[Random Variable]

A political cartoon from a European newspaper that portrays President Bush in a positive light:

Ah that looks good.... I wish they would have made the first pic a little more dramatic tho

That is pretty neat, so rare that we see the president in a cartoon where he's NOT the brunt of the joke...

Maybe the joke (to them) was how quickly he wanted to do some ass-kicking?

Ever since the war of 1812 the Brits have been on our side. Now, if you find a positive cartoon about our pres in a FRENCH newspaper...

Why would the French not like the US? Hasn't the US generally had a good relationship with France. France brought the Statue of Liberty over, and the US was allies with the French in World War II. I think my history is lacking...

I think Robin Williams put it best in his HBO special Watch that excerpt, it's all the history you need.

Who do the French like? Or, even better, who likes the French?

any political cartoon putting anyone in a positive light is a rare sighting.

I would like to watch but I don't have cable TV. Can I rent it from Blockbuster? What is it called?

I don't think that is all that positive. I mean, they could be ribbing Bush as being reactionary, or one might intrepet the cartoon to be suggesting that Bush is politically capitalizing on the phase 'lets roll'.
