tone deaf.
 

That is so racist and so funny all at the same time!!!

I agree and expect Al Sharpton to be in a neon colored jogging suit today. Can't believe it made it in.

What do you think is funny? You mean funny like laughing at the white-trash character Brad Pitt played in the movie Kalifornia? In other words..."the messenger" ...not "the message."

The protest is on. Tomorrow in front of the Post's headquarters in Manhattan. Neon colored jogging suit is optional.

Racist? the fact that a chimp could have written the stimulus bill has nothing to do with our beloved president......I mean...really! How politically thin-skinned can you be?

it's pretty disingenuous to pretend that black's haven't been portrayed as apes and monkey's in cartoon's by those trying to make a point of their alleged inferiority. for hundreds of years.

more troubling is the post's response which completely ignores the issue.

if i tried to post that cartoon here with a "guess derby trail needs someone else to post anti-turk rants" caption, how long would it last?

and nothing personal scuds. i think you're nuts but that has nothing to do with your skin tone.

at best, it was tone deaf. but more likely the tone was intended. which is even more troubling.

...I think you're projecting...and that's dangerous

just to be clear.

are you unaware that we have a black man as president or unaware that portraying black people as monkey's is a slander?

wonder why they had two white cops doing the shooting on a street?

and why are they wide-eyed, kinda like "heck that may not have been
the right thing to do..."

Kinda reminds me of an incident a little while back.

WHO said it was portraying Obama??? A total idiot would feel that he could get away with that portrayal of Obama......more likely that he was trying to point out the IQ of the authors of the stimulus bill

white cops shooting accidentally, sort of, on the street...
hmmmmm

pretty much anyone who noticed we had a black president and that chimps have been used for hundreds of years as substitute's for black people in racist cartoon's.

thus the initial title of the thread "tone deaf".

it anticipated your defense.

move along, Sharpton, there's nothing here!

I'm not defending the cartoon,period. I'm saying it could be taken another way

Seems to me there is even more than a chimp.

Sharpton.
Does that mean I am supposed to call you Hitler?
Or Sgt. Schultz?

We're talking about a cartoon.......Schultz, definately!

it would help if the cartoonist explained it.

but he's not talking to the media since it was published. and his paper's only comment ignored the issue.

you don't seem hateful timm.

but you do seem to have a knee jerk reaction to defend anything published in a rupert murdoch publication.

notice i haven't said anything about al sharpton?

you really don't want to defend idiots of any stripe.

The phenomena of the Political Cartoon is usually not explained, but I could be wrong. Maybe the paper needed to explain it? I don't think I'm hateful at all. Who publishes the cartoon...if syndicated....then more than Murdochs papers would be defending worse cartoons than this one,imho

AS is a certifiable POS

Why should the cops look like "uh oh"?
And killing the chimp stimulus writer on the street.
I find that an interesting way to do this.

Or you see nahting?
