Ball point pen on today's newsprint

I'll drink if I wanna,
And play a little poker too
Don't you say nothing to me,
As long as I'm taking care of you
As long as I'm working baby,
And payin' all the bills
I don't want no mouth from you,
About the way I'm supposed to live
You must be crazy, woman,
You just gotta be out of your mind
As long as I'm footin' the bills,
I'm paying the cost to be the boss

Human rights, Iran, China's Currency,... Mums the word until we get our financial house in order.

I have to catch a train this morning for a photo shoot in NY, so today's sketch is another quickie.

Yesterday Mahmoud Ahmadinejad stoked anti Israeli sentiments and flexed his muscles by firing 9 test missiles, including one capable of striking Israel and US allies in the region... Iran may be testing missiles, but  they're also testing the will of American's to follow an unpopular president should the US decide to do anything about it.
