Even if you set aside the blatant racism of the cartoon.. |

You're still left with something insinuating violence towards the person or persons who wrote the stimulus bill, be it Congress or President Obama.
It's wrong on more levels than one, and those who are all but defending this cartoon need to realize that.

Who think most of us are CHOOSING to see racism in it.
Like I said, it's blatant racism.

3. The racism is a judgement call, even if most of us feel it is, the violence in the drawing is fact. |
