you don't seem hateful timm.

but you do seem to have a knee jerk reaction to defend anything published in a rupert murdoch publication.

notice i haven't said anything about al sharpton?

you really don't want to defend idiots of any stripe.

The phenomena of the Political Cartoon is usually not explained, but I could be wrong. Maybe the paper needed to explain it? I don't think I'm hateful at all. Who publishes the cartoon...if syndicated....then more than Murdochs papers would be defending worse cartoons than this one,imho

AS is a certifiable POS

they usually don't need to be explained.

but i do recall that when the new yorker ran a controversial cover with a cartoon of obama and his wife doing a terrorist "fist bump", him in islamic dress and her with a 70's angela davis fro, the artist was all over the media explaining the cartoon was intended to mock the conservative media's idea that "bumping fists" was related to terrorism.

if either the post or the artist have an explanation, the clock is ticking.
