Today's Doonesbury features President Obama in the White House. Garry Trudeau hasn't used the Clinton waffle or the Bush Roman helmet, just the White House with words from the President and an aide.
I thought the strip was rather lame with "Cheney is a war criminal", but maybe Trudeau meant it as a joke on himself.
I look forward to President Obama's first "personal" appearance in Doonesbury. Might it be as an FM mike?

Have you seen President Obama in "Doonesbury"?
Garry Trudeau pictured President George W. Bush as a Roman general's helmet floating over an asterisk. To many on the right this proved that Trudeau was a liberal and should be on the editorial page.
What they forget is that Trudeau is an equal opportunity satirist and lampooner. He pictured President Bill Clinton as a floating waffle with a pat of butter dripping off of it.
When and how will he portray President Barack Obama? A floating Constitution, a wad of money, some symbol behind a podium? A suit, tie, and flag pin? Whatever he chooses, I hope we get a good chuckle and feel, "Right on!"
