Blagojevich Editorial Cartoons
by Cal Skinner
Maybe now that Judge James Zagel has ruled that former Governor Rod Blagojevich may not go to Costa Rica to participate in an NBC-TV reality show, maybe the desert island ridicule of him will shift to other aspects of the farce we are watching.
But, before the ruling Chicago Sun-Times editorial cartoonist Jack Higgins came up with a “What might have been.”
He has Zagel giving Blagojevich a choice of sitting in a room with U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald “with only the aid of a court-appointed attorney” or “spending a week on a desert island with two hungry cannibals.”
“Heh-heh. That's an easy one!” the coiffured one replies.
The bottom part of the three-paneled cartoon shows the sun setting over the ocean with a one palm three island being circled by sharks.
Two men are fighting over a long bone.
LEGGO
MY
BLAGO!”
one says to the other.
Have you seen these other cartoon depictions:
- dancing behind bars
- on the island
- on the bus
- the chicken
- under the Burris cloud
- half of a two-headed chicken
- with a barrel of money
- the clown
- bandaged
