[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 886344, member: 52972"] It has nothing to do with the intent of the author, it is how it is perceived by others. The photo is disrespectful towards the President and plays on typical racial stereotypes. Not any different than depicting any black person eating fried chicken or watermellon (another common stereotype for blacks) The author's use of the words "Obama Care" were sufficient to make his point. IMO superimposing Obama's face on the photo of witch doctor crossed over that fine line from political satire to a racial insult. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
