As seen through the mind’s eye of my seventh-grade son/artist, above is a composite sketch of OBAMASOROS, an unusual political creature that surfaced during the 2008 presidential race, possibly the product of human-hybrid embryo experiments being conducted in the U.K., but I digress.
OBAMASOROS sports the political ambition of presidential candidate Barack Obama while enjoying the financial wherewithal of billionaire hedge fund trader George Soros. His genetic makeup represents a volatile combination that stands poised to backfire on American voters should they cast the wrong vote in November.

I just stumbled over your web. Thanks for your web site I have it in my favorites. Thank GOD there are more people like you because I for one do not want to live like they did in the USSR. Remember them having to stand in line for shoes, bread, etc. I’m just a blue collar worker just like Joe the plumber and the way it seems, Hussein is going to stuff the ballot boxes, and put us under a socialist society. His play book comes straight from Mein Kampf, Hitlers playbook and his idealism comes straight fro Marx/Lennon.

Kenb: Yes! We need more free-market capitalism, because the greedy aren’t done screwing our economy into the ground yet.

Unaware that the “word” OBAMASOROS had prior existence, I recently used it in a comment on a political website. At the time, it actually occurred to me that someone ought to sketch and publish it. I often get inspirational ideas about cartoons (both political and non-political), but lack the graphic-arts skills needed in order to produce them on my own. Accordingly, I would love to collaborate with someone who can DRAW.
My own concept of what ObamoSoros might look like is quite different from the one shown on this page. “MY” ObamaSoros would look a lot more like Soros from the waist down, but with a pair of extremely menacing and obviously reptilian (rear) feet with long, sharp claws, and lots of scales. As for the beast’s head, well that would have adequate Obamanian features to make it universally recognizable (for example, the hair style, the big ears and the very characteristic eyebrows, but in addition it would be embellished with everything needed to establish it as Hellishly DEMONIC. There might also be scales on the neck and forehead. In my mind’s eye, I can already see this creature on the screen of a high-end animated computer game. Can we start up a contest to see who can draw the “be(a)st” ObamaSoros? One parting idea: how about putting a very small, but legible, “666″ on the skin between two of its (rear-foot) toes? Also, the forelegs and front feet need to be a lot more developed, even to the extent that shown alone without any other parts of the beast, they would evoke terror.
