What?

This has been perfectly acceptable for 8 years, maybe 9, and now you want to complain?

Obviously portraying the President as an ape is meaningful and necessary ~ why this sort of thing draws us together as a people!

I'd say this is a sign of the dawning of an age of sweetness an delight!

Not complaining about any comparisons, real or imagined nor do I really care whether Obama looks more like a chimpanzee than George Bush. I explained my view in post 45 and to elaborate...

"I'd say this is a sign of the dawning of an age of sweetness an delight!"

To use somebody's horrible, personal tragedy to make a political statement is sick and twisted. Imagine that was your mom. Imagine that was your sister getting attacked. Imagine that monkey was your dog. And now some low-life is making light of your personal tragedy to make a political statement in a political cartoon.

Listen to that lady's voice in that 9-1-1 tape and tell me you'd be fine with the cartoon even if, God help you, it was YOUR voice on that tape. And if that thought never crossed your mind when you first saw that cartoon, you are holding on to the political joystick a little too tight, pal.
