http://politicalhumor.about.com/od/barackobama/ig/Barack-Obama-Cartoons/Negotiating-Table.htm

1. This political cartoon was drawn by Adam Zyglis.
2. The elephant represents the Republican party. The weapons that are in Obama's arm represent the resistance the Republicans have toward Obama.
3. The cartoonist uses caricature by exaggerating how skinny Obama is and how big his ears are. He also uses satire with the sarcasm of the elephant's comment.
4. The cartoon deals with all of the negotiations that Obama is trying to make with the Republican party.
5. The cartoon's message is that the Republican party does not want to make any negotiations with Obama.
6.  The cartoonist's point of view is a Democratic view because it shows how Obama is getting attacked.
