Now I’m actually quite glad that we’re not subjected to that kind of propaganda today. But the cartoon does drive home the basic points that war costs money and things that cost money require taxes. Taxes were a hard sell then and they’re a hard sell now. But the way the sale was made in ‘43 was to convince people that the war was worth the cost. These days, politicians seem to feel that the public would refuse to pay for the war if asked plainly. So instead of asking, they try to obscure the cost. It’s not really a tenable situation.

Have to agree with Tennessean. It’s a crying shame that Bush felt the need to hide the costs of his wars and actually lower taxes for the rich during a time of war. How much more refreshing it would have been if The Ninja Turtles or Kermit The Frog could have given us the plain truth. Sucks.
I hope you have better luck finding a cure for your current ailments than you have had finding a cure for your “Bush Derangement Syndrome”! ;-) Or is it incurable??
Why wasn’t Donald smoking in that one?
Kinda sucks that in today’s P.C. driven world, something like this would be considered unacceptable.
