NY Post Defends Cartoon, Slams Al Sharpton
Here’s the full statement by Col Allan, editor-in-chief of the Post:
“The cartoon is a clear parody of a current news event, to wit the shooting of a violent chimpanzee in Connecticut. It broadly mocks Washington’s efforts to revive the economy. Again, Al Sharpton reveals himself as nothing more than a publicity opportunist.”

The Wall Street Journal???
Oh, how the mighty have fallen…
Sic Transit Gloria Mundi
“Oh, how the mighty have fallen…”Sic Transit Gloria MundiOk, I know my latin quote means “Gloria is sick and won’t be back til monday”but it looks swishier than your english quote. :DHow are the LAWNS in California doing? We discussed that, but if things change and the state budget is still unbalanced call me and I’ll call Arnie and remind him what he said about taxes when he was running for King there :up:
Thousands of state employees are getting fired.He really IS The Terminator!
btw… I absolutely love dropping Latin quotes!(tell Gloria I hope she feels better soon…) :p
Gloria never knew her latinbut the quote fit’s Gloria’s pattern.On Friday she had called in sickand told her latin boss named Neekthe latin line and he had said.”esta malo? – stay in bed”.She went bowling on the Sunday,met her friends and had a funday.”Gloria?”, said Tracy Trix,”it’s work tomorrow – we say nix!
Let’s all meet at Sally Soo’s,
scoff some ice cream, drink some booze!
and she will call your boss and say
you won’t be in until Tuesday”But Gloria had stayed at school until Grade 4 and was no fool.She knew her boss would never fallfor that old line – it wasn’t cool.So Gloria went back to workon Monday and that pleased the jerk.:D(c) Lokutus Prime
