Sketchbook Chronicles: George Bush Cries Every Day

Filed under: George Bush Art, Sketchbook Chronicles

I’ve been really bored with this week’s celebrity gossip news, but the report of President Bush admitting to shedding tears of “self-pity” and witnessing ghosts emerging from the Lincoln Bedroom happened to catch my eye. Bush claims,”I’ve got God’s shoulder to cry on…And I cry a lot”. After reading this article, the first image that came to my mind was of George Bush tearfully clutching a giant teddy bear/deity with a look of indifference on its face. I quickly recorded the image in my sketchbook. Another image came to mind too, but I’m on the fence about whether or not to post it. Some folks get awfully touchy when you mess with the President…which is why I’m so tempted to post it. Medium: scan from sketchbook, digital color, text.

    “Lil’ Bush crys; “Hey Pop,.. I Wanna Be A Decider! But the real truth is he’ll never really be. Either way, folk suffer.

  3. Victoria

    I second that opinion.
    Oh please do post it!

  4. Morrigan

    Ya gotta post it :)
    All in all, this picture isn’t that harsh to the prez. It strangely makes me feel a little sorry for the bozo. Nahhh… ;)

  5. Golly, that’s just how I picture God.

    And please post the other image as well! You can’t tell us about it and then deny us!

  6. Oh, god, I love how he’s this tearful little mouse-man. I hope you post the other - I think the president is a total schmuck.

  7. As Atrios says, of all the people in the world aWol can take comfort with. The ‘only’ one who understands him…is GOD. Chimpy thinks he is a god. Us mere mortals are too stoopid to understand Dear Leaders plan to drop nukes on Iran.

    Great job! Bush is such a turd.

  9. ihaveadog

    Dear God: Please let 14 post the other image! Viva la First Amendment!

    The “president” may cry, but not as much as us poor suckers who have him as our “leader”.

  11. Darlene

    Oh, please, please, please, please, please, please, please!!!!!

  12. ChaosbyDesign

    I thought you already posted it…isn’t that Bush back at Yale on the cover of Crack Addict Crunchies?

  13. Alexandra

    Holy crap 14 post it!

  14. Do it! Come on….it’s only GWB!

  15. Siduri

    If he cries all the time, then WHY MUST HE HAVE THAT STUPID SMIRK ON HIS FACE ALL THE TIME???

  16. tiffani

    oh please please post it

  17. that_girl

    Post it sista!

  18. 14, How dare you mess with our President? He’s just trying to spred freedom and the baby jesus and apparently his tears across our great nation. :) Your sketch book is way more interesting than the pages of US Weekly, People, and all that other tabloid stuff combined. I’d like to see your sketchbook nestled along side those other publications when I’m in line at the grocery store. I’d certainly buy one. Thanks for sharing your sketch book with us. And target that stupid mother fucker as often as you see fit. I’m getting a great big 14 tattooed over my heart.

  19. Post it puh-leeeeeaeze 14!!! Does it have him and Karl and Mark Foley and some of the other Repube boymeat lovers at a jammie party? I hooooooope so! With teddy bears, in black leather vests and assless chaps? That is a true Republican Party!

    Don’t worry, you are already on their shitlist for messing with the celebrity porn mind-control machine.

  20. oh … love the pic btw … you are a very special talent.

  21. Post it!!!

  22. Pretty please with cherry on top!

    Siduri, you hit the nail on the head. That fucking smirk just clinches it. Always has. It’s the smirk of the junior high dickhead who always counted on his dickhead pals and/or older brothers to do the dirty work of stuffing hapless nerds into trashcans and flipping up girls’ skirts in the hallways on his behalf. Which, come to think of it, sums up how the fuckhead has run the good ol’ U S of A for the last 7 frickin’ years.

    Don’t give us aesthetic blue balls with a teasing offer of bonus Bush art, dude. Let ‘er rip. And if a conservative gets his/her knickers in a Gordian knot over it, just politely point out that most of the celebs you skewer are liberals.

  24. sugarbear

    You can have my first born if you post it. :)

  25. just wonderin

    Gee 14,
    I thought you might have portrayed Bush as a crocodile, because they are the only type of tears I believe he “does”.
    I think he wrote a country song about it:
    “everyday I do tears
    in my “non-alcoholic beers
    not for the war or
    what I’ve done to the country do I cry you see
    I just cry for lil ole me
    cause that’s all I care about really”

  26. DK

    Oh! you have to post the other one, no teasing us!!!

  27. Oh how cute.. is that Bushy bear ?

  28. postit

    You gotta post it!

  29. 14

    Ha! Okay, I’ll post it. It’s quite tame, but it’s likely to piss the Red States (and the Duggar Family) off. Let me obsess over a few more minute details on the piece and I’ll post.

    Thanks!
    Love,
    14

  30. OH please please post it, 14!!!! Don’t you know that Washington DC is Hollyweird for people too ugly to make it in the real thing? I need some sufferin’ President to make my day complete. The only thing that could be better is if some disaster suddenly removed all the celebutards from the gene pool.

  31. That’s a very nice piece of work.

    Has anyone suggested that Dubya get his mental health checked out? Hard years of drinking and coking can really mess with your mind.

  32. Please post it….while we’ve still got the right to free speack..besides, what can a cyber-bully realy do?

    BTW, I love love love your work.

  33. miriam

    POST IT!!!! DO IT!!!!

  34. jillybean

    Do it! do-it do-it do-it!

  35. Sandy

    Glad to hear you’re going to post it,14. If anyone wants a good read on Bush try “Bush On The Couch”. He is truly one messed up man (mentally & emotionally) and it’s frightening to think he’s the one with his finger on the nuclear button. God help us all.

  36. Demon Kitty

    I still can’t believe gay people voted this bitch into office. But then look at Larry Craig and other RePUBICan assholes.

    Post it!!!!

  37. zenflower

    Hurray 14 - glad you’re posting it!

    Listen, this doesn’t have to degenerate into an acrimonious political debate. People should be able to appreciate great satirical art, regardless of their political stripe.

  38. rlr260

    “he’s the one with his finger on the nuclear button.” Don’t you mean the nuc-u-lar button? Oh the man makes me want to scream everytime he opens his mouth!

  39. EH

    Post it, post it POSTITPOSTIT!!!!! PLEASE!

  40. beth

    I live in Alabama, where there are still tons of people with those f*cking “W: STILL the President” stickers on their cars (usually enormous SUVs). This is the kind of stuff that gives me courage to go on. Thanks for the post.

    what could a can of photoshop do four bush i wander to meself aloud?

    i do love the expression on the face of his very own condiLIEzza-you-like-my-negro-sista teddybear he takes to bed with every night. condi just looks like she wants to say something like what the eff are you squeezing on a sista fo? or like oh no you did-ent push up on a sista wit yo punkish nonsense. or like chile pleez, you betta get up offa sista cuz you off da chain. yeah that’s what the condibear is saying to me. i should’ve checked with my teenage wannabe adult children to make sure “off the chain” is still the proper and up to date expression before i threw it out there. Please no one use this until i am able to verify whether or not it still is up to date. apparently “out of gas” is more appropriate. demonkitty you are out of gas. i didn’t mean that in a negative way i just wanted to see how it felt to use it correctly.

    ahm are those the same boots we see brit spears in?

  42. Paige

    I LOVE the expression on the bear’s face!!! Brilliant.

  43. Cal

    That bear is HILARIOUS. I want one lol
