WOW

This is the image the New York Post had in its paper Wednesday. Now if you have been reading the news or listening to any kind of radio stations you know at least two things. One the President is coming out with a huge stimulus package and two a woman had a monkey as a pet that attacked her friend. Now these tow events or so unrelated that it is kind of funny to link them in this way. I do get that the cartoon is making fun of the stimulus bill as to say that is so stupid a monkey wrote it. And goes further as to play on the fact that the police killed the monkey that attacked the person as to say we should do that to the stimulus bill. I complete got the message and did think it was funny. Even though I am boarding the President’s stimulus bill train but still it was funny. Being a Black American I was in no way offend by neither the message nor I think anyone should be. Well maybe the “people” who wrote the stimulus bill and maybe the monkey. The cartoon could be considered borderline, if you want it to be, racist attack on the President. What happen to freedom of speech? The cartoonist obviously did not mean to attack the President in any kind of way and far cry from being a racist attack. The cartoon is clearly making fun of the damn pet monkey and the artist view on the stimulus package. All the people boycotting; REALLY? Is this what hundreds of Black American fought for equality so we can boycott political cartoons that may suggest a hidden meaning? Look at the color of the President and the Attorney General. I think the President can take of himself why not try and help the hundreds of kids who will get pulled into gang related instance this year. Just a thought……
