Coming from Palm Beach, you don't expect much less, but Contact PalmBeachPost.com and let them know what you think of their political cartoonist anyway.

Besides, other papers are picking up and printing this garbage, including the editor of my local.

I don't suppose we'll ever see a cartoon of a donkey holding the "BUSH KNEW" edition of the NY Post and saying "What great campaign material!"....

It's sickening and reminds me of a recent post by a (former) freeper - a picture of the engulfed towers with President Bush laughing in the foreground. It's despicable - as is that "no current freeper by that name".

Actually, I was sort of surprised that it was a regular pen-and-ink drawing, just like a real cartoon. Coming from Palm Beach, I was more or less expecting it to be drawn in yellow crayon on a cocktail napkin...

My fan letter:

"Just when I thought Democrats had sunk as low as they possibly could and still claim membership in the human race, I'm proven wrong.

No tactic, no strategy, no accusation, no propaganda is so vile or outside the pale of basic decency that the party of Clinton won't pick it up and run with it.

Will we be seeing a Wright cartoon soon depicting ex-President Clinton hanging up the telephone on the Sudanese when they call to offer Osama bin Laden to the U. S. on a silver platter? Will we be seeing a Wright cartoon depicting Democrats wielding a huge pair of scissors and cutting the Intelligence budget to shreds?

As repulsive and sickening as this cartoon is, I'm actually glad you printed it. Anything that hastens the long overdue death of the Democratic party can only have a salutary effect on the U. S. Kind of like lancing a boil - unpleasant but necessary for the healing process to begin.

Please, take all the rope you need."

I recently cancelled my subscription to the Palm Beach Post specifically because of Wright's "cartoons." Any newspaper which publishes Wright's swill forfeits its right to my subscription.

some time ago I had chanced upon a Palm Beach Post newspaper and while browsing through the Religion section I was horrified to read the articles I read!!

One article by a pair of Catholic priests (one being a Monsegiuor) DEFENDING Muslims as being righteous in their cause; I had to stop for a moment and look on the name of the paper again because I thought it may have been the Iraqi Times or Weekly Jihad from the middle-east.

The second article was by some critic who was literally tearing down Tim LaHaye end-times fiction prophecy books as "preying on the weak minded masses who huddle in the churches ".

Methinks that Florida is not far off from becoming a Kalifornia.
