The political campaigns begin to hot up in the US. All Democrat candidates are unified in at least one thing (despite their previous weasely support for the invasion); that the war in Iraq has now become untenable and that troops should be withdrawn. The anti-war sentiment has become their motherhood-and-apple-pie-issue. Bush's bottom-scraping popularity had made him an easy target. This is a pastiche of a Gillray print (The Political Banditti Assailing The Saviour of India), drawn for an exhibition at the Political Cartoon Gallery.
