Lipstick on a Pig -- the Political Cartoon too hot for Investor's Business Daily?

Earlier today, Investor's Business Daily posted a cartoon from their resident genius, Michael Ramirez, which perfectly captured the essence of Barry Obama's "lipstick on a pig" comment. Copyright restrictions do not allow us to display the toon on Free Republic, but as of the time of this writing, you can view the Mr. Ramirez' artwork HERE.
Later this afternoon, IBD deleted the cartoon from their website, and as you can see HERE, it is no longer listed in Ramirez' archives.
Obviously, the heat's on IBD from the mavens of political correctness.
In my opinion, the only remaining questions now are whether they will pull the above link and when.

Yep I know that many on the internet and talk show listeners are just looking for red meat no matter how bad it is. I have a theory about the males who like this stuff but I will not post on this public forum. Hint: Think Manhood and the lack of it.

Obama thinks he knows all about pigs, because he gave his cronies good government money, which they used to build sties in the City of Chicago.

I would like to see an ad that said “Obama, using crap as lipstick to make his message smell better”!

Great graphic. : )
I'd just like to know:
1) Are you the makeup artist?
2) Are the little teenie boppers that took on "Hussein" as a middle name going to have the same nose job? : 8)
