Monday Notes








It's sure inconvenient when your best idea happens to be the one that will take hours to draw. This image of congressional members up for reelection this year wanting to keep their distance from Bush was my best State of the Union idea, but drawing the entire Congress averting their eyes was a challenge. And why do I always think of these labor-intensive ideas on Mondays, when we shoehorn an hour-long editorial board meeting into the afternoon?

I'm torn about Mallory's closed meetings. Clearly the people have the right to watch our business conducted in public. On the other hand, we've toured that sausage factory for years during chaotic council meetings and it's hard to say I miss it.

Nice composition in this cartoon - especially the way you handled the congress-Wow! Their facial expressions are hilarious.

Nobody cares what Mallory says in the bathroom or regarding to things other than official business.

There's too much back room dealing going on. We pay the bills and deserve to be informed about how and why decisions are made. It's granstanding politicians that we're sick of, not healthy debate.

It's ironic that this is accepted in a country at war for democracy.

We have the same problem in Newport, in regard to the closed door meetings. I just wanted to let everyone know that we feel your pain right across the river in Newport.
