New York Post: Not Fit Upon to Poop
Today is Friday, 20 February 2009.
"They'll have to find someone else to write the next stimulus bill".
I tried to put the actual New York Post editorial cartoon here, but seems it's blocked.
The foregoing is the operative phrase; the visual is two white cops, one of whom has just shot dead a chimp.
Post line: it's not racist. Let's just forget the long American history of portraying African-Americans as apes and monkeys. And the not-subtle nexus of Obama and the stimulus bill.
And forget the fact that, as any New Yorker knows, the Post under Rupert Murdoch's control has been the newspaper of "coloreds in cuffs".
As any decent New Yorker knows: the Post isn't fit to wrap a fish or be crapped upon by a canary.

Ah, yes. But remember, "poop" has freedom of the press just like "champangne" or even "Cheetos."
As an avid reader of the printed daily media, I would opine that your caveat appears to be on altogether to frequent display - unfortunately.
Of course, "poop" has freedom of the press. But when someone poops racism, as in equating African-Americans and monkeys, they should at least have the courage and decency to own up to their racism.
The don't view their view point as racist. Thus, they have nothing to own up to.
