This is the Most Disturbing Newspaper Cartoon You'll See All Day (Ramirez is link only - Mod)

Call Al Sharpton a radical. Call him a hero. Call him divisive. Or call him an activist. Regardless of your opinion of Al Sharpton, the recent cartoon in Investors’ Business Daily's editorial section is appalling.

I’d say that about nails it. Sharpton and the truth are like oil and water. Of course many people are like that when it comes to race.

Truth hurts? I don't find it appalling, at all. I find it waaaaaay past due. If Sharpton’s antics would have been met with a proper response decades ago, a lot of misery could have been avoided.

What the left finds appalling is that THEIR imagery, that THEY use to cow their political opponents into silence,

is being used, EFFECTIVELY, against their agenda.

Have you read the comments at the article!?

The Obama Flying Monkey Squadrons For Truth are all over it, flinging poo on anyone who dares agree with the pic.

That is an excellent cartoon ... some folks apparently can’t handle the truth. Sharpton and his cronies actively try to destroy the truth, as depicted in the cartoon.

So sorry if we “disturb” the sensibilities of race baiting hustlers.

That's nothing. The political cartoon from the St. Louis Compost was an elephant with a thought balloon with a voting booth that had a sign "whites only" on it. The caption was "I have a dream". I'd paste a link to the pic but couldn't find it on the stltoday.com website, so any assistance would be appreciated. I shot off a short letter to the editor that it was in bad taste and nothing but race baiting. Reminded them of which party was founded as the anti-slavery party as well as which party was in favor of civil right legislation.

They left off the Duke LaCross team. It is spot on.

Oh come on... anyone who puts themselves in the political arena opens themselves up to this... up until the dawning of the age of Political Correctness, this cartoon would have been considered fair play... even tame...

I’d say it’s a good taste of his own medicine.

You're right, but if you try to convince a Lib of this, his or her pointy little head will explode. Don't bother them with the facts; their minds are already made up.

That is not so much a cartoon as it is an illustration.

I wonder if they’d feel better about it if it was depicted as a SA/ANC style “neclacing”.

Poor little Nicholas, whose panties are now knotted beyond repair, is bio’ed thusly:

“Editorial Intern at PolicyMic. I am junior at Tufts University majoring in Economics with a minor in Entrepreneurial Leadership. I have a profound passion for the American political process and a love for my country.”

In other words, college student, who has been conditioned from kindergarten to believe his leftist liberal teachers that one must NEVER counter the likes of Al Sharpton with brutal facts, faints dead away when smacked upside the head with reality.

So let me get this straight:

Sculpture of the Virgin Mary covered in cow dung is a great piece of art according to the NY Times.

A crucifix in a jar of urine is another great work of art.

But this artist’s accurate rendition of Sharpton is beyond the pale and must be banned.

Hypocrites.

Doesn’t hold a candle to how the MSM treats conservative commentators, especially conservative minorities and women.
