It's just too . . . .sharp. Mean. Something. I can't help but wonder if some folks on the left don't have a few suspicions about Obama themselves. Or perhaps you are correct - they are just angry that he isn't what he said he is. (And who's surprised?) Deana Bookworm -

Still we have a long, long history of colorful, outrageous, inflamatory political cartoons. I for one would be saddened to see them wiped out by PC-ness, tossed in the rubbish bin with the Christmas trees and ethnic jokes. On the other hand, it does make me smile to see their diapers in a twist! Whaaaaaa .... My, my it makes a difference who’s ox is being gored, doesn’t it?
