Agree with the message, but as a couple of others have pointed out, the art work looks like something out of "Der Sturmer."

This pricture perfectly captures my belief that liberals have no respect for where money comes from. I truly believe Mr Obama's fiscal and monetary policies will have unintended consequences well beyond the textbook consequences both of which will be detrimental to the security of the nation. I hope I'm wrong.

Sorry, counselor, word just came that he gets the house, and is moving in the monster in law. You are being the garage. Also, support is pegged at 75 % of all income, past and future.

Again, I must point you gentlemen to the magic of Google Image. Try the Jim Crow Museum site. Cartoons are not created in a vacuum; they build on the images that have gone before. And in this case, Glenn and I both calling foul, not because of the (tired) idea of someone picking a pocket, but because the way Obama's figure is drawn deliberately invokes a whole gallery from the past.

@Mark S: Sorry, can't help you; not kidding. Go look up some examples if you like. Big ears like Alfred E. Neuman's are one thing…these are…different.

@StanH: Project much?

Sambo? I didn't know Obama was from India. Who knew?
