Illustration Friday- Safe

"Flying Safe", completed 9/2/06, my comment on the following:

“And I was sitting outside the classroom waiting to go in, and I saw an airplane hit the tower -- the TV was obviously on, and I use to fly myself, and I said, ‘There's one terrible pilot.’”
-- George Bush quoting himself on his first reaction to seeing an airliner piloted into the World Trade Center, speaking in Orlando, Florida, Dec. 4, 2001

“Part of having a secure homeland is to have a good airport system, that's safe for people to travel, an airport system that is inspecting bags by inspectors who are qualified to inspect bags.”
-- George Bush, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Feb. 5, 2002

I don't know about you, but I do not feel safe flying anymore, especially internationally. And I love to travel, when I can afford it. Don't even get me started on what that man has done to the economy.....
This image came to me as I thought about the cliche safe falling from a building (and hitting Bugs Bunny or Elmer Fudd or whoever) and it emerged from there. Plus, I had those "puffy wings" to use up! (ghastly!)
