Conrad on George Bush

Conrad’s cartoon, unfortunately, is all too true.

For several years lawyers, legislators, public defenders, ex-members of the CIA and FBI are among the many who have tried to convey the truth of Bush’s involvement in the Iran-Contra affair, illegal sales of arms and drugs and covert dealings with Panama strongman Gen. Manuel Noriega and his government, but the public in general has failed to listen.

Although Conrad’s cartoon will no doubt draw ire from those who refuse to face the truth or learn the facts, he has made a statement with his cartoonist’s pen which is more powerful than all the written and spoken words of many others.
