Back in London last week, Lancaster concluded: "While as a cartoonist I hate to see an easy target lowered, I am bound to say that personally I much prefer the .American the way he is today." The upgrading of boobus Americanus brought quick kudos from roundhouse Rightist John O'Donnell in his column in the New York Daily News.
