Cartoonist To Watch Fox News For 24 Straight Hours To Raise Money For Obama.

On October 18-19, cartoonist Pab Sungenis will be making the supreme sacrifice to help raise money for Barack Obama. From Noon, Saturday, through Noon, Sunday, the New Jersey-based cartoonist will be subjecting himself to one of the most intense forms of torture known to man.

"I am prepared," Sungenis announced on website Democratic Underground, "to watch Fox News for 24 hours straight" to raise funds for the Democratic Presidential nominee.

If Sungenis, creator of the comic strip The New Adventures Of Queen Victora syndicated by GoComics.com and co-creator/producer/head writer for the video podcast The Idiot Box, can reach his goal of $500.00 in donations made through his page at the Obama website, he vows to give up his weekend "subjecting myself to the horrors of whatever the Fox "News" Channel has to throw at us."

Sungenis promises to liveblogging and twitter throughout the event to try and provide some comic relief and allow his fans a chance to follow along.

"I'm willing to put my body and my sanity on the line for Barack Obama," Sungenis announced encouraging his fans to donate. "Will you do your small part by donating to help make this possible?"

Donations may be made through the Obama website at http://my.barackobama.com/page/outreach/view/main/foxyouobama and updates will be made at Sungenis' blog at http://cnx.com
