"I have obviously failed to galvanize and prod, if not shame, enough Americans to be ever-vigilant not to let a Chicago communist-raised, communist-educated, communist-nurtured subhuman mongrel like the ACORN community organizer gangster Barack Hussein Obama to weasel his way into the top office of authority in the United States of America."

Nugent insists ‘subhuman mongrel’ comments not racist, promises to stop ‘calling people names’ – CNN Political Ticker - CNN.com Blogs

It's all on a par, really. Traduce the person. You can't seriously think the conversation in the cartoon actually occurred, can you.

It would weigh less than a clip of pistol ammunition, it would save lives and it would make miscarriages of justice a lot harder to perpetrate.

Around 50 US police are deliberately killed each year while on shift. In turn, they deliberately kill around 700 people. Any professional body would be utterly ashamed of those figures. Any professional body would, as a matter of honor, do all it possibly could to deliberately kill fewer people than it loses. Every killing by a police officer is one more step away from even the pretense of public service.

Disgusting OP. I can understand opposition, intelligent opposition, but not slimey sarcasm that the right wing adheres to. Nauseating.

Every killing by a police officer is one more step away from even the pretense of public service.My late uncle was a police officer in Peoria, Illinois, for most of his adult life.

One night a known criminal rushed him with knife in hand and my uncle had no choice but to shoot him. He died.

One man. My uncle told me that he thought about it every day for the rest of his life.

That was a long, long time ago.

Body cameras are the best idea since sliced bread. They should be mandatory for every cop in the country.

I think tude knows how to spell, but is careless in editing, probably he gets overjoyed printing nonsense about Our President.

I have, oddly, heard of Peoria, Illinois. It's where, if one's to be any good as a politician, one needs to be able to persuade the man on the street. It's where one goes to find typical American values. Or I may have got it wrong, of course, I have no idea where I picked that idea up or whether it's still current.

It's always had a reputation as a "square" city, a rep richly deserved, and that's why I left for Chicago at a young age.

Now, having lived in 7 US states and three European countries, I kinda miss it, and I return for an occasional visit, living only 90 miles away in Champaign.

It's a feature of thiose on the right when they can't actually find any argument against someone they go for personal attacks basically they are anti-rational. Subhuman mongrel are the same words the nazis ised to descriobe the jews and anyone else they didn't like.

America was described as a "mongrel nation", grown too rich too soon and governed by a capitalist elite with strong ties to the Jews and the Americans were a "mongrel people" incapable of higher culture or great creative achievements


Leave tude dog#'s speeling alone - he can spell he can type it's both together that are difficult.

I've just wandered briefly round "Stilton Jarlsberg"'s "cartoon" website. My first reaction is to wonder whether he can actually draw anything himself at all, and I doubt it. He takes other people's graphics, mostly photo-shoots, and puts dialog bubbles onto them, with "FY if you can't take a joke" at the end. Presumably the abbreviated profanity is to placate his fundamentalist evangelical friends.

The chap behind the pseudonym never discloses his real name. I'm not altogether surprised that nobody's prepared to take ownership of the midden he's created.

Not so much a creative feeder, more a talentless excreter of vandalized uncredited originals.

Who took those pictures?

Who drew those strips?

"Oh it's a parody" only counts if you credit the artwork creator somewhere.

I assume that the cheesy reference in the name was intentional.
