Sorry but, as much as I disagree with everything about that cartoon, I see nothing "racist" in it.

Same here. It portrays Bush in baby-speak and Rice as a sycophantic parrot as best I can tell. Thoroughly repugnant, but I have no idea where the racist claim comes from, unless someone is errantly reading the baby-speak as black-speak; that's a stretch since there's really no resemblance, but it's the only thing I can figure.

The racist claim is exaggerated big lips and big teeth. No conservative can draw a black that way and get away with it. Besides that it's demeaning in general. There really is something very angry and sick about leftists. They are reprehensible human beings.

IF republicans would play rough, they'd savage the dems as racist against Condi and use that to turn off black voters to the dems, and rightfully so. But that's an IF that won't be happening. So racism is tolerated.

I agree MissMan, it's not "racist" (Oh, how sick I am of hearing that hruled about!) but it is so utterly disgusting and dehumanizing that I stated that Oilypant should take his tar bucket, brushes and used wallpaper and move to Paris.

Cannot believe that someone called in to Neal Boortz show and said Condi got where she is, by sleeping around. Good grief where are the brains of these people?? Thank God we have GW and Condi.

Actually the more racist cartoon is by Danziger at the NY Times. Condoleeza Rice is holding an aluminum tube used for nuclear reactors and saying "I knows nothing about aluminum tubes." This pays homage to the black slave in Gone with the Wind. NYT has pulled cartoon but if you google right you can find it.
