“Time” for Obama

This week’s word for Illustration Friday is “time.” I did this cartoon of Obama during the primaries. I think it fits the word “time.” It is his time now and hopefully he can take us through this crisis much as FDR did during the Depression of the thirties. Hopefully it won’t take as long.

“OPINION” FOR ILLO FRIDAY.

The word for this week’s Illustration Friday is “Opinion.”

“THE ONLY THING WE HAVE TO FEAR IS FEAR ITSELF.”

I did this graphite “Photo Realistic” drawing a few years ago of President Roosevelt. A great man and President. I haven’t heard his name mentioned so much as during this latest financial crisis.

This is a quote by Roosevelt during one of the most trying times in American history. The Great Depression. I submit it now to give us all something to think about and hopefully take heart. Seems like we will need to remember these words for quite awhile and hope our politicians will get up on their hind legs and do the right thing for the American people.
