    The first ones had the correct dates as well, people just couldnā€™t read the five as a five and thought it was a nine. Love the last panel. And I agree with the poster who said a Blackberry should be Obamaā€™s ā€œiconā€ It is ideal!

    As the new CEO of two American car companies, maybe Obamaā€™s icon should be a tire iron with 2 fuzzy dice.

    i, too, like the blackberry idea. Iā€™m just not sure how simple it would be to draw one in the tiny space above the white house.

    I say go with the Blackberry. Or maybe a basketball. He wonā€™t be CEO of two American car companies for long, because they wonā€™t be car companies much longer, either.

    When will the president remember the adage ā€œBe careful what you wish for, you may get itā€ and that it applies to everyone?

    yyy, he doesnā€™t need to draw the Blackberry over the White House, just by a podium when heā€™s having Obama speak to the press. Remember Bush Iā€™s ā€œpoints of lightā€ and Bush IIā€™s battered Roman helmet, too. Not to mention the Quayle feather.

    well,iā€™m a canadian guy,but after 8 years of the horror the horror,iā€™m greatly optomistic.dudnā€™t mean we donā€™t need gb to keep potus on his toes.the choice of icon is a matter for long and careful consideration,i think. with best wishes all around.

    My last panel says ā€œBut what if Iā€m messed and tire up.ā€ Do you suppose that should be ā€œtired and mess upā€? Strange thing to see in a widely distributed comic, or am I missing something? Is everyone else getting it correctly? Clue me in here, people.

    How do we know that Trudeau isnā€™t programming Obamaā€™s Teleprompter?

    Ushindi, please refer to my previous post about the big O now running 2 car companies. The ā€œtire upā€ comment will make more sense.

    Rahmā€™s right in panel 4; abbreviated, but full length should be ā€œsatire is a cold takeā€ in movie parlance. Like live TV (the old Steve Allen Tonight show; or anybody remember Soupy Sales? Ernie Kovacs?)

    I like the BlackBerry icon; any other candidates?

    the best idea iā€™ve heard isā€¦pennies.

    now thatā€™s some change we can believe in. not to mention a nice tie in to lincoln.

    oh and for our right-wingers out there, itā€™s not like pennies are worth all that much.

    i thought the ā€œmessed and tire upā€ was just a spoonerism for ā€œtired and mess upā€ to show that BHO had no chance to correct any errors he made. maybe iā€™m too literal minded.
