Damn racist, funny in that sick sorta way that a motivational poster would reflect...

I think it's a clever joke to get publicity and they still haven't technically done anything wrong. What with obama not having written the bill himself and with the recent chimp shooting incident.

blacker than wesleysnipes- 98' trans am
i believe it was ment to mean obama is a monkey..with no race involved..kind of like how they called GWB a monkey many times..but along those same lines the cartoon is on a tight rope since it can be seen and interpreted as a racial comment

to me what that cartoon really says is that the stimulus bill is crap and sounds like a 5 year old wrote it.. i.e. a monkey who's got the mentality of a 5 year old. They used the monkey bc of the recent incident... But i could see how it can be misconstrued as "racist" I suppose.

You guys crack me up with the comments. You guys get into the psyche of the cartoonist. LOL

I dont this its racist at all. Does anyone remember that old old simpsons episode where homer had a room full of apes/monkeys on type writers making him a book? Same thing here. I think the person that made this cartoon was trying to say that the stimulus bill was written poorly and to the quiality of an animal writing it. I dont know. I can see how some would see this as racist...but i believe that it is not what the cartoon ment.

Would you make monkey jokes about something your black boss wrote (yes I know Obama didn't actually write it, but most of the American people don't) at work? Hell no. Some cartoonist was trying to be cute, and some editor is a complete idiot.

more issues in this country then if a cartoon is deemed racist.
I dont think it is, I find the picture funny and who ever drew it has an excellent clever sense of humor. something this country needs more of.
we need more humor, less politcal correct sensitivity....
