Watch Out For That First`Step

When I created this cartoon it was meant solely to be funny, a bit on the dark side, admittedly, but nevertheless the intention was humor. It was only after it was done that I began to see the political and social ramifications. These characters can stand for just about anything we want them to. I see George Bush in the doorway about to jump, with Congress lined up behind him. But the jumper could as easily be the Democratic Congress, and the others all those who voted it into office. Or perhaps it tells us something about pollsters and the public. Feel free to read into it anything you want.
