Dick Cheney would be played by _Snidely Whiplash_.  
George W. Bush would be played by _Stimpy_.  
John Kerry would be played by _Mr. Peabody_.  
John Edwords would be okay as _Sherman_.  
Ahmed Chalabi would be played by _Mutley_.  
Vladmir Putin would be played by _Fearless Leader_.

More nominations welcome.

I think GWB should be played by **Foghorn Leghorn.** Or at least someone should be.

George W isn’t much like Yosemite Sam, but I wouldn’t want to let the joke go to waste.

Actually, [I can’t top what I wrote in your similar thread from a while ago, so I’ll just link to it.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=5075746&postcount=8)
