Sharpton, Activists Protest New York Post Cartoon
FReep the poll on this link!
Sharpton has to get hustle time.
I don't find the cartoon terribly funny but I find Sharpton's response simply hilarious.
Sharpton's response is indicative of how Liberals view African-Americans more than anything.
It is Libs who view African-Americans as hopeless, helpless nincompoops who are incapable of wiping their own butts without some sort of government program to do the deed for them.
In short, they are projecting.
"..Tawana Brawley controversy
Attorneys Alton H. Maddox and C. Vernon Mason joined Sharpton in support of Brawley. A grand jury was convened; after seven months of examining police and medical records, the jury determined that Brawley had fabricated her story. Sharpton, Maddox, and Mason accused the Dutchess County prosecutor, Steven Pagones, of racism and of being one of the perpetrators of the alleged abduction and rape. The three were successfully sued for slander and ordered to pay $345,000 in damages, the jury finding Sharpton liable for making seven defamatory statements about Pagones, Maddox for two, and Mason for one.[35].."
I do not know if he paid.
Where in the Hell is Jessie? Couldn’t get a plane?
Since Obama didn’t write the stimulus plan how could anyone assume the dead monkey was supposed to represent him? I thought it represented all the idiots in the House who wrote the bill.
I remember when Al was protesting this cartoon by Pat Oliphant mocking Condi Rice http://www.americandigest.org/mt-archives/po041116-thumb.gif please can some one help to get this pic on the board thanks!
Seems like I ought to buy more ammo... Bad things are going to happen.
Last night on Alan Colmes’ radio show, he grilled a caller about this cartoon. Alan just kept calling the guy a racist. He clearly was not of course, but Alan cannot be reasoned with as you know.
I wish the caller had brought up how the libs said Bush looked like a chimp all these years. Evidently Alan chose not to acknowledge that ever happened.
Having looked at this cartoon for the first time today, I see no reference at all to Obama. Seems like the point of the cartoon is that the Porkulus is so bad, it seems to have been written by an ape.
Agreed...to me it is a slap at the pasty-faced, botox-injecting speaker of the house.
One of the early morning posts on NewsBusters pointed out the Pelosi-Chimp connection, too.
Pelosi (and Reid) wrote the bill
Imagine the outrage if the cartoonist had taken the obvious next step and had drawn a Pelosi hairdo on the chimp!!
I thought we were taught in government schools that we were all descended from primates. Are we to believe now that that was not accurate?
Yes. It's reminiscent of the riddle which asked, "How many years would it take 100 monkeys to correctly type Hamlet?"
I guess the real question is,
"How many minutes would it take 50 Democrats to remove obsolete documents from dusty file drawers in order to assemble them into a 1000-page stimulus bill."
Hey, If you put enough “lipstick” on that Ape, it’s still a PelosiReidPorculusSenate!
Do you find this cartoon offensive?
No 85%
At the time of this post.
“Shovel ready.”
LOL!
The cartoon is perfect!
