And after you read the “excuse” given by the newspaper’s editor for the dead monkey cartoon about Obama’s economic stimulus package, you really need to check out the same cartoonist’s other cartoons, including depicting gays as people who screw sheep, and a cartoon showing Al Qaeda celebrating the Democrats’ electoral victory in 2006. This guy really exemplifies what’s become of the conservative movement. The best argument they can make about how to proceed in the face of our economic crisis is a racist joke about the assassination of our first black president. The party of Limbaugh, Palin and tax-cheat plumbers lives on.
