What Happend To All The Cartoons?
I'm referring to newspaper cartoons. To be sure I haven't gleaned all newspapers and there may indeed be a few newspaper cartoonists who still critically appraise a current president but...I don't see a lot (actually, I've seen none!) of cartoons mocking or critiquing our new god-man president, his highness B. Hussein Obama.
On the flip side, it seems that just weeks ago and for the past eight years all critical faculties in news cartoons were directed at the infamous "W."
To add further icing to this pathetic journalists' cake I've seen a few cartoons recently that actually take a valid issue regarding Obama's competence and honesty and twist it into a mocking critique of his opponents position.
All presidents, even ones sent from heaven like Obama, have something to analyze critically. Why is this clown off the hook?
Are there any sane people left in mainstream communication channels?
On a side note, a thousand cheers to the kids of Boulder High School where I substituted and taught for a couple of years, for standing up to the ridiculous idea of changing their school's name in honor of our current (it's been only three weeks folks) president. This Obama worship cult is becoming downright sickening
