"Darn it! Why won't this thing GROW?" "Maybe you need to change the fertiliser..." 15 January, 2008

- Description
President George W. Bush is frustrated when he pours a bagful of compost called 'Anti-Iran rhetoric' over a pot of soil labelled 'Middle East' in which a packet of 'seeds of peace' is sown. An Uncle Sam character dressed in stars and stripes suggests that maybe he needs a change of fertiliser. Refers to the attempt by George Bush to implement the long-stalled "road map" peace plan in the Middle East. There is irony in the idea of George Bush being a peace maker when one considers his attitudes to Iraq and Iran.
