Wow, look at the way they mentally stretch over themselves to try and make Obama look bad!

Like, it's SO common for black police officiers (who I am sure that are the mayority in most police forces in the country, like in most positions of authority or power!) to beat innocent citizens up! Or how horrible it is that Obama shot down YET ANOTHER jet fighter that the world's only superpower needs to fight... erm, communist menace? What a good way to show that it is bad that a president actually keeps within budget! After all, presidents should spend in a way that shames drunken sailors! Oh and the ice sheet thing is SO new and creative to the global warming argument!

I was amused that they had an anti-global warming comic... that shows the ice caps melting.

They have done that many many times.. There are close to a dozen cartoons that use melting ice caps as a metaphor for showing that... Melting ice caps are a hoax...

Personally my favorite Anti-Global Climate change cartoons are the ones that come out EVERY Winter which basically amount to "IT IS COLD THEREFOR GLOBAL WARMING IS A FRAUD!!!"

There's a reason for the cartoon I wish I could find by Matt Bors with a guy drawing the traditional snowing therefore global warming is a fraud comic and remarking, "I keep drawing this comic later and later every year."

Look again, the "race-baiting" cops are representative of the black community and prominent figures thereof, beating up Rush Limbaugh. So they're complaining that Limbaugh is getting dogpiled and injustly labeled a racist. And the best metaphor they could think of was a police beating. How incredibly sensitive and tasteful, because clearly Rush Limbaugh's suffering is comparable to actually being a victim of racism (rather a hate-spewing talking head who gets butthurt when people have the nerve to be offended by him) and actually getting beaten in the street.

I actually found 4-5 "Poor little Limbaugh" strips, but this won out by being the most offensive.
