In this cartoon you will find a donkey, an elephant and president Obama climbing a mountain called Healthcare Summit. Obviously the donkey represents the democrats and the elephant wearing the no hat represent in the republicans. The president sees a problem which is that 46 million have no health insurance, the elephant is not helping in fact he is weighing the president down. The donkey a democrat is trying to help the president by pushing the elephant along, but the elephant is not going anywhere willingly. In fact when the president asks what he sees he says the next election and calls him a socialist. The republicans do not approve of what president Obama at all. Some believe that he is a socialist because of policies like this one where the government is providing for the people through taxes.
This artist Fitzsimmons appears to be a liberal artist. He is criticizing the republican for the old fashioned ways and not being willing to help the people. He is saying that the president sees a problem and is trying to solve is where as the republican are just preventing the process from flowing smoothly. The democrats always have to do anything that require them to see the big picture.
