this cartoonis stateing that george bush is a socialist radical because the problem is that the banks are closing and i supporting barak obama i think that the republicans caused this because the banks were not fundedby the government to help them when they started to go into massive debt it was the republicans who turned the bill down to help them then when it came time to acctually have to vote on it the government republicans were voteing no again so the whole problem could have been evoided if they halped the insurance and big banks get out of debt if they just said that the bank could not give loans to people that couldnt afford it when the rates went up then the darn republicansvoted no. so if the republicans didnt vote no then the political cartoon could have been evoided if the president pased the bill to go ahead and help the big banks go out and pay there debt and then pay the government and depending on there income in places like AIG thenthey could have earned money and give a certian amount to the government to pay them back and then if the problem comes back i think that maybe we should let them sink so that we dont have a tax increase and then we dont have to waist time and money finding a way to keep a ank that if this happenes twice to it that will not stay in buiseness then it would be there fault and for those people that use the bank in that company name then the money we would have prvided to the bank that failed yet again to them and try to help tham as best we can and than if they can afford it then let there tax go up so the country gets its money back and then all failling banks that fail twice need to go out and if it is the first time then the bank needs to get a loan this is why the cartoon is important the republicans that think that a tax increase for a bank that supplies tax is is fair then we should not be paying for there failure so the president george bush that passed this bill then turned it down in congress that is why your face looks funny in the cartoon

if the guy in the cartoon wants to call the president a socialist radical then i think that that is totally appropriate because if they decide to call him that then i think that he deserves it because after all this bail out with the banks is his partys falt the republicans voted no it may just be because i support the democrats but thats just me

This cartoon isn't funny, I thought Bush was a VERY good president and it's ridiculous that he is still made fun of even though a new president will be picked next month. Yes they are referring to Bush as a "social radical" because of the newspaper saying "bank bailout".

there is no way people can call a republican a socialist radical the socialist point of view is that no matter how hard you work we all get the same pay and food eveything everyone is equal.if people called George bush a republican a socialist radical they must not under stand the socialist view the republicans say that you work hard you get paid if you dont you dont get money so if the poor people who dont have jobs then they dont get money so there are to opissite views here so nobody can really call our republican president a socialist radical.

if the people want to call george bush a socialist radical then i think that they shold atleast under stand what the is because the socialist party is not really anyhting like the republicans because if the socialists were like the republicans then they would have known that the socialists never thought that more hours of work ment that you would be payed fo the extra work and that there are no poor people in socialst countrys that everyone is getting the same amount of money for less hours and even if they dont even work so there is no way that people could call george bush a socialist and a radical one at that so no way

ryan martin is right, socialist radicals are commies, and John Carrie would have done WORSE and if carrie was president then people wouldn't even think about voting Obama.

Wow, that was REALLY funny! Just goes to show how unknowing the American people can be at times...We know that President Bush has not been doing the greatest job as our current president. So, he is enraging the common people. But, I don't think that we can always blame George Bush for every little problem of ours and that it's irresponsible to do so. Sure, it's way easier to blame someone else gut I have found that taking the easy route has never benefited this country.
