This Is Just The Beginning

There is only one question that I have. Why is this cartoon such a big deal anyway? You can look in any newspaper in America at any given time, and see the same thing or worse being said about President George Bush. I actually heard a local elected official say it was alright to talk about George Bush because he was a thug, but don't talk about Barack Obama because he is a educated black man. Like millions of others aren't as well. He is fair game now. He is running for the most recognizable job in the country. Some blacks have already lost their minds and he hasn't even won yet. There is nothing in the satire that hadn't already been discussed at length. His religion has always been in question, every since it's been revealed who his father was. And after her often referenced speech, his wife has been labeled as a militant. So what else is new? All I can say to him and his camp is,"put your big boy shoes on." It's going to get a whole lot worse. Between now and November. This is just the beginning.

    What we hear from the Obama camp is basically dont talk about me or my wife. This isnt the first time they have gone on the defensive over comments made about them.

    He has said dont talk abouy my wife but if she is out there giving speeeches and plugging for you, she is fair game. Just as Chelsea was fair game becasue she was out giving speeches on behalf of Hillary.

    It would seem that since Obama is black everytime something negative is said about him people get all up in arms. At the same time, the will be condoning and applauding anything done to any other candidate.
