New York Post : Obama Chimp



The caption reads "They'll Have To Find Someone Else To Write The Next Stimulus Bill" , and the cartoon was run the day after Obama signed a very large stimulus bill for the economy in the USA.

And the Post defends the cartoon saying ...


The Post said the cartoon was meant to mock what it called an "ineptly written" stimulus bill.

"But it has been taken as something else -- as a depiction of President Obama, as a thinly veiled expression of racism," reads the statement. "This most certainly was not its intent; to those who were offended by the image, we apologize."

Hmmm... nope ..not going to cut it. Still looks like you're calling Obama a monkey, which is a fairly racist thing to do.

Sorry. Apology rejected. I hope you get sued out of business.
