It looks fucked up at face value, but I don't think anyone at the Post would seriously want to publish a cartoon referencing a high profile black person as a monkey.
LOL @ conservatives trying to say the monkey represents congress.

That is one of the reasons why such heinous bills are pushed through, that said, when the dust has settled, if the politicians had ANYTHING about them, they would be pushing en masse to repeal the given legislation.

I mean, god, with this kind of non-transparency, I mean I have no idea what's in there. Maybe those Obama f***ers thought that no one would read it... damn non-transparent f***s.http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=111_cong_bills&docid=f:h1enr.pdf
even if this fucker the drew the comic was not trying to be racist which he was.... the editors should have pulled it before it was printed and published just shows u they most likely don't have any one black or of color working on their editing staff that would have been able to see the racism in that and demand it be removed!
