I'm getting a bit freaked that a storm is blowing towards my old home town. I've watched the slow but steady rebuilding of New Orleans. Emphasis on slow. I call it a personal rebuilding. Everyone I know is really just doing what they can on their own. It would be a true disaster to have another big setback.
Speaking of disasters, let's see how George W. responds to this one.
Fingers crossed....
Hi everyone,
I'll be away from my drawing board until January 2nd. Time to recharge the creative batteries and spend some sweet quality time with my amazing wife and children.
Next year will be dominated by the presidential campaigns...I can't wait!
Along with my regular daily editorial cartoons, I will be creating 12 more animations in 2008 starting with a new one in mid January after Iowa and New Hampshire.
For now, I'd like to close out 2007 by thanking all of you for visiting my blog. Since it started in the middle of November, over 9 million people have stopped in for a look and to leave some thought-provoking and often hillarious comments. Thank you so much!!!
For the next 10 days I'll be posting some of my favorites from 2007.
Enjoy and Best Wishes to all-----Walt
Fellow cartoonist and good friend, Jimmy Margulies, a favorite of Newsday's editorial pages, recently sent me this copy of one of my cartoons that appeared in the Japanese edition of Newsweek a while ago. It had something to do with Bush telling Condi to piece Iraq back together. It's always fun to see one of my cartoons reprinted in a foreign language.
Enjoy...Walt
Bush holds a press conference to clarify his position on banning gay marriage.
