Lipstick on a Pig -- the Political Cartoon too hot for Investor's Business Daily?

Earlier today, Investor's Business Daily posted a cartoon from their resident genius, Michael Ramirez, which perfectly captured the essence of Barry Obama's "lipstick on a pig" comment. Copyright restrictions do not allow us to display the toon on Free Republic, but as of the time of this writing, you can view the Mr. Ramirez' artwork HERE.
Later this afternoon, IBD deleted the cartoon from their website, and as you can see HERE, it is no longer listed in Ramirez' archives.
Obviously, the heat's on IBD from the mavens of political correctness.
In my opinion, the only remaining questions now are whether they will pull the above link and when.

Sadly now this thread is a major red color headline on FR. Check out the main FR page. I guess many here just want to live on red meat even if it is totally spoiled meat that will poison the forum.

They even deleted my post expressing my opinion why it is a bad cartoon. Yep my post really violated all the rules of the forum (extreme sarcasm). Really sad.

It is not nearly as bad as the ones of Bush we see all the time in the major papers.
