[] Kevin Tuma, a well known political cartoonist, in his cartoon "McCongress" claims that the Obama stimulus plan will not help anyone by displaying how the U.S. is already too full of robbery and neglect. Tuma illustrates America as an overweight clown that couldn't possibly afford to consume another stimulus "burger". His purpose is not only to explain how big America's problems are, but to pronounce the fact that Obama hasn't helped our country with the stimulus plans in order to convince America to go against Obama. Tuma's audience is anyone who thinks Obama is a good president. I completely agree with this cartoon. Obama has not helped our country in any way with his stimulus plans and never will. = = =**REHUGO Entry #2**= Fitch, David "Too Pig To Fail."

David Fitch, in his cartoon "Too Pig To Fail" claims that congress is sucking up to the fincancial industry by displaying how they don't even care about paying attention to reforms. He creates this idea by representing financial aid as a giant pig and congressmen acting like its piglets, who are ignoring a briefcase that says "reforms" on it. Fitch's purpose is to expose congressmen for being ignorant towards what is really important in America in order to convince his audience that congress is doing nothing to help the citizens of the U.S. His intended audience is anyone who is affected by financial plummeting.

John Cole, in his cartoon "The Texas Miracle" asserts that Rick Perry is only supported by the uninsured, the minimum wage workers, and those who recieved education cuts by claiming that Perry is a fake. Cole displays this idea with these people holding Perry up to make him appear as if he is walking on water. His purpose is to expose Perry for the fake he truly is in order to convince republicans not to vote for him. Cole's intended audience anyone who wants Perry to be the next president of the United States. I slightly disagree. Rick Perry isn't a fake, but a lot of people are biased against him.

 * Personal Commentary:** Personally, I've never liked Rick Perry as Texas Governor so I'm not shocked that the public opinion about him isn't all that great and I think he will continue to make these mistakes just like today he made two mistakes in one sentence, stating that the voting age is 21 and stating the wrong date of the general election

** CITATION **:  Janssen, Tom."The Netherlands." Cartoon. 07 December 2011. //World//. 07 Dec. 2011. Political Cartoons. 10 Dec. 2011 .< []>.

** PRECIS **: Tom Janssen, a cartoonist, in his cartoon, "The Netherlands" implies that Vladimir Putin, a formal Russian president re-running for the candidate of the 2012 presidency, mirrors a tough guy image, what the media pictures him as, but is actually nothing but a weak man. He illustrates this by drawing a wimpy man labeled Putin and a mirror in front of him showing a very muscular reflection of himself, the reflection with muscles and toughness is what the media knows him by. Janssen's purpose is to portray the fake and the real Putin and how he acts as though he is a tough man in order to win his country's popularity. His intended audience is anyone who believes that Vladimir Putin is a respectable man. I really dont know much about this topic. =REHUGO Entry #9= Hajjaj, Osama. "The World As We Know." //PoliticalCartoons.com //. N.p., 13 Dec. 2011. Web. 13 Dec. 2011. <[]>. Osama Hajjaj, a well known political cartoonist, in "The World as We Know" argues that worldly society forgets about its own society by claiming that the only thing that some people know about other countries is stereotypically a few key items. Hajjaj ironically resembles every country by something that is most commonly known in the area. His purpose is to demonstrate the lack of knowledge that a lot of people have about our own world and how we need to remind ourselves about the idea of nationalism. His audience are the people who have a lack of knowledge about the rest of the world. Being in an ignorant history class, this is really proven to be true. a lot of people dont know about the rest of the world.
