Obama plagiarizes political cartoon?

By Lawrence B. Ebert, Esq.

The Chicago Reader brought out this interesting comparison-->

Obama on Tuesday, Sept. 9:

"John McCain says he?s about change, too ? except for economic policy, health care policy, tax policy, education policy, foreign policy, and Karl Rove-style politics. That?s just calling the same thing something different. You can put lipstick on a pig; it?s still a pig. You can wrap an old fish in a piece of paper called change; it?s still going to stink after eight years.?

Political cartoon by Tom Toles in Washington Post on Sept. 5, with McCain/Palin saying:

"Watch out, Mr. Bush! With the exception of economic policy and energy policy and social issues and tax policy and foreign policy and Supreme Court appointments and Rove-style politics, we're coming in there to shake things up!"
