Let's see: big lips and the classic "Uncle Tom" response to the master, "Okay Chief! Anything you say chief." I believe the cartoonist tried very hard to hide the racism by making Condi a parrot. The lips could be explained as a beak. Condi's responses which border on "Yes suh, master suh!" are cleverly disguised as that of a parrot.
We could be misinterpreting it, but the oversized lips kind of seal the deal for me.

I think the big lips were a license to make fun of her teeth.

Get real. I see nothing racist here. It's clearly met to imply she is parroting Bush.

You may not agree, you may not like it, but there's nothing racist about it.
