political cartoon about Bush Cabinet

The Nightmare Continues
pen, brush, ink & watercolor
15”x22”

In a play on Rousseaus' the Dream and the Wizard of Oz, Schmertzler turns the election of 2004 into a nightmare...

"oh, if only the country had seen Bush's lack of a brain and Cheney's lack of a heart sooner!"

"Intelligent Design" was inspired by the newly disguised debate over creationism versus evolution by the radical conservatives, Schmertzler offers his own proof that perhaps there is at least fantasy credibility to their argument to kill scientific thinking in education.

Intelligent Design
pen, brush & ink
9 3/4”x14 1/2”

Bush's true mean personality shined through the phony veneer in his handling of the growing anti-war protests led by a mother who lost her son, especially in his claim to need to take care of his own life."




political cartoon about President Bush

Gold Star Mom
pen, brush & ink
9 3/4”x14 1/2”

Bush's architect, Rove has been Bush's enforcer, protector, and viscous political pitbull, torturing the reputations of anyone that offers critical debate. These guys have no shame, but then again, who expected any from self-avowed compassionate conservatives!
