Outrage from New Hampshire! (Sickening! Bush Crashing into WTC)

Outrage from New Hampshire!

Our friends at sister site PoliticsNH.com brought this offensive political cartoon to our attention. It was drawn by Mike Mariand and printed in today's Concord Monitor.

We don't have a problem with those who criticize President George W. Bush. In fact, we've taken a few shots at the Commander-in-Chief ourselves, when we thought he deserved rebuke. But to use the horrific September 11th terrorist attack on the World Trade Center that killed almost 3,000 innocent civilians to make a political point about the president's budget is disgusting. If Mariand were drawing cartoons in 1941, would he have drawn President Franklin Roosevelt piloting one of the Japanese fighter planes that participated in the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor to convey his opinion on an issue of the day?

If you would like to tell the folks at the Concord Monitor what you think about their political cartoon, we urge you to e-mail Mark Travis, the editorial page editor at mtravis@cmonitor.com. (2/8)

Please Belgian Fry them for me.

Most maggots are a special treat in survivial schools. High sources of protein are packed in each maggot. Belgian Fried Maggots are really tasty!

However, these maggots would be like eating poisonous toad stools!

"I have never been so disgusted by a newspaper in all my life! Obviously no one at your "rag" knew anyone who died there. Tell me, did everyone there laugh when people were forced to jump to their deaths? You people are truly vile."

[Come get it]

Hey, can you guys add me to your ping lists for the humor threads?

Many thanks.

How would they feel if we drew a picture of x42 riding Monica into the towers labeled "Constitution" and "Rule of Law."

Left a voice mail. Mr. Wilson doesn't sound like a happy guy on the recording, but that could be unrelated.

Name one happy liberal. He deserves all of the s%$# that is and will be falling on his head. That is the worst thing I have ever seen in a newspaper! [/rant]

[metesky]

As a former resident of the Granite State, I find it hard to express my disgust at how far you people have fallen.
You are so far below George W. Bush.

.....nice comment!.....

Fired off three E-Mails to Jay Severin in Boston 96.9FM Talk Radio.

Will be fun to see what he does with it, he's a maniac.

Thanks Guys.

But why is anyone here still trying to either understand the insane Evil of which liberalism is but a manifestation -- or to suggest there are levels of acceptability to be found in it?

This is but an illustration of the envy-motivated and hatred and rage-engined evil that is liberalism -- not an "excess" of it.

The fault lies entirely with the editor, not the cartoonist. The editor approved it for publication. Writing to him is useless. Money talks. Let subscribers and advertisers cancel their subscription and their advertising. And, when doing so, inform the publisher of their reason for doing so.
