TWO POLITICAL CARTOON TEXTS

TWO POLITICAL CARTOON TEXTS

#1
NO SCANDALS WITH OBAMA
I just recently heard a person on a news/talk brag that the Obama Administration has not had any scandals. I thought, you have got to be kidding me. But I did not take the time to list all of Obama's scandals. However, I just saw a list, in the form of a joke. While the scandals are not funny, I understand the point of the joke. I could add several more scandals of major moral and spiritual concern, but simply to point out some of the things done by Obama that really bother a large number of Americans, here is a copy of the post I saw. There are some folks who will deny all of these scandals, there are some folks who will deny some of these scandals, there are some folks who have never heard of these scandals.

> Jim: “The IRS targeting conservatives?”
> Bob: “No, the other one.”

> Bob: “THAT’S THE ONE!”

IS IT OR ISN'T IT?
A political cartoon I saw showed five different frames, with Obama responding to five different news blurbs. Actually there could have been many more frames like the first four. Let me share the text with you.

Frame #1
News blurb... Thousands of Yazidis massacred by Isis.
Obama... This is not about religion.

Frame #2
News blurb... Tens of thousands of Christians persecuted by Isis.
Obama... This is not about religion.

Frame #3
News blurb... 5 Jews slaughtered by Isis.
Obama... This is not about religion.

Frame #4
News blurb... 21 Coptic Christians beheaded by Isis.
Obama... This is not about religion.

Frame #5
News blurb... 3 Muslims killed in parking lot dispute.
Obama... THIS IS ABOUT RELIGION.

In fact, in response to the killing of the three Muslims in the parking dispute, Obama said, "No one in the United States of America should ever be targeted because of who they are, what they look like, or how they worship...”

Even though the terrorists are Islamic, they worship the Islamic god, they believe the Islamic scriptures, they kill in the name of Islam, they align with the example of Islamic history, they follow Muhammad and recognize him as their prophet, and even though leading world Muslims recognize the terrorists as Islamic, and even though there are entire Islamic nations which do the same atrocities in the name of Islam, Obama refuses to acknowledge that the terrorists are Muslims.
