Gas Guzzling George

Gas Guzzling George ~Audreanna Wignall

Though it has been quite some time since George W. Bush was in office, it’s going to be a long time before anyone at all forgets the high gas prices that struck across America.  In this political cartoon, Audreanna states that “I drew it because my art teacher said we had to draw a self-inspired political cartoon.  We had to pick a political subject and draw about it.  At the time, gas prices were insane and Bush was still in office.”

If you or anyone you knew owned a car around that time, no doubt you heard about the gas prices continuously rising.  The message behind the cartoon goes farther than gas prices being at insane highs.

“In the cartoon, Bush is the gas guzzler while the pump is everyone else and their money.”
