Bush Teleconferences With Beetle Bailey

Posted
By: E&P Staff Has it come to this -- President Bush talking to cartoon characters?

Mike Peters, in his Sunday editorial cartoon satirizing last week's choreographed teleconference with U.S. troops, shows Bush asking a soldier: "So, how's Army life?" The soldier on the screen is...Beetle Bailey. A presidential aide reacts to the scene by holding his hand over his eyes as he says in a thought balloon: "Oh, no. Another snafu."

Peters' Dayton (Ohio) Daily News cartoons are syndicated by King Features, which also distributes Mort Walker's "Beetle Bailey" comic.
