It may be less a matter of offense than a concern that it is somehow libelous. Do you think the mods should weigh in on this or am I out of bounds by suggesting this?

Politicians and media generally don't walk stuff back, just provide a pseudo apology.

The graphic CLEARLY is not libelous, just read it. It's the seriousness of the charge, not the actual situation.

Did you read what is in the little box on the left side from you, or did you miss that?

It is obviously satire. If it’s legally acceptable to publish a cartoon showing Jerry Falwell in an outhouse having sex with his mother there is absolutely nothing offensive about or legally threatening about that picture.

Anything goes with a public figure. ANYTHING.
