The New York Post is no friend of Obama. I don't know about the primaries, but they wasted no time endorsing McCain for President. Also, when the Lipstick On A Pig episode came out, the Post chose to put that on their front page instead of news about the anniversary of 9/11.

The pig remark is not the same thing. Why is it so hard to see why some are angered over this? They are not thinking that the final bill was written by Congress. Most of the criticism of this bill was aimed at Obama. Obama was the biggest supporter of this bill. Obama introduced that bill to Congress therefore Obama wrote it. That is the perception of those who are offended by the cartoon. I have no respect for The New York Post and find their explanation difficult to believe. They are a tabloid and from their headlines that I see almost every morning, they are not shy about causing controversy. I believe they knew exactly how this cartoon could be interpreted. Even if they did not mean to be racist, the cartoon was sick and twisted. They made a parody of a very recent event where a frightened animal was shot and killed after nearly beating a woman to death. What the hell were they thinking?
