Obama the Chimp? Weigh in On this Caricature from the NYPost.
Posted on 19. Feb, 2009 by admin in News
We usually dedicate this site to Tech News and Twitter mania, but we thought this was a good topic to post about this morning.
The New York post recently published a cartoon that shows a monkey being shot by two police officers, quoting the following “They’ll have to find someone else to write the next stimulus bill“. Many are “pissed off” at the cartoon, as they claim it depicts Obama as the chimp being shot. Cries of”racism” are all over the internet and tv news.

The cartoon comes in the wake of a recent chimp attack on a woman this week, after the “domesticated” ex-tv star monkey went “crazy” and went on a rampage at it’s owners home. The results of this rampage were the monkey being stabbed several times by its owner and then shot three times by a local police officer.
What do you think? Is this cartoon straight up “racism”? Have they gone too far with this cartoon? Is it a clear attack on Barack Obama? Post your comments below.
