The new McCarthyism Cartoon


The New McCarthyism by ~davidbdr on deviantART

Since a histrionic article about Barack Obama's childhood friendship with the African-American, Communist? poet and journalist, Frank Marshall Davis [link] appeared on the vile AIM (Accuracy In Media) website, [link] the guilt by association charge of being either a Marxist or socialist has been repeated ad nauseum by the Right-Wing hacks of the blogosphere about Obama. Apparently, Obama is a secret Commie mole working for the Communist Party USA to destroy this shining gem of Democracy into a Red gulag. The whole idea would be laughable if it were not for the fact that a large percentage of the US voting public are simpletons with no grasp of history or the reality of their own country. This BS is only going to become more ridiculous as the Right attempt to scuttle Obama's presidential chances. They really fear his intelligence and masterful oratory skills. I can't wait to see the "debates between Obama and McCain. I predict McCain will be obliterated.

Soviet political cartoonist Yefimov dies at 108

REUTERS Yefimov 'survived not because of Stalin's generosity of soul, but because his talents as a cartoonist' Wed Oct 1, 4:38 PM ET MOSCOW - Celebrated political cartoonist Boris Yefimov, who drew brutally satirical images of the Soviet Union's foes in the service of Josef Stalin, died Wednesday. He was 108. Yefimov's death was given wide coverage on Russian state television. No cause was given. His cartoons spanned virtually the entire history of the communist state, from shortly after the 1917 revolution to the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991. Among his most memorable drawings was one showing a wretched-looking Hitler, who is said to have ordered Yefimov shot if the Nazis captured Moscow in World War II. Instead, Yefimov was sent after the war to the Nuremburg trials to draw the Nazis as they faced justice. Yefimov also turned his pen against the United States. His Cold War drawings po...
