I found a hilarious Obama cartoon on JibJab.com. You may remember them from their hilarious 2004 election toon "This Land". They've been around since then, but haven't been able to match the popularity of that first hit.
Anyway, the new one made me laugh. Enjoy.

Lol, yep, they released that around the beginning of 2009 I think.
I enjoy their yearly 'Reviews'.
JibJab played this song/video for Obama in person.
EDIT: June 19, 2009.

You didn't know? I always check them at the end of the year like Mr. C. Hilarious stuff. I enjoyed the one they did for the 2008 election

Yeah, they're great, Always good for a laugh. I mean, I wish they'd update more frequently (because that would be AWESOME) but it's become a 2-per-year sort of thing.
Eh, ComKai, have you also felt that the past two Years in Review have been a little... Not as great?

Yeah they seemed a bit more rushed. I mean, considering it's free, I won't bitch that much. The Obama one Psudo linked to was excellent. Hilarious too. Maybe they were depressed? Haha.

Who knows, I hope their 2010 one is good. It's fun remembering all the crazy crap from the past years.

Remember this one?
Hide the Decline
Well, apparently parts of that were made with some sort of do-your-own animation service at Jib Jab.
Then it went viral. Then Michael Mann (the bald guy with the beard in the vid) threatened to sue, then somebody claiming to be Jib Jab had the video pulled alleging copyright infringement.
However...notice it's still up there. That's because These Guys took up the argument, and were rich enough to afford lawyers.
They've got another one up there on their site, without the Jib Jab bits, just in case.

I've never really trusted the validity of political "viral" videos. If you've got millions of hits because you pushed a video advocating a view already shared by millions of political partisans, how is that "viral" exactly? It has the validity of a CEO getting all his employees to "friend" him on Facebook.

Wifie got a year long sub to the site. I am now barraged with endless videos of me belly dancing. Why did I show her this site?
