[edit] National Headline

I remember reading a national newspaper about 2.5 years ago that the criticism of Bush on SNL had taken on a much more harsh nature than with previous presidents. I think it was New York Times, but it might have been Rolling Stone. I don't know if anyone could help me out, but this seems like an important addition. -Patstuart(talk)(contribs) 00:00, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

I'll see what I can find. --Iriseyes 00:34, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Doonesbury

In the political comic Doonesbury President George W. Bush was symbolized by a Stetson hat atop a giant asterisk (a la Roger Maris), because he was Governor of Texas prior to his presidency (Trudeau accused him of being "all hat and no cattle.") and also due to the controversy surrounding the 2000 presidential elections.

Can someone explain what this has to do with the elections? - Che Nuevara 19:00, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

No clue, I took this text directly from the Doonesbury article. --Iriseyes 03:26, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Comics

There are more comics on George W Bush for e.g. DubyaMan http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/1430438.cms It been running for a very long time and should be added. if there is a reason why it shouldnt be added please post here.

[edit] Etc.

There's also Steve Bridges, Robert Smigel on Late Night with Conan O'Brien and others I'm sure. But isn't "fictionalized portrayal" redundant? Шизомби 13:18, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Hm, I guess it is a bit redundant, but "Portrayls of GWB" just doesn't sound right to me. --Iriseyes 04:36, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
