A political cartoon that was originally published in the New York Post, Wednesday, has stirred a mild racial uprising. The cartoon is based on the recent incident that made national headlines, involving a pet monkey that viciously attacked someone in Stamford, Connecticut. It features two police officers that have just gunned down the monkey, and one of the officers says, "They'll have to find someone else to write the next stimulus bill".

People have assumed that this cartoon is refering to President Obama; as many have associated him with the stimulus bill and there are long standing jokes about black people and monkeys. I guess many people haven't heard the phrase about "...a thousand monkeys working at a thousand typewriters.", because that's what I thought the cartoon was refering to.

Some have said that the New York Post should have seen this issue coming, as it is an understandable mis-understanding. However, it's still a mis-understanding.  The Reverend Al Sharpton is leading a small movement against the cartoon, calling for more censorship. I'm sure it's not a big deal, and it won't go anywhere, but the thing I don't understand is why the issue wasn't clearified in the Fox News coverage. Not even in the hacked-up statements of the creator was there any explanation of what the cartoon actually meant. Fox News should have seen this article coming...

Maybe they wanted to save people the embarrassment? I'd guess it had more to do with the fact that they can still milk that story, later. I'm suprised, though, that this is the first real massively public racial issue that I've heard involving the president since he's been in office. I try to not pay too much attention to such superfluous crap, but this just threw me for a loop.

With the amount of exposure and support that Barack Obama was receiving, I was pretty sure that he would win the presidency. Despite pulling Sarah Palin out of their back pocket, the Republicans couldn't pull it together. Maybe she back fired on them, or maybe people were just sick of George Bush and the Republican party.

As much as McCain claimed that he did not share interests with George Bush, he was president of the New Citizenship Project; which created the Project for a New American Century, whose members basicly orchestrated the Bush Administrations every action. People like Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Karl Rove, and Paul Wolfowitz. To say they don't share interests is a little hard to believe.

I really thought Hillary Clinton would take the Democrats and by the time Obama got the nomination, I was too burned-out on this election to even care about to whom he might be connected. Both the Republican and Democrat parties are backed by the same people, so whoever the American people were tricked into electing was serving the same interests as the other camp.

*Brzezinski with Osama bin Laden

Joe Biden is some kind of higher-up in the Council on Foreign Relations, so I thought they would just pull a Ronald Reagan and try to kill the guy if they thought they couldn't control him. I never would have guessed that Obama's wife was a director of Chicago's CFR; or that Zbigniew Brzezinski was a mentor of his.

I heard this in a video that someone sent me the morning after the election. The video also revealed many other connections that Barack Obama has to the Bush & Co. network that I hadn't even thought to look for. I was too busy watching record numbers of voters come out in the middle of the worst economic crisis we've faced in decades to vote for a guy just because of a lot of hype. Many were concerned simply with the color of his skin.
