Condoleezza deserves better than this.

Re: Jeff Danziger = Racist Cartoonist

You don't think the first one stereotypes her in a racist fashion? If i would have drwan that up and posted it about Jesse Jackson i would be stoned to death.

Probably. But that still doesn't make it racist, no matter what Jesse says (or would say).

Rice is nothing less than a child prodigy. I'm quite sure she can take it. Jesse on the other hand...

That is the question isn't it? I don't know, but I think we all know it when we see it....and since what we see is different for everyone....

Re: Jeff Danziger = Racist Cartoonist

Semi off topic but I just get a kick out of the NAACP and the Dem party in all this. The NAACP should be happy that Condy has ADVANCED...but they are not.

Re: Jeff Danziger = Racist Cartoonist

Just to explain myself further in regards to the first cartoon.

Southern vernacular is hardly specific to any race. I have an aunt and uncle that live in OK. He has his PhD in Environmental engineering, she has her master's in chemistry. Both white, both highly intelligent, both get made fun of mercilessly by our mostly western state family for talking like this strip.

I knows all about aluminum tubes.
I don't know nuthin bout aluminum tubes.

Not argueing with your response at all. I have learned that in politics a great offense is preferred over a great defense (if that makes any sense at all).

Illeteracy is hardly race specific either.

Re: Jeff Danziger = Racist Cartoonist

Both very mean-spirited, to say the least. I rather enjoy political cartoons generally, but I do think it's possible to make a point and amuse without being nasty. Normally a Danziger fan (I went to high school with his brother), I find that one offensive.
