Concerning this cartoon J. Leo of Stoney Creek writes:

Spectator cartoonist Graham MacKay really missed the mark in the January 21 issue when he portrayed people such as John Kerry, Michael Moore and Osama Bin Laden crying while in the background George W. Bush is smiling during his inauguration.

Bush has accomplished everything Bin Laden hoped that he would, and with a swiftness that probably even surprised him.

Bush has polarized America from the world, destabilized the Middle East, fractured Iraq into three separate fundamental states, created thousand of more hardline terrorists -- all under the guise of protecting America.

Bin Laden is somewhere in a cave laughing at the Americans for moving into the exact direction that he wanted them to.
