Also, if this cartoon was made recently, I would exchange the broom for a bill worth over seven hundred billion dollars. I would add more skulls and some dead bodies to show how they killed innocent people. To show pollution, I would have smog in the background and pools of water with oil floating in it.

Well Done Brad, I like how it has Uncle Sam giving Obama the broom to fix the mess, and I like how it compares running the US to running a circus. Again, well done - The Boss Brad, this cartoon has a great deal of imagery in it. You have caught the symbolism well. Do you know why they have pictured an elephant? If they followed through on this line of symbolism do you know what form Obama would come in? CF

Interesting cartoon Brad, you did an amazing job of describing and analyzing the cartoon. I doubt that I would have understood the cartoon that well without your explanation. Mike.

Excellent Job with this Cartoon!! I love how you went into detail to explain this cartoon, looking forward to the next cartoon. :D Miss Bengtsson

Great job! It was easy to understand in the detail you put in your explanation. I also think it's funny. I love the tie that says 'drill baby drill'. Michelle

I love the elephant holding the machine gun and I love the fact that Obama is near by.... -TheeUnknown Great Job brad! You explained everything that you mentioned very well, and I really appreciated how you put what you would add. BIG hand Shake! wait.... -Dan? Topic for my social project is on how globalization has caused homogenization in cultures.

To what extent has globalization caused homogenization in cultures? 1.How has the Canadian culture been homogenized? 2.How are the cultures adjusting to homogenization? 3.What parts of the culture are being affected by homogenization?

These are good questions! I have to admit that this sounds like an interesting topic. mike. []

My main topic is how has globalization effected and changed our identity’s.
