Description: The cartoon shows Prime Minister, John Key, with his arm round President Obama, who holds a sword dripping with blood and bearing the words 'Congress debt deals'. John Key is holding out a camera with which he is taking a photograph while President Obama asks anxiously 'Will this take long?' Obama has a sword stuck right through him and behind him in the distance is a mediaeval army baying for blood. Context - John Key had an hour-long meeting with President Obama during a recent visit to the United States. Key was keen to talk free trade but it was very evident that Obama had much bigger things to worry about as the United States edged closer on Tuesday (26 July) to a devastating default as Republicans and Democrats deadlocked over competing plans to raise the debt ceiling, one week before a deadline to act. President Obama took to the airwaves in an effort to shift the debate. He called the recent weeks of negotiations over raising the debt ceiling a three-ring circus and asked the public to rally behind his effort to avoid a debt crisis, both temporarily and through the next presidential election.
