Today's jpost.com cartoon

As electoral disaster looms for the Democrats, the increasingly--and belatedly--uneasy Barack Obama is about to learn the same painful lesson as King Canute: just because you're in power doesn't mean everything falls under your control.
UPDATE: Chronologically now the seventh cartoon reblogged by Daniel Dagan, over a year after seeing the light of day, in a wave-cartoons-themed post.
UPDATE 2: I guess Mr. Dagan liked it so much he used it twice--this time in a wave-cartoons-themed post.

Drawn using:
No. 2 pencil (sketch)
