Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for December 05, 1990

Transcript:

Asterisk: First, let me say I didn't start out to lip-synch. I just wanted to be elected President! The tax pledge came up in the heat of the campaign. I needed a conviction, there wasn't time to develop one of my own, so I gave voice to someone else's. But, hey, that's all in the past, okay? From now on, the only person you'll be hearing from is George Bush! I will never ever again lip-synch to the American people! Reporter: Sir, are you doing it now? Asterisk/Bush: There'll be a short transitional perdiod, yes.
