Clogged Arteries.

This unlikely subject combination came about due to proximity in time. The two topics really had nothing to do with each other. Congress had recently passed President Obama's monstosity of a health care bill, (a couple thousand pages)without even reading it; then there was an explosion of a British Petroleum platform which killed nine workers, and caused a gigantic leak from an oil pipe which was located 5,000 feet deep in the ocean. The "leak" was discharging thousands of gallons of oil per day into the ocean, while scientists tried to figure out a way to stop the flow. Combine those two incidents with a rainy monday and a cancelled golf game, and this Kartune is the result.
