Watching this animation that Matt did for openthegovernment.org, you'll go from amusement to a bit of a shock.
Matt Wuerker has done cartoons and illustrations for about every progressive magazine and website out there: Z Magazine, Tom Paine and The Center For American Progress. I read him regularly in The Funny Times.
In late March he did an animation for openthegovernment.org, an organization that is an advocate of transparent government and sunshine laws (I can find no reference for it here on kos, so apologies if it's been diaried before). The premise of the animation is clever, tying all the "best of Bush" classifed moments into one mantra, "It's a secret." It starts off innocuous enough, but it ends with a bang, showing iconic images of the harm that has been done from an administration that has been anything but straight with us: rendition, Guantanamo, American deaths in Iraq, and Abu Ghraib.
What starts off as funny ends with a sobering reminder that the most powerful man on the planet needs an audit to come down from his boss, and it's not God;
It's us.
