Cartoonist Mike Thompson turns Green in envy of Steve Fosset's accomplishment

Steve Fosset, who just (link: Vodkapundit) performed an incredible feat of flying around the world -- solo -- without stopping to refuel, can't even have a few minutes of fame without some pissant like Cartoonist Mike Thompson pissing on his incredible accomplishment.

Mike Thompson's Cartoon, which can be seen at the Detroit Free Press. Shows a slovenly obese man dressed in green (how appropriate - perhaps it is Mr. Thompson himself) saying "Ok Fosset your latest round-the-world flying escapade is over, now please come back down to Earth"

A (badly done) caricature of Fosset with a T-shirt reading "the ego has landed" replies "But I already landed the plane". The envious goofball in green replies "That's not what I meant".

Egads, we can't let a man bask in an incredible accomplishment for less than even 24 hours before some punk in the MSM tries to tear him down.

Pathetic.

Verily this cartoon gets the nomination for the award for The Most. Pathetic. Envious. Editorial. Cartoon. Ever.
