btw for those who didn't see the not so subtle racistist overtures, poorly timed, and "inept" political satire, to find humor in a cartoon of a dead chimp, obviously a victum of his polluted evironment. not less than 48 hours after brutally mauling and permanently disfiguring an innocent woman clinging to her life should look in the mirror...." Humor without compassion or empathy is no humor at all. If the idiot cartoonist wanted to mock the Stimulus package, then he should have drawn a cartoon of Obama, cluching in hand a bottle full of little blue pills, stamped, made in the USA, with a huge boner sticking out of his pants and Nancy P...on her knees..... That's funny!
NY Post cartoonist under fire for portraying stimulus author as a dead chimp.
Think Progress —
Today, the NY Post published a cartoon by Sean Delonas showing two police officers shooting a chimpanzee, in a reference to the recent incident in Connecticut where a pet chimp attacked a woman. In this cartoon, however, one of the policemen says, “They’ll have to find someone else to write the next stimulus bill”:
In a statement, the Rev. Al Sharpton questions the racism that appears to be in Delonas’s cartoon:
The cartoon in today’s New York Post is troubling ...

Here's Obama water-carrier Sam Stein, a nutroots blogger who magically found himself seated in the front row at the Obama press conference last week, so you know he's in the back pocket of the administration. A cartoon likening the author of the stimulus bill, perhaps President Barack Obama , with a rabid chimpanzee graced the pages of the New York Post on Wednesday. The drawing, from famed cartoonist ...

My gut reaction to the cartoon below, by Sean Delonas of the New York Post, isn't the same as that of Al Sharpton, the Huffington Post, Gawker, and others -- I'm not ready to say that Delonas is taking a racist swipe at Barack Obama: The cartoon alludes, of course, to a recent story about a chimpanzee in Connecticut that was shot after attacking a woman, a story the Post has been flogging for days. Yeah, I know -- I'm the guy who ...
The Despicable Racism of the NY Post

... earlier this week. Not something one would think ought to be made into a joke. Especially an overtly racist joke that involves an assassination wish for our President. But that is just what the New York Post has done today in publishing this cartoon: monkey cartoon 1.jpg Naturally, the Post claims there was no racist intent here, and says Al Sharpton is just "a publicity opportunist" for saying otherwise. Hmm. Sounds every bit as genuine as the denials that a certain T-Shirt distributed by a right-winger during the campaign was racist: monkey cartoon 2.jpg Why would anyone ...

... At its most benign, the cartoon suggests that the stimulus bill was so bad, monkeys may as well have written it. Others believe it compares the president to a rabid chimp.

To some, including the Post’s management, Sean Delonas’ cartoon takes a huge and sickening story in the news about a wild, 200 lb. chimp who virtually ripped a woman’s face off and was shot by police and uses it as a take off point. These folks believe the furor raging among some activists and Internet sites is a case of something being seized on and blown way out of proportion. ...

It is the most powerful political weapon the left and the Democrats have at their disposal and it is something their opponents cannot hope to counter or match. It appears that the mostly white Huffington Post got the ball rolling as their excellent but partisan political reporter Sam Stein wrote the initial article decrying the portrayal of Obama in such a fashion. It was picked up by the ...
