We don't normally have a cartoon of the day, (even our "Quote of the Day" is awfully sporadic), but if we did, this would be today's entry. As Allah writes:
The irony of what Rangel said yesterday isn’t that Democrats demonize Bush too, it’s that they demonize him in ways much worse than Chavez did. You can laugh at being called “the devil,” especially if the guy saying it is a fat dictator from a banana republic. You can’t laugh at being compared to Bull Connor. The two posters in Shelton’s cartoon do a nice job of bringing that contrast out. The one on the left’s sort of funny and “quaint,” the one on the right … isn’t.
