#1 "Cartoons are meant to be taken in a lighter vein but the impression conveyed by this particular cartoon is unacceptable by any standard. Can Americans themselves endure this much insult?"

#3 I was thinking the same thing, Sobiesky. Certainly you don't have to search long to find similar "insults" pointed our way. Thing is, we're like, "whatever".

On the other hand, who is this Garner moron, anyway? What's the point of the cartoon, other than to be patronizing?

#7 So they object to our editorial cartoons, and I object to their citizens beheading innocent American journalists like Danny Pearl. I guess we've got a lot to learn about each other.
