4Play Wrote: This wasn't made up by Kevin James. Its hardly a secret that Islamists in the Arab world will rather have Obama than McCain. If you have the 'misfortune' of watching AlJazeera,you will see an endless stream of Arab crackpots endorsing Obama.Are Brits also islamist? Today's UK Guardian poll suggest most Brits endorse Obama. What point is this guy making?Here's the guardian link: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/jul/14/barackobama.johnmccain |

joke apart: Unless you are a dolt,you will realise that Brits having a strong preference for Obama has nothing to do with Islamists having a preference for Obama. |

It did not occur to this "douche bag" that the reason most people prefer obama is cause of the gung-ho policy of the previous administration. |

@kobo if all is fair in politics, then Obama using the colour of his skin to protect himself is fair too. to the questions u posted above, ideally the media shouldnt be openly biased. im not claiming the media is biased against Obama, far from it but assoiciating someone with a terrorist just because he has an arab name smacks a lil bit of cheap oppotunism. whats the worst u can say about Clinton or Mcain?? tht theyre too American?? Whats the worst u can say abt Obama? tht he s a bloody terrorist loving nigga? well they already have |

simmy:Well, then he ought to be open to being criticism in that sense and basically be open to the “racist” responses that come back at him if he decides that is the way he wants to go. You have to understand that you cannot play that card and then expect everyone else not to respond with the same. simmy:Well…. No rule requires the media switch over to “high-moral” mode, just cause a black man is running for president. This has almost always been the case with the media. Why is suddenly an issue? Let me guess?? Cause a black man called Obama is now running for president, after America has been exposed to Osama ? Lol simmy:Well, if you feel that is the worst they can, then I suggest you get yourself to accept that worse may come and you may have to learn to chill and accept this is ‘American politics’, the show. ROFLMAO!! I mean the NewYorker already promises more of this to come and the magazine is assumed to be very liberal. ROFLMAO!! |

John McCain was also the subject of a cartoonist's unseemly attention. Only this time,unlike the New Yorker's cartoon which was intended as a mordant attack on conservatives, this was actually intended to denigrate McCain. Did conservatives wallow in an orgy of self-pity? No! Its mainly attacks on This is a cartoon from last month's edition of the Rolling Stones portraying McCain being stabbed by Obama,Clinton and Bush which invokes McCain's torture at the hands of Vietnamese interrogators.

I thought this comment from an LA Times(another Obamaniac outlet) editorial was particularly apt: The real mudslinging of this year's presidential campaign won't even start until after the party conventions in August, but it's already beginning to seem as though the Obama camp is a trifle thin-skinned. If it reacts this way to a cartoon drawn by a sympathizer who was mocking the outrageous slurs that have been directed at the candidate, what are they going to do when the Republicans start sharpening their artists' pencils? |

That statement from the LAtimes is right on the mark. |
