If only some intrepid syndicated cartoonist would test Condi, now...
...by drawing a cartoon of her that really pushes the envelope of propriety but is politically relevant.

C'mon Ted Rall. You're not afraid of the bushistas.

1. Here's the best I can do...

2. "My darling...."
:rofl:

I don't know--I think a lot of people would be offended by the depiction of Condi as the stupid, fawning groupie (maybe not here, at DU, of course). I love how they're about to go over the falls.

:thumbsup:

5. You mean like this one?

Sorry, I don't see what purpose it serves to sink to racist caricatures when referring to our political opponents. I'd rather beat them with better ideas than viler insults.

Incidentally, I firmly believe the proper control of nasty speech is through criticism, not censorship. Exposure to offensiveness is the price we must occasionally pay for free speech and the other freedoms it underpins. Those who publish hateful things deserve our full condemnation (another exercise of free speech). Criticism is not censorship.

Peace.

6. I agree but it wouldn't surprise me if Rall is eventually censored.
