A Better World Without George Bush

I’m not normally one to make political comment, but I am so happy to see the end of George W Bush’s Presidency that I feel compelled to become indulgent with just one.

It is so sad that over his time, America has become internationally disliked and distrusted by many who were previously friends.

With the inauguration of President Obama, we now have someone who offers integrity, fairness and not the least – intelligence fitting of a world leader. I’ll say no more – these cartoons say it all!
