A cartoon satire of US President George Bush will appear on American TV channel Comedy Central, according to the Hollywood Reporter trade paper. Mr Bush and key members of his administration will be portrayed as children in Lil' Bush: Resident of the United States. In one scene Lil' Bush is seen torturing cafeteria staff for serving up falafel instead of hot dogs. Six episodes will be shown on the channel next year. The cartoon first started after a series of five minute clips were offered as part of a mobile phone service. The original episode can also be found on the YouTube website, which has drawn more than 230,000 streams so far. It is not the first time Comedy Central has commissioned shows which poke fun at Mr Bush. In 2001 it screened live action spoof That's My Bush, by South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone.
