New York Post Cartoon

Oh, yeah, about the cartoon with the chimp shot dead and the cop saying, "Who we gonna get next time we need a stimulus bill signed?" or some such rot:

Dumb, just dumb.....I mean, 7th grade idiot not-funny attempt at humor dumb. I decent middle school student editor would have nixed this tripe.

Best comment I heard on it was on NPR's call-in show Talk of the Nation. Someone sent in this reaction:

I don't think the lady whose face was mauled almost beyond recongnition would find it funny.
I don't think the lady whose chimp was killed would find it funny.
I don't think the thousands of people, mostly young black males, who are shot by police each year would find it funny.
And I don't think our first African American president would find it funny.

'Nuff said.
