Stuff like this involves racial stereotyping and therefore crosses the line ...

... and stuff like this does not!

I see Obama more as the racist Archie Bunker.

Those photos of Manchelle and Aunt Esther are hilarious.Separated at birth

Libs are either completely stupid or they think the world is. They saw nothing wrong with the crap they threw at President George W. Bush ( oh yes I miss him) and seem not to understand the term Double Standard

The publication issued a statement to PIX 11 News that will also appear as a retraction slated to appear in Thursday's publication. "The publisher of the Smithtown Messenger regret any offense taken by our readers at the photographic political satire depicting the current and past presidents on the editorial page in the April 29th, 2010 issue. While we have grave disagreement with the policies of the current Administration, we hold the office of President of the United States in great respect." "We also hold dear the principles of freedom and tolerance upon which our great Nation was founded. We are mindful that the satire seemed to some in poor taste. At the same time, we reject the notions that elected officials, at any level of government, or any race, creed, or color, can hold themselves above the law… or immune from satire. This week the President himself caused some controversy by joking about sending deadly "predator drones" against the Jonas Brothers. We are confident he was not serious, as we are that our satiric content meant no disrespect. We Thank you for your continued readership, and as always, invite your comment or constructive criticism. Our apologies to all concerned."

How’s it racist? Good grief, Sanford and Son was genuinely funny! Everyone loved it, everyone laughed. It’s not a stereotype, it’s a TV SHOW.

Maybe they should have used the white and black couple on the Jerffersons would that have been better?

I thought I saved the pictures and even made a GIF out of them, but maybe not because I can’t find them and don’t have time to search right now. See pics in post #3.
