Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for October 23, 2009

There was also Egas Moniz, who won the Nobel Prize in Medicine for developing the frontal lobotomy.

I would rather have a bottle in front of me…

Even in death, the Ramones are with us! Lobotomy! Lobotomy!

Arafat, anyone?

How about Rigoberta Menchu?

Or Frank Kellogg, coauthor of the Kellogg-Briand Pact that outlawed war, two years before signatory Japan invaded Manchuria?

Or Aristide Briand, who earlier won his for arranging the Locarno Treaty between the Alllied and future Axis powers?

Parasites - maybe not, but nanobacteria are always present surrounding any cancerous tumor.

I wonder if any prizes were handed out for eugenics?

I’m still wondering when Trudeau is going to show us the “symbol” that is Obama. He did it with Presidents past. What’s he waiting for? Afraid he’s going to be called Racist with whatever he comes up with?

Come on G.B., show us what you really think!

Eugene Nicks? What prize did he win?

Earn a symbol? Like he earned the peace prize? LOL!

Maybe that should be his symbol!!!!!

A group of little medals, drawn like they’re all surrounding the same neck.

The more Obama gets unpopular, the more medals he gets…like the way Bush’s war helmet kept getting banged up throughout the years.

Trudeau is still one of the best.

Since the Nobel Peace Prize can only be bestowed on a living person, perhaps he was given it early because there is such a heightened possibility that he will be assassinated.

Lorax,

That is a fantastic Idea!!! That is by far the best symbol for Obuma that I have heard suggested! And OH so appropriate!

After all the ridiculous awards that Bush handed out to his cronies, Obama winning the Nobel really doesn’t seem that outlandish.

wndrwrthg, you stole my thunder. That is a good old funny saying, isn’t it?

Lorax, not bad. I’ve been wondering what Gary will use.

Of course, maybe it will be the “White” House itself? This is said in the spirit of comedy, but it would be an excellent icon for President Obama.

GEE1A, as for Senators Collins and Snowe, you have to have a brain to start with if you are going to get a frontal lobotomy.
