The caricatures are playing cards, and the caption reads: "Vote DemocRAT - Join the game."

The artist told the Grand Junction Sentinel that he's not allowed to say who paid for it.

"If it had been me, I would have included the Republicans as part of the problem," said Paul Snover, artist and well-known Tea Party activist.

Local Republican and Democratic party leaders are not impressed.

"It's beyond disrespectful," Mesa County Democratic Party Chairwoman Martelle Daniels told the Sentinel. "You would like to think that we all would show respect for our commander-in-chief, but this is just beyond that. It's racist, it's homophobic, and it's really cowardly."

The chairman of the local Republican party called it "juvenile."

My fellow Americans really shame me sometimes.noway


The only thing I would say on this is you are what you assiciate with. We prosecute people for associating with know Terrorists foreign and domestic and Obama is close friends with a Domestic Terrorist who is still on the list, granted inactive but still on there. He and his wife, also an Obama friend were on the FBI's top 10 most wanted list and when asked wished they dais they made more bombs and blew more stuff up.

Oh and by the way, a bomb that Ayers designed and constructed DID in fact kill three people and seriously injured two while being prepped.




unfortunately many agree with you, Im sure

personally, I think its an illogical fallacy that successful businesspersons of any age would be judged by the personal actions of other business associates

Imagine how far that would go,,,would all congresspeople be guilty by association for having coworkers and co committee members and attending the homes of those who were later found to commit adultery,,or embezzle? that would almost require that NOONE dare make anyones acquaintance or accept any position unless they have done a background check on all parties involved first, which I find ludacrous


....but I guess Im crezy like that,,,


There's a HUGE difference between adultry and Terrorism.

but just as ridiculous to apply the guilty by association theory to either

find where someone was ALSO engaged in terrorism or associated with someone in a TERRORISTIC event or plan,,,and I may label them a terrorist supporter

just telling me they worked with someone who was previously or afterwards found by some other source to be a 'terrorist' is a ridiculousy vague criteria for me to condemn that person for any reason

i think your wrong there...depends on what they can prove, and who broke what law... if you know someone is going to kill someone, and didn't do anything to stop it, as long as they can prove it, your guilty to. the only thing that matters is what they can prove in a court.

IF it can be PROVEN(being the significant criteria) that you
A. knew what they were going to do

or

B. took part in what they did


neither of which usually applies in the guilty by association charges most like to level in the political game

Oh and by the way, a bomb that Ayers designed and constructed DID in fact kill three people and seriously injured two while being prepped.




unfortunately many agree with you, Im sure

personally, I think its an illogical fallacy that successful businesspersons of any age would be judged by the personal actions of other business associates

Imagine how far that would go,,,would all congresspeople be guilty by association for having coworkers and co committee members and attending the homes of those who were later found to commit adultery,,or embezzle? that would almost require that NOONE dare make anyones acquaintance or accept any position unless they have done a background check on all parties involved first, which I find ludacrous


....but I guess Im crezy like that,,,


There's a HUGE difference between adultry and Terrorism.


but just as ridiculous to apply the guilty by association theory to either

find where someone was ALSO engaged in terrorism or associated with someone in a TERRORISTIC event or plan,,,and I may label them a terrorist supporter

just telling me they worked with someone who was previously or afterwards found by some other source to be a 'terrorist' is a ridiculousy vague criteria for me to condemn that person for any reason



last time i checked, adultery wasn't against the law


BUT perjury is and that's what got Clinton and why he can't practice law anymore.


i didn't think he was convicted on anything... has any president had a job after being president?


He was for Perjury, he pled I believe. I know he can't practice law anymore since that is a big no no for a lawyer.

The caricatures are playing cards, and the caption reads: "Vote DemocRAT - Join the game."

The artist told the Grand Junction Sentinel that he's not allowed to say who paid for it.

"If it had been me, I would have included the Republicans as part of the problem," said Paul Snover, artist and well-known Tea Party activist.

Local Republican and Democratic party leaders are not impressed.

"It's beyond disrespectful," Mesa County Democratic Party Chairwoman Martelle Daniels told the Sentinel. "You would like to think that we all would show respect for our commander-in-chief, but this is just beyond that. It's racist, it's homophobic, and it's really cowardly."

The chairman of the local Republican party called it "juvenile."

After the Starr report was submitted to the House providing 'substantial and credible information that President Clinton Committed Acts that May Constitute Grounds for an Impeachment',[71] the House began impeachment hearings before the mid-term elections. Although the mid-term elections held in November 1998 were at the 6-year point in an 8-year presidency (a time in the electoral cycle where the party holding the White House usually loses Congressional seats), the Democratic Party gained several seats.[34] To hold impeachment proceedings, the Republican leadership called a lame duck session in December 1998.
The impeachment trial of President Bill Clinton in 1999, Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist presiding.

While the House Judiciary Committee hearings ended in a straight-party-line vote, there was lively debate on the House floor. The two charges passed in the House (largely on the basis of Republican support, but with a handful of Democratic votes as well) were for perjury and obstruction of justice. The perjury charge arose from Clinton's testimony about his relationship to Monica Lewinsky during a sexual harassment lawsuit (later dismissed, appealed and settled for $850,000)[72] brought by former Arkansas state employee Paula Jones. The obstruction charge was based on his actions during the subsequent investigation of that testimony. The Senate later voted to acquit Clinton on both charges.[73] The Senate refused to convene to hold an impeachment trial before the end of the old term, so the trial was held over until the next Congress. Clinton was represented by Washington law firm Williams & Connolly.

The Senate concluded a twenty-one day trial on February 12, 1999, with the vote on both counts falling short of the Constitutional two-thirds majority requirement to convict and remove an office holder. The final vote was generally along party lines, with no Democrats voting guilty. Some Republicans voted not guilty for both charges. On the perjury charge, fifty-five senators voted to acquit, including ten Republicans, and forty-five voted to convict; on the obstruction charge the Senate voted 50-50.[74]
Law license suspension

In 2000 the Arkansas Supreme Court's Committee on Professional Conduct called for Clinton's disbarment, saying he lied about his affair with Monica Lewinsky.

In January 2001 Clinton reached an agreement under which he was ordered to pay $25,000 in fines to Arkansas state's bar officials and his Arkansas law license was suspended for five years.[75] The agreement came on the condition that Whitewater prosecutors would not pursue federal perjury charges against him.[76] Clinton was suspended by the Supreme Court in October 2001, and, facing disbarment from that court, Clinton resigned from the Supreme Court bar in November.[77]

The billboard is in line with the long history of political cartoons in the US. IMHO the four concepts denote the criticism of Obama's handling of the war on terrorism, connections to Chicago's political machine, the failure to secure the Mexican border, and his position on "don't ask, don't tell". As such, intellectual dishonesty does not apply as issues have been raised in all these areas but the "tastefulness" is always a matter of personal perspective.



I think the intellectual dishonesty pertains to the ingenuous implication that any of those things can be laid exclusively at the feet of OBama and democrats

none of those issues(if one believes they are issues) just popped up under this president, and in fact the border issue is media created because we actually have fewer entries and more patrol there than in the past


Just so you know, your comment about "lain exclusively at the feet of Obama" when the billboard neither says nor implies any such thing, would be a textbook case of intellectual dishonesty. Merely implying that a connection exists, as in the cartoon, is accurate.

Definition: intellectual dishonesty

* the advocacy of a position which the advocate knows or believes to be false or misleading
* the advocacy of a position which the advocate does not know to be true, and has not performed rigorous due diligence to ensure the truthfulness of the position
* the conscious omission of aspects of the truth known or believed to be relevant in the particular context.
