You portray President-Elect Obama as a small boy fist-bumping a relatively gigantic Uncle Sam.

You got that perfectly backwards.  Bush has diminished the nation to the stature of a stunted ogre who couldn’t reach up to Obama’s knees if he stood on a ladder.

And is a white Uncle Sam even appropriate anymore?  He’s about as real as the image of a white Santa Claus invented as an ad campaign for Coca-Cola.  You know, the one that used to have real cocaine in it.

Sheesh.  What an effed up use of symbolism.
