Based on the contributor and commenter, I suspected before starting, that the clip would be both juvenile and nonsensical. I clicked off after "no one could prove he was borne." More crazies on the loose.

Common,
You will never persuade anyone of your liberality and openmindedness if you are unable to consider an opposing point of view. Of course, all the crazies on the loose are on one side. And no progressive commentator ever attacks the character of the opposition. Artistic license is no longer tolerated, is it?

Democrats have no sense of humor. Put up a joke post and you will find out. Put up a picture of Bush running in the special Olympics and it is the funniest thing in the world even if it made fun of the s. Olympics children.
I have one dog that plays games and likes people. I have another that has no idea how to play and will bite kids. The second is a Democrat.

We already live in Imagination Land - the land where pride has been replaced by lies as just another acceptable means to an end.

Sometimes the hard biting and irrevokable truth can best be found in humor. Something Commonsense does not seem to understand.

Funny! I remember some of the Bush videos. They were funny as well. It's really bizarre how you could make fun of Bush, Gore, Reagan, Clinton - every president - but say one thing about Obama and you're a racist or a hater or whatever else they make up.
-- Posted by not_sorry on Sun, Apr 10, 2011, at 11:15 AM
They call all republican racist and then Obama puts a tax on suntan beds. Now that is racist.

A cracker tax!

OJ that is a good name for it. What is they put a tax on dreadlocks? Jessie and All would be leading the protests.

If you are not an ideologue, it is pretty funny as have been others about Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton etc.
I disagree with President Obama's policies as I have others, but he seems like a nice enough guy.

No Party,
What part of the cartoon did you find to be inaccurate?

Democrats do a much better job of hating. Look at the way they HATE Palin.

Telling the truth is not spreading hate.

As you read and post comments, keep in mind the liberal Democrat creed of 'hate what you are afraid of'. They hate the truth most. As BO said, we are the enemy since we disagree. Fine statement for a so-called uniter. What a joke! It will be over in due time.

Postings since my comment about being more constructive have possibly suggested I might be: a democrat, a liberal democrat, a Palin hater, upset, afraid of this cartoon message, a James Jones cult type, and a truth hater, and a hate spreader. I made my post because I believe it is true, he could support the conservative views in a much better way, and to see what kind of comments it brought. The attacks on my statement are the actions that are hurting conservatives much more than helping. If you want to turn the tables in 2012, speak intelligently without insults, and you will gain respect. But thats not as much fun, I know. Thanks, I'm off this post now.

Apparently No Party is also very thin-skinned. He could have replied directly to any of the postings he referenced but instead he chose to take his bat and ball and go home!
And I did not understand any of the postings to contain personal insults.
-- Posted by Robert* on Mon, Apr 11, 2011, at 1:47 PM
I realize "No Party", sure is gone, but political satire has been and will be around as long as there are politics, probably some on cave paintings somewhere, no need to take any of it too seriously.
I did not see the cartoon as being hate filled.
I am sure some will remember the skit with Ronald Reagan being so mentally addled he hit the nuclear launch button and many others on conservatives as well as liberals.

"... say one thing about Obama and you're a racist or a hater ..."
Have noticed that a lot! Irritates the heck out of me. Bothers me, too, that I actually believed an Obama presidency would mean at least the beginning of the end of such things ... Guess just mainly because he himself fussed and seemed troubled by the huge numbers of absentee-fathers, gangs, irresponsibility, etc. within the Black community.
Sadly enough, it's that same 'community' that attempts to keep racism alive ... without it, there might be an end to special treatment/considerations, an end to votes just because of race (Can you imagine someone like Rangel getting elected if he were white?) ... No one really wants to know/admit that our country is in a way holding people back ... by making excuses for 'failures' or bad behavior or ...

I ask again. Is the tanning bed tax racist? My answer is yes. Do that on Malt liquor and the libs will call me the KKK.
-- Posted by We Regret To Inform U on Mon, Apr 11, 2011, at 7:42 PM
Agree, BC ... If it weren't for 'special interests,' guess no one would show up at election time?
I dunno, Regret ... Must be such a trial trying to find things to add taxes to, don't you think? Got to find things that won't upset any really large group?
What's interesting is ... alcohol. Mention increased taxes, and open the floodgates. Mention increased tobacco taxes and feel confident of major support. ☻
-- Posted by gurusmom on Mon, Apr 11, 2011, at 7:52 PM
PS: Tanning beds ... a tax on those who want to be People of Color? Nothing wrong with that ...
