Digusting cartoon of Ted Rall's portrays Malia as a man with dreads.
Edited on Mon Jan-18-10 09:38 PM by SemiCharmedQuark
From You Tube:

Notice how he portrays Malia (a little girl of ELEVEN) as a man with long hair. As I said elsewhere, I've been through with him since his "I miss George Bush" screed. But really...attacking children now, Rall?



People have legitimate disagreements, but here Rall has ventured further into the territory of straight up asshole. I saw this and I just saw red. I don't mean to drag shit into this forum, but I wanted to express my frustration without his assy cartoon being given a "K and R!".

2. Who would have thought he'd stoop so low as to attack an 11 year old girl though?

3. What am I missing?
Does he have a point?

And, yes, from rall's moronic history..I wouldn't put anything past him.

4. It's a video about how HCR sucks.
Fine.

But he went out of his way to attack Malia in the same breath-presumably for shits and giggles.

6. Imv, this just exposes
him as not having any credibility at all.

That's what I meant..what was the point of attacking Malia in this way? Or is it not suppose to make sense?

9. Because he is a bully looking for cheap laughs.

He is a poor cartoonist. His females are always given earrings and long hair to define them as female. But he didn't even try here. And why bring Malia into this in the first place?

5. I alerted on that garbage...don't know why, but I did. I guess it's
Edited on Mon Jan-18-10 09:52 PM by firedupdem
okay to post this kind of garbage on this site. I've alerted on a bunch of other stuff that clearly breaks DU rules and it still sits. Guess they are super busy or the rules have changed.

I unrecc'd it as well.

8. Nonono, don't do that. I purposely did not link to anything because I don't want this to be a rally
the troops thread.

This is not a DU thing, this is a Ted Rall thing. If you want to express your disgust, rate it on You Tube.

11. I don't belong to youtube.
and I didn't think you posted a rally the troop thread. It just makes me mad when people target children and that is why I was thinking about going to look for it. Don't know if I will or not.

12. But don't blame them Martha is losing
I have no words. Other than yes, putting Malia in there was beyond disgusting.

And I don't even support an insurance mandate, but the teabaggers couldn't have done more damage than that video.
