What Newsweek writers read

Readers of the Enquirer learned from reporter Howard Wilkinson last week how Rep. Steve Chabot greeted President Bush during his visit last week: he handed him a copy of Jim Borgman's cartoon from that day's Enquirer.

Now, Newsweek readers know it too. In a story about the controversy over a Dubai company's role in running some U.S. ports, Newseek used this tidbit (both in hard copy and online.)

Still, the storm spread. Midweek, as he stepped off the plane in Ohio on a trip to boost candidates in tight congressional races, the president was greeted by Rep. Steve Chabot. The congressman pressed into Bush's hand a cartoon from that morning's Cincinnati Enquirer. It showed a grinning Arab emir spreading his arms over an American port. The caption read, "Relax, Homeland Security has everything under control."

Read it here.

Here's the cartoon

Is the poster "Carl" Carl Weiser? Why not include your last name in your posts like every other Enquirer staffer who posts here?

Borgman is the only at the enquirer that has any credibility left.

This ridiculous port idea is just one more example of everything that's wrong with the politicians in Washington...

There is no vision... there are no ideas... There is no plan...

If we keep doing what we're doing, we'll keep getting what we've got...

If I win this election... It will have been won one person at a time. That's how I've done everything in my life... Why would I ever change now? One person at a time. If I win, this will have been a door-to-door victory for the 630,000 people who live in this Congressional District.

Thank you for allowing me to vist so many of your homes. Because of you, this has been the experience of a lifetime!

One person at a time... When you live 100 miles away from most of the people who vote in the District... When you are a Democrat in the most conservative Congressional District in Ohio... When you are challenging an incumbent politician in a District that hasn't been won by a Democrat in the last 32 years... You have to work harder than anybody else. And that is exactly what I have been doing. ONE PERSON AT A TIME AND THEN, TOGETHER, WE WILL MAKE OUR COUNTRY WHOLE AGAIN...

Thank you.

Jim Parker
