Boston Globe's Christmas Cartoon: Ungrateful White Family Won't Thank Santa Biden
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 12/26/2023 3:09:10 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Those ungrateful white Americans! Why don't they appreciate all the wonderful things that Joe Biden has bestowed upon them?

That was the Boston Globe's message via its cartoonist Ward Sutton on this Christmas Day.

As you see, a svelte Santa Biden points to the gifts he's left under the tree for the family: low unemployment, inflation down, recession averted.

And Biden says to them: "Look what I brought you folks -- this oughta make things merry and bright!"

Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

“Ever notice that the “free press” spills most of its ink, not, as it used to boast, to “speak up to power”, but now to punch down on we the people ourselves?”

Excellent observation. Of course, they only punch down on the people they see as their enemies, which is anyone who isn’t a leftist and/or a “person of color”, homo/trans, etc.

Went to visit a friend a week ago. Last minute so we all decided to order sandwiches from a small local well established restaurant.

3 people, three sandwiches with a side each (fries/O rings) but no beverages. The bill was $75! We were astonished.

That would buy 6 sandwiches with sides about 4 years ago.

So, yeah, you caused 100% inflation but last month it was only 3 percent (if you leave out things like housing, fuel, insurance etc).

Thank you, may I have another.

Record low unemployment. What a joke.

The millions of working age people in this country who are not employed and not looking for employment ARE NOT included in the unemployment numbers.

Not employed and not looking. Now, how can one survive? Obviously, they are being supported by someone. Who? Parents? Welfare? "Disability" checks?

Yes,the Globe had the best Sunday sports section, before the internet. Never bought it during the week but every Sunday morning I would walk to the store to pay 75 cents for the thickest sports section around. I was a sports junkie Red Sox ,Bruins, Celtics and the lowly Patriots. Now I wouldn’t even use it to line a bird cage. The owner John Henry is a pinko commie. As for sports I haven’t paid attention to the Red Sox and Celtics for years. I still listen to the Pats on the radio. The Bruins are my last real sports vice but the NHL is just a ghost of it’s glory days in the 70’s and 80’s.

Only when a Democrat administration is in power. There is no more doubt that the American media is a complete propaganda organ for the Democrat Party! It’s not even debatable.

One thing that is true is that what you could buy at the Dollar Store when Biden took office costs $1.25 today.

But wait! All the price hikes of the last two years are still there, right? Which means prices went up and stayed up, regardless of what the current inflation rate is… ?

That’s mostly true, and it explains why consumers remain in a sour mood and President Biden is unpopular.

Exactly, Inflation is the the rate of prices increasing from last year or last month. When inflation goes down, it does not bring prices down. Deflation is the lowering of prices. We have had a few years of inflation. If we have low inflation or their new favorite word, “disinflation”, prices never revert back to what they were. It takes deflation for prices to fall. We are not close to deflation. In fact we are not close to disinflation which is when prices stay the same for two years. People are angry with Biden because they see the prices are much higher than when Biden took office. The economy is not better. Wages are a little higher. Prices are a lot higher.

You’ve got that right. The increase may have slowed a bit, but ain’t nothing going down in price.

Even people of color are not buying this gaslighting garbage anymore.

When Trump is considering a rally in Brooklyn, you know they lost the narrative.

Precisely, the middle class (esp small biz and retirees) has been damaged by mister Biden’s inflationary policies.
Lowering the rate ( even at their fictionally derived levels) does restore anything.

Perhaps you have to be unable to remember anything more than 1 month old to be a dem. Like paying .30 for a gallon of gas, or going to the movies for $2.50, or dining out at a good steak restaurant for $40 for two.

This might explain their belief system.
