Are you referring to the 11/21/2002 cartoon about big government ? If not , we really need the date . Please re-post your question with a link if possible .
Yes, I tried to post my question with a link and answers.com did not accept. I am trying to analyze the message of this cartoon for my political science class, I have ideas, but would like to hear what others think.
>In the upper left hang corner is an elephant that represents the Republican party saying how they hate big government . Whereas in the larger frame there is the selfsame elephant rationalizing the extensive bureaucracy/buildings surrounding Homeland security (Which is now a cabinet appointment/post ) by using the euphemism of 'humongous' which is acceptable as long as you accept the new terminology .
The satire lies in the irony that one of the tenets of Republican principles is the philosophy of laissez-faire which essentially promotes the idea that less/smaller government is better than a larger or BIG government .
