Obama's fly-by consultation
  • The cartoon title is Obama's Fly-by Consultation. These words were being used to show the recent occurance that happened with the President. He made a decison on his own with consultation from no one.
  • The objects that are presented here are planes with messages attached that said We're off to bomb Libya for a few days consider yourself consulted-President Obama. This was done over are No-fly zone and they flew near this are in Washington to say that they warned the officials. the artist is showing how the people of America took this news because it seemed new to everyone nobody knew of anything.
  • The action that was taking place in this cartoon is The Presidents way of informing us of his plan to Bomb Libya. It was a pretty sneaky way of doing things, maybe so that no one would have had the ability to change his mind.
  • The message is that we were so completly unaware of the decison made by President to bomb Libya.
  • This action relates to current political events because the President  did not inform his citizens of his plans to bomb this country. and millions of dollars were put to use for this attack.
  • The satire that is expressed here is that it was a fly-by which was a very quick sneaky way of showing this message to the people. The irony here is that its true and basically nobody was aware until after the attack. which we could no longer do anything about.
