NAACP : FIRE EDITOR CARTOONIST BOYCOTT THE NEW YORK POST

[mumbs45]

What I see here is a group of three cowardly white males afraid of being ridiculed if they disagree with the opinion of the NAACP.

[bubbiz99]

Hey Jungle Bunnies? Can u take a joke as well as Mr G W Bush? Obviously not. Mr Sharpton get yo nappy headed ho butt back to the jungle!!! Shame on you a**holes nobody spoke up for Bush when ppl made fun of him openly.  Learn to take it like a MAN NOT a chimp. I have never believed in evolution. But I DO see a resemblance to apes in BHO"s face!!!! Just Kidding you 2 faced liberal jackasses. Not so funny when it's yo man in the black house (ah, white house).

[5jerry1]

@bubbiz99

As nasty as that comment was, you have made some good points. People can dish it out, but can't take it at all.

[MrsPigSmellFromMecca]

BULLSHIT that cartoon had nothing to do with race. I thought it was funny as shit anyway...so what are all you cunts saying? OH it's not FUNny so don't print it, oh it's RACIST so fire the cartoonist. I thought it was funny and the racist asshole DID NOT EVEN CROSS MY MIND. How can we worry about what everybody in the fucking world thinks about this or that. Screw this P.C. bullshit. FREEDOM OF SPEECH - LET IT GO !! the PROBLEM is pussy liberal bitches like the ones on this video.

[highoffasharpies]

retards this is really stupid its a cartoon/comic soon will all just smell some sharpies and forget about it

[doointhedoo]

you would have to be an idiot to not interpret that as racist. They NY Post clearly did that for controversy and controversy breeds sales. That's all big corps think about. They really don't care who is offended.

[dlwke2]

The NAACP sounds like the real racists to me.

[zl1vette427]

Is the NAACP still around ? I though those race-baiting bigots and goons had become the welfare junkies of ACORN.

[cocobear33]

Al sharpton is the biggest racist in america

[StoogeWatcher]

NAACP = Black KKK. THey still support the Crystal Mangum "rape" hoax.

[StoogeWatcher]

NAACP = RACIST

[memolong]

if you look at the toon the cops gun is smoking but isnt pointed at the monkey they very well could have shot at the suspect who shot the monkey,,,

[memolong]

no one person wrote the bill its says

"to write "it doesnt say to sign, come on people learn how to read ,dont read something into nothing

[memolong]

where does it refer to any particular person as a monkey,,,,surely the stimulus bill wasnt written by just one person

[zhour1014]

Why are you Sooooo critical about racism?!?!?! So if it was a black owned newspaper and a black cartoonist refering to the Pres as a Monkey, it would be OK then? The Newspaper refered to Bush as monkey cause they thought like many people of ALL races that he was an idiot, just like many people of ALL races think Obama and his Stimulus plan is stupid and hair brained.

[zhour1014]

i dont RECALL ANYONE BEING UPSET WHEN PRES. BUSH WAS PORTRAYED AS A MONKEY IN CARTOONS,NO UPROAR.NOW its our turn,we are going to treat your black pres, the way with the same respect you showed bush.I love the ny post.

[matuber]

zhour1014,

Was it a black-owned newspaper or a black cartoonist that referred to Bush as a monkey?

[BXGUY73]

Racist cartoon, racist N.Y. POST = DON'T buy the N.Y.Post. SIMPLE

[libsaresocialist]

Collectors items. Buy, buy, buy. I'm subscribing to the NYPost, so are all my friends and everyone in the State of California. Yea NY Post.

[fraudspotter]

KEEP IT UP AL SHARPTON, KEEP TALKING ABOUT IT,,THE MORE YOU BABBLE ABOUT IT THE MORE COPIES THE N Y POST SELLS. KEEP IT UP..... MSNBC, are you getting a cut on sales from the N Y Post as well?

[fraudspotter]

IT IS MORE IMPORTANT TO FORCE OBAMA TO UNLOCK HIS SCHOOL AND BIRTH RECORDS,,,,,not to worry about Al Sharpton promoting sales of the NY Post. Why worry about a cartoon when Obama is hiding his birth and school records to prove he is a citizen. THIS IS MSNBC wasting time on a cartoon rather than the important issues.

[fraudspotter]

BLAME IDIOT AL SHARPTON,,GET RID OF AL SHARPTON,,, IT IS HIS FAULT,,,,AGAIN,,,,ITS SIMPLE. The best way to sell magazines is controversy. You can blame Al Sharpton for the thousands and thousands of extra copies The New York Post sold. Well done N Y Post,,, Had the idiot Sharpton and the rest shut up about it, no one would have heard, and way less copies would have been sold,,,,I think The NY Post should give Sharpton a % of the extra sales. Shrpton took the bait and sold with it. way to go Al.

[jagovRUS]

cartoon wasn't racist; anyone who thinks so is an idiot.

[RobertLaquan]

if u cant see the connection ur a fucking dum shit

the president is black,

he wrote the stim bill

blacks were rather are racially refered to as monkies... hmmm

dont take a genious

[jagovRUS]

In fact, the president HAD NOTHING TO DO WHATSOEVER with the writing of the stimulus bill. Try again, "genious".

[RobertLaquan]

not literally wrote u fuckin hillbilly, but has become synonymous with this bill,

[jagovRUS]

hillbilly? lmao. The bill is refering to the writers of the bill(NOT OBAMA), and the bill itself, saying it's so stupid a chimp could have written it. If anyone has a right to be upset, it's the chimpanzee population.

[matuber]

jagovRUS,

Most people, including the cartoonist, thought that Obama wrote the bill initially. Even if he didn't, he was in such support of it, and he is the one who has introduced it.

Why should the chimpanzee population be upset?

[jagovRUS]

Chimpanzees should be upset for the same reason the Geico cavemen were: Geico was so easy even a (stupid) caveman could do it. And the cartoonist is implying that the stimulus bill is so stupid a chimpanzee could have written it. Ya digg?

[matuber]

I initially DUG what you were saying on a simplistic level, but I gave you the benefit of the doubt, that there was something profound behind your statement. I must have been sleepy or something when I entertained the comment. :-)

Peace!

[jagovRUS]

Wait, so was i profound or no? I'm so mega-confused right now.

[matuber]

Here's another YouTube video where a person gives a poor excuse for his racist behavior when his business came under attack. We already know what type of people will BELIEVE him just as they believed the racist cartoonist.

YouTube Video:

Racist Barack Obama T-shirt

[theblackandwhitenews]

Do you want to see Obama get PAYBACK on Rupert Murdock, the NY Post, and this Racist Cartoon?!!!

Then just click on my username...

It's a hilarious video that will make you feel good about this pathetic situation...(Only 2 minutes long)

Enjoy...

[matuber]

the balckandwhitenews,

You are a riot!!! LOL!

[ab1tchslap]

If we can compare bush to a chimp we can compare obama to a chimp. Otherwise we're being racist.

[PlastikBlakLawnJocky]

the naacp needs to be dissolved, we have had equality laws long enough to not need this racist group, same as cong. black caucus, cong. hispanic caucus as well as other hispanic groups. everyone in this country is equal. what would happen if we had an naawp for whites, or a cong. white caucus? hispanics and blacks would scream 'racist!' and al sharpton sure as sh*t would be in the lead. if something like that isn't racist i don't know what is. thanks for keeping america segregated, black idiots

[StMarcus00]

Don't purchase NY POST. BOYCOTT THEM. they are fucking idiots.

[matuber]

I hear that they also own MySPACE. We need to make some noise over there too. We have to stop sitting by and letting these hateful acts happen while allowing people with racist mindsets make us feel like we are playing the race card.

We have been here long enough to know the difference between kind and loving people vs. hateful and bigoted individuals. We must run them out of business so that our children will inherit a kinder country.

[Gotchasucka]

NY POST is also owned by FOX network. Go figure!

[vito445]

Boycott? Niggers cant afford the papper in the first place!

[provanost]

And I suppose you are the kind of individual who would have said that blacks are not intelligent enough to be lawyers, doctors, authors...or president? Your racist views have been on the decline for a long time and thankfully your kind will soon be extinct vito445. What makes you think that only blacks found the cartoon offensive? Did you not see the whites in this very video who were upset? Stop using such hateful language and accept your inevitable extinction. PS-it's paper, not papper fool.

[vito445]

It is you who will be extinct soon.

[armyofonerd]

I was not hinting that you thought it was important and I agree with you that the only reason it made the news is because Sharpton and the Obama following media will not let it pass by. I'm sure CNN and NBC, ABC, CBS, MSNBC, PBS and the NPR will cover it on a daily basis. Don't tell me you have not notice many stories not being covered by all news outlets except Fox, have you? This is such a non-story but here is Sharpton trying to get some shake down money from it.

[TranCendenZ]

Brytize1982: News channels cover what is "sensational"--NOT what is the most important world news. Most American idiots couldn't tell you what happened in Pakistan or Iran recently, but they can tell you about this stupid NY Post cartoon.

What if for argument's sake the cartoonist is in fact racist? And? The cartoonist is just one single insignficant man with no power. Why are you giving him so much attention? Because he can draw?

[jfallas]

But one of the main criticisms of the stimulus bill was that it was actually written not by the Obama Administration, but by Congressional Democrats. Obama basically let them write it, and it explains in part how really awful the bill is.

So the target is congressional democrats and not President Obama. Altough, of course, it was seen in another light and perhaps the comment was unfortunate.

[Pacmaniacone]

yes it was racist

it was meant to be

it was a satirical cartoon btw

and it is a shame that anyone would have to apologize for exercising their freedom of speech

just goes to show you the hypocrisy in this country.

[Zero4Mars]

Actually, it wasn't meant to be racist.

Lawmakers wrote the bill, not Obama. Also, I'm quite sure the monkey is a reference to the chimp that got shot after attacking a women some time ago.

Nevertheless, it's a case of the public jumping to false conclusions, adding evidence to the theory that satire really has died in the papers after September 11th :\

[matuber]

Zero4Mars,

Why did the cartoonist bring the Stimulation into the chimp cartoon? If he thought it was funny that the chimp was shot, then why not just joke about the fact that chimps will get shot when they attack their owner.

Obama has DRIVEN this stimulus package. Both Hillary and McCain joked about Obama being assassinated. Blacks are called monkeys by racists.

Stimulus+Assassination+Monkey= Racial Joke (purely intended)

[Zero4Mars]

Simple mate: The cartoonist combined the two stories because...

1,) Both were quite popular in the recent news

2.) The stimulus packet is a pretty big thing at the moment.

3.) Who hasn't went "wtf" at the monkey stories.

And, as I said before, lawmakers practically MADE the package, hence why the cartoon states "They'll have to find someone else to WRITE the next stimulus bill." Did Obama write it? NO.

Thus, it is logical to conclude it was a no more than a "pop" reference.

[Zero4Mars]

With that said and done, I'd just like to add that one can find racism in anything if their searching for that specific detail.

[matuber]

Do you not see the irony that he chose to pair the chimp monkey with the Stimulus. There are many jokes that could have done about the Stimulus that involved no monkey or assassination. There are many jokes that could have been done about the Monkey being shot that did not involve the Stimulus. He covered all three subjects: Assassination, Monkey, and Stimulus because he is a hateful bigot & he is hiding behind his clever wording. One word saved his job. He said "write" rather than "Sign".

[Zero4Mars]

And drawing random factors of which to support your conclusion is rather bias as well.

Look mate, the writer, along with the publisher, states that it was indeed a reference to the chimp incident. Yes, there are many jokes, but the cartoonist chose THAT ONE; perhaps because it was because he thought it be more funny; perhaps he wanted to play upon the ever classic theme of referring to our state/law men as a group of primates; perhaps the chimp story was chosen because it was RECENT and popular.

[Zero4Mars]

Hell, everyone I practically know who keeps themselves up to date on the news whether it be on major networks, the internet, and/or comedy central spoofs has heard of the chimp-shooting incident that happened RECENTLY. Also, I doubt anyone who works for a well known company as such would dare make a racist statement, even a comical one, on purpose. This is simply a case of a comic being taken the wrong way by overreacting "critics."

As for you, and your "coulds" and inferences...

[Zero4Mars]

...I advise trying to look at this and future situations logically, and don't let personal feelings muddle the situation as much. Research about the story about it before creating your own so you can reach a more accurate conclusion. While a pessimist may make a good king, one with a clear mind makes a perfect ruler.

[matuber]

ZeroMars,

Everyone knows about the Chimpazee incident. Those who are really informed knows that the New York Post does not like Obama as well.

As far as the cartoonist is concerned, we don't believe him.

Don't be gullible all of your life Zero Mars.

Oh well, the NY Post has apologized. Apologies r often effective n discouraging future mischief by the same company r others such as Texaco & the Black Jelly Beans incident or the many other companies opertating under the "NUD" banner.

[Zero4Mars]

Gullible, mate?

I hate racism, homophobia, religious extremists, and just about any other bigoted-blokes one can think of. However, I don't see the point in calling "treason" on something that very well has the evidence to back up that it was a little joke. Aye, there are morons in the media that show their true visage for a sparse moment and end up hastily issuing an apology after wards, but I don't think this is the case.

You have your views on this issue, and I have mine, I guess.

[Gotchasucka]

Well said matuber. You're right on target.

[matuber]

Thanks Gotchasucka! I am constantly amazed to see that some people will never see anything as a racist act unless there is a death involved.

[Gotchasucka]

ZeroMars-Bless your heart. I think you're too young to understand. There is no doubt it was racist. You're naivety is sweet though.

[Zero4Mars]

No mate; I'm surrounded by it. Constantly.

As I said before, I hate bigots, but I don't believe in creating an imaginary insult out of a misunderstanding.

[Gotchasucka]

Zero4Mars-There is nothing imaginary about it. It is bold, blatant, and shouldn't be tolerated. You'd have to be either naive or in denial to not see it for what it is.

[Zero4Mars]

Vice-versa, on the naive part :)

[TranCendenZ]

Brytize1982: Why would a news channel cover a tiny political cartoon? Is this the most important issue in the nation or the world?

[armyofonerd]

The cartoon is funny, it was not written by Obama and it has zero to do with racism. I am so happy that the Post is standing up to the racist Sharpton and his goon squad. They only create news by their actions. This is nothing more than payback by Sharpton about breaking a story about Sharpton 1 year ago by the Post. Hey Sharpton, pay your 1.5 million in back taxes so we can use it in the stimulus.

[jesskat]

I think the cartoon was racist and not something i would have put in the paper, however you don't really have a right to say what they can put in the paper and what they can't. You shouldn't be able to tell a company to not do what they do, because its "art" (i mean that loosely) they can put what they like in there. Only thing you can or should do is write to them saying you are cancelling your subsriction and here is why.

[Danglingchad]

Sean Delones is a feminine type of man. No wonder he likes to start cat fights.

[pedagogic1]

The moonbats called bush a nazi...no outrage

This cartoonist has won 3 Pulitzer prizes and Sharpton doesn't have an ethical bone in his body

[arlenearmy]

I called NY Post to offer my support and demanded that they NOT fire the cartoonist. NY Post stick to your position.

[xpandergt]

Maybe they're needs to be a counter protest against the NAACP!! I'm a black guy, and I know that the comic was NOT racist. The two major news stories last week was the STIMULUS bill and the 200 pound chimp that was shot. I hope that the Post's circulation INCREASES because of this stupid boycott. I hate race hustling poverty pimps!

[darlingliz26]

If the GOP is serious about changing their image and "reaching across the isle", then why hasn't the RNC Chairman Michael Steele stepped up to demand that Col Allan, the Post's editor-in-chief and cartoonist Sean Delonas resign or be fired? How un American. What are other nations going to think about America. shame.

[eclud15]

i think everyone should take whatever they have shoved up their ass OUT and get over it. its a fukkn cartoon.

[hek211fhwa]

Sharpton is a shake down artist hiding behind the color of his skin.

[feeney57]

Obama didn't write the bill.

Obama didn't even read the bill.

He just signed it and added a trillion dollars to the national debt.

[KeanuReeeves]

liberal democrats believe they evolved from the monkey, whats the big deal, its not like the monkey was wearing lipstick, then they would have compared it to michele

[ZZZZZZZZZZZZAMBONI]

get keanu's cock out of your mouth

yr mumbling and we can't understand you

[daddyrich3701]

Because for hundreds of years white people have referred to us as apes. I, myself have no hair on my arms or legs and very little on my chest. Unlike most white men.

[naughtygirlga]

The cartoon is obviously racist! The story about the chimp, has nothing in common with whats going on in DC, yet this is supposed to be innocent. Yeah Right! Bigots referred to blacks as monkeys. The Post is know to be racist. When you hear "stimulus," you think Obama. Anyone reading the exchange between the cops, knows their talking about Obama! The Post knew what this picture ment, which is why they did this.

[darlingliz26]

I agree with you. Its just taste less. I am black and usually dont get upset about racist comments but when it comes from a major new paper which other nations will also see on TV makes me sick. We are suppose to set an example around the world and this is what we already think of our President It also make whites look bad but i know many whites are also offended by the Cartoon. There should be a limit to what is printed in new paper and shown on TV.

[ralpheboy94]

the goes too show that whitefolks and the mainstream media dont give a damm about blacks you got a black president in the white house know inhale the racism that goes with it this system has no respect for black folks you can protest all you want too and we shall over come and remember white america are the main authors of racism ps there will be and all out race war in the country very soon

[bm4nu]

I don't care who you are that is some funny stuff. God its going to be along 4 years.

[ZZZZZZZZZZZZAMBONI]

thanks larry the cable guy yr posting again-inbred deliverance piece of shit

[sidney4jah]

bush got no life.obama got life.we must cccccccchange this raccista shit.lets fucccccccccccccccccck this white folks.we have d chanccccccccccccccce now.lets sale them all to iraq n iran ppl.sale america now.

[pr2525]

i think more white people got there feelings hurt by this than black people...

[ZZZZZZZZZZZZAMBONI]

hahahahahahahahahahahahhhhahha­hahahahahahhaahahhahahahaahaha­hahhhahahhahhahhahahahahahahah­ahahahahhaahhahhahahahhhahahah­hhahhahahhahaahahhahahahahahha­haahahhahhahhhahahhhahahahhahh­aahhahahahhhahahahahahahhahhah­ahahahhahhahhahhahaahhahhahaha­hahahhaahahahahahhahahhahahahh­ahahahahahahhahahahahahhhahhah­ahahahahaahhahahahahahahahahah­ahahahahhhhhahahhahahahahahahh­ahahahahhhahhhahahahahahahahah­ahahaaahhahahahhahahahahahahha­hahahhahahahhahahahhahahhahaha­hahhahahahaahhahahahahahahaaha­hahahaahhahahahh

[juserphx]

two words: easy distraction. add 'meaningless'~

[polandone]

OK the stimulus bill was not written by OBAMA it was written by the house of representatives. the cartoon was making fun of the house of representatives not obama if it said that " They'll have to find someone else to SIGN the Stimuluis bill" then i would believe that it was Racist.

[FistFullofSteel999]

The whole fucking thing makes me sick to even look at. What in the name of fucking shit was this ass hole thinking of. Even to have a random shot of a police officer shooting a chimpazee complete with blood splattered on the ground would be grounds to say the guy was a little sick. The fact that it was obviously intended to depict Obama is totally fucking racist to the core. Anybody that can't see that is fucking socially retarded.

[vikingaprinsessan]

I don't think this was supposed to be racist at all. As a person of colour I don't feel offended at all but seriously... where were the editors on this one?

[eldrama1]

I have to disagree that it was not racist. What if the slain animal had been an elephant? I doubt the cartoon would even exist. and look closely at the ears.

[frellthat]

Has anyone noticed that the chimp in the cartoon is fucking white? Look at his skin.

[vikingaprinsessan]

It's a chimp because of the woman who was recently attacked. It's NOT Obama.

It was in poor taste but.. come on. It's not racist.

[0lado]

uuh ur an idiot

[ZZZZZZZZZZZZAMBONI]

so why did the post apologize twice?

[vikingaprinsessan]

If you watch Keith Olbermman's interview with Al Sharpton it doesn't seem like they even came close to apologizing.

If they did decide to apologize, well it's only common sense. When you get yourself in a PR nightmare you have to apologize no matter what your intentions were.

I get the whole monkey/black person racist angle, but I just don't think the idea was racist. I think they were trying (as satirists do) to combine 2 popular stores and knock washington politicians in general.

[igoysiak]

there are white monkeys too not only black ones...

[pr2525]

lol wow

[HilliardM15]

wow, I can't believe people like you still call black people NEGROES...to me it resembles the word NIGGER!

[HilliardM15]

I think it was about that chimpanzee attack on that lady, not Obama.

Black people (I am half black) aren't monkeys...chimps...or anything of that nature, so it never came to mind when I saw that cartoon and should not affect anyone...black, white, purple, etc...

[savethedanceforlast]

AMERICANS AND THEIR RACIST SHIT

[Dridenhour98]

i Just wanna say to all the races white ppl out to quit hating and get over it yall had since George washington a white pres. let somebody have a good term besides a white person...Selfish ass ppl damn and that shit was racist as hell they just tryin to cover it up they just was tryin black ppl thats all to see if they could get away wit...Not neva no more...

[DarcPrynce]

Apparently leftists aren't intelligent enough to understand that Barack Obama DIDN'T WRITE THE STIMULUS BILL, and in fact he hasn't even read it! Certain members of CONGRESS wrote various parts of it and then bound those parts together at the last minute before voting on it. The cartoon in question isn't about Obama or racism, it's about Democrat Congressmen who behave like irrational subhumans.

[belvdr31cb]

Well you could have a point if one of the cops in the cartoon were black, asian or whatever but since they're whites, the cartoon can be found extremely disappointing funny.

[mopinia]

You people are a bunch of hypocrites! There are dozens of cartoons like this berating Bush, Palin and Christianity. Get off your fucking high horses and put your heads back in your asses, you fucking hypocrites!

[AfriQueen26]

But it aint your fault... hatred is taught, so I guess I should blame your useless parents for raising you with defaulting moral standards. Cant even imagine what your kids are or will be like if you dont seek help.

Yikes!

[AfriQueen26]

Oh yet another racist... get help okay? Hatred isn't "in" anymore, it's 2009, black is the new president... get with the program.

It's okay not to hate, it really is hun. lol.

You can call us monkeys all day and it aint never gonna make us monkeys.lol

Dont cry now, it's okay... blacks are really humans and their blood is as red as yours... shocking eh?

[quran777]

The cartoon was racist. The NY Post has a history of putting up racist ads so I am not surprised about the ad, nor am I surprised that the NY Post is sticking by the ad. This is not the first time Obama has been depicted as an chimp/monkey. He was depicted as such during his run for the presidency, which shows that the NY Post ad was no accident. Now they are depicting him as a chimp that was shot up and you clowns are asking "how is this racist??".. C'mon man!

[pissoffcake]

that cartoon isn't funny but I don't see how it's any different from the mohamed cartoons that so many people talked about a few years back: to some people it was offensive but if some agreed cartoonists had the right to say/draw what they wanted then, why not now?

[atltallone907]

Why does everyone on here lie about there age? way off the point but its interesting to me lol

[spookyben]

In order to take this cartoon as portraying Obama, you must make certain assertions:

Obama wrote the bill (he didn't)

Obama is ape-like (not to me)

Therefore those most outraged are arguing from a position of ignorance.

And the only politician I've seen likened to a chimp in the last eight years was GWB on just about every liberal website.

[billwings2]

Why is an opinion opposite yours a position of ignorance? If something someone says or does offends you then you have the right to say so. Who am I to tell you its not offensive if it has no bearing on me? Its not about the bill and its not about the ape its about an attempt to be funny that was poorly done and poorly received. Interpretation is up to the reader regardless of the artists intent.

[spookyben]

Read my post again Einstein, I explain why. Obama didn't write the bill, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid did. Just because YOU think of a Obama when you see a chimp doesn't mean people who aren't racists must.

Grow a brain.

[billwings2]

Perhaps you should re-read my response. I neither support or object to your interpretation of the cartoon. My comment was directed at your statement that others argue from a position of ignorance because they don't see your way. You should consider dispensing with the name calling, and condescending remarks when you post your comments. I respect your right to express your opinion you should respect mine.

[reececup33]

Whats fair is fair this is racist.There is no oops about it.Whether you like obama or not.Like the man said show this cartoon piece to Germans, Scandanavians,ext.. they will think the same thing.Its a shame but thats what happens when you have freedom of speech.

[JENANJUZE]

OOPS, I'll get right on it, thanks ZZZZZZZZZZZZAMBONI.

[znotty]

it certainly can be seen as racist but whatever it is its in bad taste.

[majestik143]

New York Post is nothing but good as toilet paper when nothing is available. Ugly, provocative, oh yes big time racist and disgusting. If this is not racist what is racist? If not what is funny about it? Only a racist can laugh at it. The message is intended to stir racist feelings among white people. You can ask it anybody in the World. Message is clear. Murdoch and his owners own Fox and NYP

[Quantanthead]

Matthews attempt to stick up and worship the most high...Obama. Far from racism when it was a bunch of Democrats other than Obama that threw the unread bill together. He just did the damage of signing it in furthering the destruction of America. This nation is crumbling from within as some great communist leaders of the past said it would. Like the lobster boiling in the pot, most of the country won't even know it until they are almost dead.

[JENANJUZE]

This country was already crumbling, and destructing long before PRESIDENT OBAMA was elected, and thank your almighty bush for speeding up the process! Placing the blame on PRESIDENT OBAMA is your game plan anyway! He has done more good the little time he has been in office than bush's 8 year run!

[ZZZZZZZZZZZZAMBONI]

IF YOU FEEL THAT THIS VIDEO IS RELEVANT please email it to your friends. do whatever you can

thank you

[ewill1130]

This is an outrage! We all need to bombard the editor with our emails. It is disgusting that in 2009 we still have this blatant disregard for other humans. This is sad.

In a country that is know across the globe for its hatred, one doesn't have to reach far to "get" what the Post meant.

Political satire has it place, but this has gone too far. If the NYPost has to reach this far to get a funny, maybe they should consider shutting their doors.

Please keep our country in your prayers.

[FistFullofSteel999]

Stinking fucking American shit - won't ever end will it.

[highfencejumper]

This was done with ill intent, sad. The cartoonist should be fired and blacklisted.

[FistFullofSteel999]

Actually - MOTHER FUCKING SAD - coming from a fucking national newspaper???????????????? What the fuck is up??????????????

[FistFullofSteel999]

If this isn't a racist cartoon - nothing is. I'm a Canadian and have the ability to look at your country from the outside in. There are still lots of American cunts that are fucking racists till the day they die - this is a prime example - FUCKING SAD.

[leevince1972]

I believe the Lady this chimp attacked had her face and hands ripped off. I can only imagine how this cartoon may be offending them. Also, the direct connection many will draw from this should have be too obvious for any editor. This is the thinly veiled rascal pins in the pin cushion all African Americans face. This time, they have stuck a pin into the back of our own President. It's shameful but representative of the hatred that's apart of America. It's shameful.

[jamesrobertdobbs]

No excuse. Even if it is being misinterpreted, a cartoonist has to be aware of possible misinterpretations, and make the interpretation clear. That is part of the skill of being a cartoonist. Possible misinterpretations can be acceptable if a cartoon is very very funny, which this is not. This is a crap cartoon no matter how one interprets it. No excuse.

[gobbism]

If you don't think the cartoon was racist you might consider how the police who shot the chimp in Connecticut might be offended, not to mention others hurt there.

it's just bad taste all around.

[JENANJUZE]

It's pointing out that the bill was so bad that even an ape could write it MY ASS!!!

EVERYONE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT THE RACIST PIG MEANT, AND AS FAR AS THE NEW YORK POST, THE EDITOR AND PUBLISHER, MOST DIARRHEA RUN TOGETHER. GET OVER IT AND BOW DOWN TO YOUR PRESIDENT BECAUSE THERE IS NOT A THING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT!

[Imkoikichi]

While I do agere that this was racist and poor taste, I am NOT going to bow down to Obama. He is NOT the messiah, he's NOT a God, nor is he a king. What is wrong with you Obama worshippers? THOU SHALT HAVE NO OTHER GODS BEFORE ME, ever hear or read that, or are the 10 commandments not relivant in this liberal world?

[JENANJUZE]

First of all I could care less what you think is in poor taste or not, secondly, who said PRESIDENT OBAMA was God or the messiah, furthermore did I ask YOU to bow down?! Lastly, I don't need a racist trying to preach or recite verses from the Bible to me! Get over yourself! Oh, since you felt the need to recite verses, YOU TOO BOW DOWN TO YOUR PRESIDENT, TRASH!

[Imkoikichi]

ROFL so because I don't worship Obama like you do I'm a racist. We all knew that it was coming to this, those of us that don't like his policies are now racist. I'm proud to be a racist then, thanks for redifining the word racist for us.

[JENANJUZE]

where can we boycott, anyone know?

[jacquelinesusanlives]

boycott!!

[JENANJUZE]

Boycott!!!

I dont see a connection to Obama. Seeing as Congress wrote the bill, its clearly pointing out that the bill was so horribly, that only an ape could write it. Obama didn't write the bill, only liberals will make this into a racist issue because they love playing the victim. i cant wait for rev sharpton to make a big deal out of this and do some sort of rally, because he is a huge instigator on racial issues.

[highfencejumper]

You're so stupid, it was implied towards Obama. Get over it, and African-American is President of The United States! Go Obama, you sir President have my support!

[UberSciFiNerd]

I'm all for African Americans, but any smart person can see it was aimed at the idiots in Washington who wrote the bill, because Obama didn't write the bill. I liked the cartoon; it was clever.

[lifusion]

its not really all to clever. its cheap.

[Quantanthead]

I was going to say the same thing Obama did not write the bill, but I guess the brilliant Chris Matthews couldn't figure this out. They are all talking as if this bill was just all Obama's brain child.

[highfencejumper]

Then you're part of the problem. This was clear racism.

[frellthat]

As someone who voted twice for Obama, volunteered for the campaign and posted videos to YouTube to advance his candidacy, let me say that to claim that there is anything racist in this cartoon is pure lunacy and that anyone, black or white, who is offended by such a cartoon needs to grow the fuck up.

[highfencejumper]

Well good for you! This has nothing to do with growing up, racism is at the corporate level and white people think this type of behavior is ok. sad.

[UberSciFiNerd]

sorry buddy, you are the problem. you make situations into racist controversy to play the victim. Like Al Sharpton making a big deal out of this....you are the racist one creating racial divides by making this about race when it clearly has NOTHING to do with it.

[highfencejumper]

I'm not your buddy. You must be deaf, dumb and blind to see anything other than what was implied. I call for a boycott and the firing of the cartonnist and all involved.

[agada2008]

Not that they don't see what was implied, they see eat but it's so shameful that they want to hide the evidence. In Germany, when you called a neo Nazi racist, he always cries that he is not racist. It's the same thing

[lewinskeeed]

race baiting hatred

jews karma is a motherfucker

auschwitz anyone?
