Sorry McClain... I do hope that women recovers. I've heard that chimps are pretty nasty or at least the adult ones are (I've heard that the babies are considered cute pets by some people, only to be abandoned when they get older and all chompy-chompy)

I don't care if the cartoon is racist, because it isn't funny. It's typically republican humor. Pick something bad that just happpened and associate it with something you don't like. It's like the humor gene is missing. The basic elements of joke structure are there, but the artist doesn't actually understand what a joke is.

I could do the same cartoon and say "The republicans need a new Chairman of the Republican national party". It would be equally unfunny and equally racist."
That's what I'm saying. It's not clever, it doesn't make some sort of message (besides "Ha ha, here's a swing at the stimulous bill!"). It's pulled off with all of the subtly of a batter swinging with a refrigerator. Plus, even if they didn't intend for it to be racist (which was probably the case), they had to be idiots not to see the idea would be picked up as such.

And pac-man, no I do not. Not in the slightest.
