Washington Post Permits Cartoonist to Go After Ted Cruz's Five and Seven Year Old Daughters, Claiming That If They're In an Ad, They're "Fair Game"
Now Pulled
Here they are depicted as monkeys.
Tell me, if Obama's daughters were, hypothetically, in his most famous campaign ad, the 30 minute ad he ran on most networks on the eve of the 2008 election, would they be "fair game" too? Note, this is all entirely hypothetical, I'm sure. But just check out Obama's Most Famous, Costliest Ad from minute 19 to 20. Probably one of the most watched ads of all time. You know what I see there? "Fair game," according to the Washington Post. That's what I see there. Pulled Down, Now With This Bullshit Explanation: "I Didn't Look At It." Right, right, right. I know you looked at it -- you seemed to have required her to write a defense of the cartoon in order to give it "context" and make it acceptable. I am having a lot of trouble believing that a hot piece like this, so controversial the cartoonist had to pre-justify her own stupid doodle with a written explanation, gets past the editors without people taking a look-see. I mean it's a frickin' cartoon. You know -- a scribbling for babies and illiterates. Who doesn't have the time to look at a doodle? Anyway, it's gone, and here's some self-exculpating bullshit, which also seeks to exculpate the cartoonist.He seems to be saying there's a good reason for Ann to think this was an "exception" -- because Cruz' kids were in a ad. Okay, well Obama's kids were also in an ad -- would the liberal Fred Hiatt agree, or at least "understand," why people might think that also serves as a "warranted" "exception" to justify an attack on his kids? Note my point is not to go after Obama's kids. I never go after his kids. I have no reason to do so. But this liberal game of piously claim Democrats' children are completely off-limits, while concocting "warranted exceptions" for Republicans' kids (every Republicans' kids, pretty much -- ask the Bush Twins and Palin Kids), is infuriating beyond my capacity to express.
Editor’s note from Fred Hiatt: It's generally been the policy of our editorial section to leave children out of it. I failed to look at this cartoon before it was published. I understand why Ann thought an exception to the policy was warranted in this case, but I do not agree.

I says, "Oh". And then I sees the WaPo scrunt defending attacking Cruz's kids.

Not so much that the kids are in a political ad. Just that we've been lectured ENDLESSLY by the media about how politicians families are off limits, and that any portraying of Obama in any kind of racial stereotype is BEYOND BAD AND ABSOLUTELY OFF LIMITS.
They just broke both of those rules and think its fine.

Yeah, I don't think she's responding to anyone there, I think that's the initial posting of the cartoon.
Interestingly, the "next story" that the Post hawks at the bottom of the page is 2015 begging to be let go early "while I still have a shred of decency". It's a Tom Toles cartoon. I don't *think* it's a response to the Telnaes.

It's funny because I was just thinking that Cruz might be the one to understand how much the enemy the MFM is, and that they need to be *openly* treated as the opposition, *in detail* with quotes and references and donation figures.
That won't get through to everyone, but it will get through to some. There are moderately intelligent people who are just ignorant.
Hopefully Cruz demands these people explain themselves in public, in detail, and we can either see them cower or expose their hypocrisy.

Remember, some GOP staffer lost her job for tweeting that Obama's girls were inappropriately dressed.
And I blame the GOPe for that. The Left crudely insults the GOP and they never apologize. Or if they do, it's one of those "I'm sorry you were offended" non-apologies.
A Republican insults a Dem and 20 other Republicans rush to a mic to condemn the Republican and grovel and demand resignations.
I hope Cruz doesn't let this pass, the way Dubya ignored insults to his family. The left needs to start getting called on their shit-throwing.

Relative to the employee headcount at GS, that firm probably donated more money to Barack Obama than any other company in America.

I think that is all these people know to do-they never bothered to learn the reason for an apology-to understand that you, personally, caused someone else, personally, pain. That you regret having caused them pain, and you are going to do your darnedest NOT to cause them pain again.
These are the fake apologies that moms require their toddlers to say when they have caused grievance, and need to "learn a lesson." But they never bother to teach them what the lesson is.

Hey, those of you who are better Christians than I am, which isn't a stretch: what's the Bible say about people who bear false witness for purposes of personal advancement, and invoke God's name in the process of doing so?
Because, per recent admissions against interest by David Axelrod, that's precisely what Obama did on the gay marriage issue in 2008.
Obama pretended to be against it for tactical political purposes, and cited his alleged Christian religious faith as grounds for that stance. It was all a sham, according to Axelgrease.

Well, look who they have as parents.
Obama as a father is probably not terrible aside from being a pompous wanker. But being a dad is the one thing he seems like he could maybe not fuck up because, at least in the pictures, he seems to be genuinely happy around his kids.
Moo though? She seems like a bitch all the time. Someone who is never happy and always critical. And the entitlement.
So that results in Hereditary Bitch Face Malia. I see SJWing in her future.
The younger daughter, however, doesn't seem to be afflicted. She looks relatively normal. Maybe she'll write the tell all.

It's so strange to me in part because FenelonSpouse is a school bus driver. and picks up kids of that age. They're all ethnic groups and he has no idea about their politics nor does he care. They've been coming on with bags or chocolates or lots of homemade cookies or other presents to give to the bus driver Some parents took a lot of time. There were little cookies shaped like Santa's hat or boots and the cards have their little scrawls-Thanks from Ojai. The kids are adorable.
This kind of stuff is just evil-demonizing little kids, no matter what letter comes after their parents' name.. If someone came4 after my kid in that way when he was seven I'd want to shove their teeth down their throat. i wouldn't but I;ld feel that way!

They said it so long and so loud and Fox is different from the rest of the media that a lot of people bought it.
And Fox did things now and then to reinforce this view.
We owe Donal Trump a thank you for his revealing Fox's true colors. They're still better than the mfm but they're not conservatives.

It seems that, while the cartoon does not currently appear on the WaPo site ...
... the cartoon DOES appear when the link posts to Facebook.
Yeah, it's offensive ... Cruz in a Santa suit, looking slightly drunk, grinding an organ, while his children are represented by 2 grinning monkeys.

Thanks, brother; I appreciate that. Same to you. I know that holidays are often very difficult after the death of a beloved spouse or other loved one, but I like to think of your wife Barbara in that blessed place where there in no crying or tears or pain and that you will meet her again. I hope some of your other family is nearby and that you will get to see them for the holidays.

Christmas music on the radio is torture. I try, I really do because I like Christmas music. But I Heart Radio is even worse for Christmas music than it is for radio in general. The same versions of the same songs over and over again. You might get lucky and hear "Oh Holy Night" or "Do You Hear What I Hear?" but otherwise its 99% secular songs over and over again. Hey how about Frosty again? Or I know "Simply Having A Wonderful Christmas Time." Ugh *Gun in mouth*

The discount stores all seem to have dollar-store CDs of Bad Christmas Music From The 70s, 80s, and 90s.
One had, once, a song that was literally about kids killing Santa and redistributing the toys to the poor. It was sung by children as well. I pointed it out to staff and they were shocked when they actually listened to the lyrics.
Never found out who did it and I can't seem to find an internet presence, but I didn't memorize the lyrics or anything.

Dear Santa,
I hope this letter finds you well. Please pass my "hello" and Christmas greetings to the elves and the reindeer. I have been a really good sasquatch this year. I'd really like a gift certificate to Great Clips™...
...and a comb.
...and a flea collar
...oh, and a size 22 pair of Puma CrossTrainers™
Love,
Bigfoot

And let's not call them refugees, either; it's offensive. Let's call them undocumented Germans.

Not new, but a Christmas classic.
Funny story about that though. When my husband was in high school he was doing the music for a church production and the CD started skipping when that song played. So it was...
"Mary did you know...Mary did you know...Mary did you know..." Over and over again. He tried to fix it, but the guy who was up doing the scene was apparently sending him death glares.
So now, anytime we hear the song, we can't help but giggle.

Cicero, I'm kinda stuck because at this point I'm pretty much taking a lot of care of my 76-year-old Mom, and she doesn't want to go anywhere.
I have one sister (I've told you about her, she has issues) and bro-in-law, with kids, whose jobs are dependent on staying in SoCal. And my other sister and bro-in-law, the 'sane' ones, have good jobs with a local school district.
However... the 'sane' ones have admitted to me, if they could save the money, they wouldn't mind going to either Montana or Wyoming. And the other sister... she works for Verizon which in SoCal is about to sell off a lot of its assets to Frontier Communications, and she has absolutely *no* idea whether her job will stay in California or not.
So who knows, a move may come sooner than I think.

I swear to Elvis, if I see another fricking ad about how Santa provides
luxury cars with giant bows for Christmas, with happy little
Christmas-esque piano tunes in the background,"
It's ridiculous and I'm tired of them too, but, people do that shit. I used to work at a couple of car dealers. They'd bring the car to the showroom, decorate it, and, (normally) the husband would bring in the wife and surprise her a day or two before.
Wasn't real common, but, it happened.

I saw it Friday. You know the second day. Counting me, three people in the theater. Of course it was just the 2D showing. And it was a last minute additional showing because the previous one sold out and the next one coming up was also almost sold out. And there was a line for the next 3D showing. But hey 3 people so I got my choice of seat. :p

Obama, the Magic Christian, thinks the Muslim call to prayer is the most beautiful sound in the world. Some Arab yodeling in Arabic, really?
Those wacky Christians.
When I was a teenager about a million years ago, our High School choir sang the Xmas part of the Messiah for Christmas.
That sticks with you. More beautiful than Arab yodeling.

Have no idea where they'd go but given their degrees and work experience, they'd gravitate towards Billings or another urban center there. Of course what qualifies as an "urban center" in MT is probably far different and smaller than what I'm used to here in Los Angeles County.
Would I go with them? I've already asked them to make room for me in the trunk of the SUV. :-)

Posted by: chemjeff at December 22, 2015 11:14 PM (uZNvH)
Looking at the Post's website I see digital ads for Wells Fargo, Michael's stores, Fidelity Investments, the city of Charlotte, NC, Jimmy Dean breakfast foods, to name a few.
Sure, digital ads are placed by a network and these companies probably didn't specifically request for their ads to show up on the Post's homepage, but that's irrelevant.
People should go after any company that advertises with the post - intentionally or not. Make this about those companies and their support for racism via the Post. Threaten to start a boycott until they denounce the Post and its racism. Share your outrage on social media and encourage other to do so.
Keep stirring this pot. Keep the outrage against these advertisers going for as many days and weeks as possible.
I work in corporate marketing and I know that one day of a few angry social media posts won't do any good. Several days - or even a week - of angry customers demanding that the company disavow their relationship with the post (or face the wrath of the consumer) will make the CEOs of these companies march into the marketing department and demand that all advertising with the Post end immediately. I've seen it happen for less.

I read this last night and couldn't bring myself to respond then. Like you, this moves me to anger that is beyond fury. I struggle with it, in fact - I should not feel so strongly about a cartoon... and yet I do.
It is proven that one of the key ways propagandists operate is to de-humanize the foe. To get you to believe that they are less-than-human in some way or other, and thus to deny them the sympathy and empathy that is required for peace.
Just remember: in de-humanizing the Cruz kids, the WaPo and all affiliated with it have shown me that it is they - not the Cruz kids - who are not worthy of human sympathy or empathy.
They have begged me to view them as an enemy. I don't know why, but they have.
What the hell is wrong with these people? Have they no decency whatsoever?

I used to work at The Charlotte Observer when Doug Marlette was editorial cartoonist, and the standard rule there was Doug had to show the cartoon to the executive editor in sketch form before he could proceed.
They had good reason for this policy. Doug was a flaming Christian liberal in a flaming Christian conservative state. He would go after Jim Bakker's PTL Club, the death penalty, homophobic Anita Bryant, the dunderheads on the Charlotte School Board, etc. Most of the time, they let him proceed; they simply wanted to know if they could expect rivers of fire to come shooting out of the phones the next day.
What I'm saying is, this editor was either incompetent or incompetent.
