Post a Comment*I liked the other one, the Don't Stop one, better than this, especially Obama's face and expression. Should have had him singing that, leave everything else as is in this one...
you're about as original as they are
Don't be shy, share your cartoons with us, anonymous.
I like it
Here's a little substance, if you will....
http://www.barackobama.com/pdf/ObamaBlueprintForChange.pdf
is he as effective as mallory?
does he have the same links to cincy govt that bush was privy to in 2000 and 2004?
where is oprah, the guardian financial angel? is she repainting the white house yet?
will cincy's schools ever get any money? can obaby change THAT????

Mr Borgman: You have Hillary looking like Marge Schott. Good Cartoon.
keep in mind that Obama is more liberal than Hillary. I do not resent him as much as I do Hillary.
All I've got is McCain.
Not much diffrence in the three.

Big Clinton lead in Ohio, Quinnipiac poll says
Hillary Clinton enters the final three weeks before the Ohio primary with a lead of 21 percentage points over Barack Obama, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released Thursday morning.
It also shows that whoever presumptive GOP nominee John McCain faces this fall, it could be a very close race in Ohio, which will be a critical state for both party nominees.
Quinnipiac, which polls key presidential campaign states, 564 likely Democratic voters between Feb. 6 and this Tuesday, and the results were good news for a Clinton campaign that could use some: 55 percent of Clinton, 34 percent for Obama, with only nine percent undecided.
The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.1 percent.
The same poll surveyed 1,748 likely Ohio voters and showed a statistical dead heat in head-to-head match-ups with both Obama and Clinton. It showed McCain with 44 percent to 43 percent for Clinton. In a match-up with Obama, McCain took 42 percent to 40 percent for the Illinois senator.
Read the full poll here
This cartoon feels like it's not quite "there" yet, if you know what I mean, but your Hillary Clinton is hysterical. She looks like a pile of marshmallows with a face and a pantsuit.
Here's mine, though it doesn't have nearly as much character. :(
how can this country decide what is false hope and what is "real" hope when they steal whatever hope you have!!
Thank goodness for all the inane "Anonymous" comments that are posted above - so glad we made the tradeoff of "giving many voices their say". Jim, most of them are not even "abusive" or "otherwise inappropriate" - it's just someone getting their kicks by sabotaging your otherwise intelligent blog and boring the readers who have to slog through to get to the good stuff. Here's looking forward to Pluck!
are there "how to be original" art classes?
LOL:
Former President Bush to endorse McCain
why the outcries against "bodies" exhibit, when the us has thrown away 50 million+ bodies from abortions?
are you using bush's definition of blog?

At 7:39 PM, T.Nowicki had the nerve to criticize the execution of Borgman's cartoon and, then, shamelessly promote his own cartoon. I suggest that T. Nowicki promote his cartoons on his own blogspot and avoid sophomoric efforts at one-up-manship.

Griffey arrives early
BY JOHN FAY | JFAY@ENQUIRER.COM
E-mail | Print | digg us! | del.icio.us! | Click-2-Listen
SARASOTA, Fla. – Ken Griffey Jr. was out on the Joe Morgan Field in Sarasota, Fla., on Friday running bases and working up a good sweat.
Position players don’t even report for spring training until Tuesday, but Griffey’s already been here three days.
“I’m always early,” Griffey said. “This is the time I’m usually here.”
Unfortunately for Griffey, he’s usually here early because he’s trying to come back from an injury. That’s the case this year. Griffey missed the last 10 games of the 2007 season with a high left groin strain.
“It was still bothering me in October,” he said. “I was able to do what I do – pick up the kids, go to their games.”
Griffey, 38, hasn’t gotten in the hitting cage yet. He’s been running, lifting weights and trying to get in baseball shape.
Does he feel good?
“You never feel good,” he said. “Something always bothers you. That’s part of spring training.”
But Griffey is moving well.
“He looks good,” general manager Wayne Krivsky said. “He’s in great shape. I got a chance to talk to him a bit today.”
Griffey is in the last year of his contract – the club holds an option for 2009.
He’s coming off a year in which he played in his most games since 2000. He hit .277 with 30 home runs and 93 RBI in 144 games.
I wonder what Oprah's first talk show will be at the White House: How Congress screwed american sports in 6 months
Jerry will offer an encore: Bush and Jerry pardons: clemens, the bengals, and belichik
maybe leno and letterman can hire oprah's and jerry's writers.
american dollar: 3 strikes and you're out: 1-war, 2-nfl/baseball tickets, 3-?
karma: the world screws the us with the euro, while the us screws the world and the us with the $war
maybe obama/congress can sue all the kids who cheat on tests, after specter is done with belichick; wouldn't that be amazing if he could clean up cincy's public schools? wouldn't it be amazing if mallory could?
good thing obama and oprah don't read this blog

At 7:39 PM, T.Nowicki had the nerve to criticize the execution of Borgman's cartoon and, then, shamelessly promote his own cartoon. I suggest that T. Nowicki promote his cartoons on his own blogspot and avoid sophomoric efforts at one-up-manship.
What on Earth are you talking about? For criticism, that was tame–we're talking slow-pitch softball, here. If you look again you'll notice more of my comment was dedicated to complimenting his illustration and caricature than anything else.
As a freelance cartoonist, you should realize that artists value the input of their community–that includes constructive criticism, as well as sharing and comparing one another's work.
My comment at 7:39 was both honest and respectful, and if there's anything I need to apologize for it's for not being more specific with my criticism. My comment was vague and there's not much the artist can come away from it with, if he didn't already have some personal suspicions of his own about the cartoon.
Jim, if it helps, I can add this: The quality of the illustration, as I said, is great, and the observation is a good one. But what you have here is basically no more than one player making a sarcastic comment to the other. It's a bit on the generic side. This seems like the kind of observation that could be better illustrated by some kind of image which focuses the irony of Clinton's latest talking point directly on her instead of doing it through Obama's dialogue (or, perhaps in addition to Obama's dialogue).
maybe oprah can put the nation on a diet
For the record, T.Nowicki offering constructive criticism to Jim Borgman is kind of like a weekend hacker offering putting advice to Tiger Woods.
false war, false casualties, false billions of dollars, false reasons
false money, false value
false america
Campaign 2008
Bill Clinton campaigns for wife
Former President Clinton told hundreds of Hillary Clinton's supporters today that her campaign for the nomination will likely come down to contests next month in Ohio and Texas. (AP, 2:22 p.m.)
Boston Globe
I see Bill Clinton went off in Toledo yesterday on a common citizen who was an Obama supporter.Granted the man had been heckling the formerly impeached president with bulging neck veins but it just illustrates how
thin skinned the supposedly ex-most powerful man in the world is/was/has always been/and will always be.
To say Bill is a bullying punk would be the least one could say.
who needs a president anyway, except for war? the economy couldn't have done worse if left alone
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080218/ap_on_re_af/bush_kosovo
does he recognize the US's independence?
false humility
I think Nowicki was on the mark with his comment. His comment was polite and constructive.
I would hope Mr. Borgman is looking for feedback like that, whether it's from Joe Pro or Everyday Schmoe.
Borgman's an extremely talented illustrator, but he's not infallible.
