I guess Gomez might agree with the Nobel Peace prize award? I wonder when Gomez drew this…? “Views” section’s cartoons are notoriously out of date when they are published here.
When you feed birds, you put on a glove and put breadcrumbs on the back of your hand and wrist?
My original thought was the thick gloves that huge bird trainers wear, like eagles and vultures, so their claws don’t dig into you. But I give props to Charlie’s MJ glove reference.
i imagined that the “frazzled glove has been clawed by the vultures” like you say church
or that obama expected the goons to come and tear at him again but instead the glimmer of peace - response to his overtures - a nobel for recovery set in motion
That is what is known as a “yango” glove in Brazil. It is favored by the chicken farmers (known as “yangaderos”) in the ketzlpoda region of the Rio Negre. The workers are known for the deceptive skill in their capture of the often skittish coc_s and hens; and the quick snap of their studded gloves by which they administer the fowl’s coupe de grace.
Actually, I thought at first that it was Michael Jackson’s glove, but it’s thick and he’s holding his hand in the correct position for retrieving a raptor, so I’m now more inclined to think he let go bird of prey and retrieved a dove of peace. I think this is intended to support his international policies.
America has two methods of diplomacy. The hawk method, where the military is used as a threat. Do what we want or we’ll invade! This method was the primary diplomatic tool used by the Bush’s, the Clintons, and Reagen.
The second method, where the actual State department performs it’s function, is being used by Pres. Obama. It’s why he got the Npbel Prize. The dove landing on the hawkers glove in the picture shows that shift in diplomacy policy.

Isn’t he saying it was a personality award, thus the Jackson sequined glove?

Sequined? Ah just Charlie 555 being deliberately disingenuous, those are, of course, bread crumbs.
