Abstract

A cartoon in reference to Democratic Party and Republican Party messaging on the state of the United States. A Democratic donkey inspects Uncle Sam has plenty to say: "Oh my goodness gracious heavens to Betsy! He surely has francus of the fergotisand, pharmagamis of the parmesean! And that ain't all!" The Republican elephant says "Ahem, sounds perfectly okay to me."
