Political Cartoon humor, Obama and Bush transition.

I was thinking about the transition from the old administration and the new one. It seems to be moving along fairly smooth so far other than the concerns that most likely always prevail during transitions. Fear of the unknown I guess would be the best way I can think of to put it. No one can really ever tell what the future will bring. One thing that is apparent to me is that while I do not agree with some of the things that have come out of President elect Obamas mouth; I do have to give him credit in the speed and efficiency in which he is handling the transition and team selections. It looks like he will hit the ground running in February. I did this cartoon wondering about a verbal exchange between the current President Bush, and the soon to be President Obama. What would it be like on the day of change that is quickly approaching? What would they say to each other if they knew no one was listening? I'm sure the conversation would be respectful. This cartoon is a humorous representation of what I thought the conversation would be like. Enjoy, and have a great day.

Ditto on all my prior comments about your work. Perhaps you can put them together into cartoon strip? Maybe three or four clips?
