Chicago Sun-Times Runs Rush as Klansman Cartoon

The state-run media continues to smear conservative Rush Limbaugh…
The Chicago Sun-Times ran this La Cucaracha Rush the Klansman cartoon strip today:
sun times klan
Not funny.
And not true.

But, Rush is a powerful conservative so they have to destroy him any way they can.

More… Jamie Allman has the pathetic correction by Rick Sanchez for spreading the smears against Rush Limbaugh.

Here’s what I found when I googled La Cucaracha:

About La Cucaracha

La Cucaracha is a unique strip that provides a view of the world through the sharp, satiric lens of its young Latino characters and the fertile mind of acclaimed creator Lalo Alcaraz. Growing up on the U.S./Mexico border gave Lalo a dual outlook on life. He’s not “Mexican” enough for his relatives in Mexico and not “American” enough for some in the U.S.A. It’s this double-edged Spanglish attitude that fuels this jalapeño-biting satirical observations in his daily comic strip, La Cucaracha.

This kind of stuff backfires. People with half of a brain get tired of it. Eventually, smart people say . . . “Enough is enough”.

I thought the Democrats were the members of the KKK, and who did the KKK vote for this past election? Obama!!!

Dear Rush:

Cease & Desist letter to paper and cartoonist.

Threat of further legal action.

Needed right the hell now.

Gads what a crummy cartoon for such a crummy paper. Honestly, the only thing read less than news in the papers these days is the cartoons. Give me the glory days of The Far Side and Calvin and Hobbes!

Funny. A thing like that by a conservative would be called ‘hate speech,’ as well as ‘unfunny.’

I didn’t know that paper exists.

I subscribe to the Wall Street Journal and Barrons.

Then, I get my news from FOX and the net.

Any time I see Commie News Net and the other state propaganda organs, I cringe at the stupidity.

The onliest species of sub-human nucklehead more stupid than the congressman is the liberal propaga-journalist.

The Chicago Sun Times clearly has a very poor editorial policy.

I wonder what the search results of the words ‘falling revenue at chicago sun times’ would be?

La Cucaracha means the cockroach. And that is enough for you unfamiliar to discern the concerns of the ‘artiste’.

I am a Mexican by birth, gringo by blood and live in a border state. I identified La Cucaracha as extremely racist when they put it for a time in the local fishwrapper.

I’m neither a Rush fan or detractor, but the comic just isn’t funny. It wouldn’t even be funny if Rush was in the klan. It’s just stupid. No wonder newspapers are going down the hole.

It’s hardly funny however I don’t think that much should be made of it by conservatives. Ignoring is much more effective.

And in Sports. Democrat Senator Robert Byrd is trying to buy a stake in an NFL franchise.And if the deal goes through Byrd hopes to change the name of the team to The St Louis Klans.

Wonder if the Chicago Sun Times would print a truthful cartoon if Byrd actually did try to buy into a NFL team.

Nope. Doesn’t work. Rush would be the first one to tell ya, that to be funny, your humor (or drawings) depend on telling ‘a’ truth. Or ‘the truth.’ Or even 1 truth.

Meanwhile, I purposely went and turned Rush on this morning. And, much to my surprise he didn’t talk about the Ram’s. He talked about Obama’s new (old) drug politicies. Where there will still be Federal busts of ‘legalized’ dope growers and joints; because it’s a money maker for the drug en-farce-ment agency.

Obama pays good money for his advice. Well, wasn’t hitler’s minions, with him in the bunker, also salaried?

In other words the left is trying to swing this country into communism. And, they are failing. There isn’t a lever long enough that would work this trick. While popularity does sway some to lose their entrenched seating when elections roll around.

Up ahead? District # 10 in San Francisco actually has the potential of filling a vacant House seat with a republican. That means we may all see Nancy Pelosi frozen, and gone to hell, on Wednesday morning, November 4th. There’s nothing like a will to vote, to bring out more voters, even in election cycles not known to produce waves. We shall see.

This is why I don’t buy Lefty papers or watch Lefty news shows. I get my news from FoxNews, Right Wing Blogs and Drudge. And I’ll be buying Palin’s book for myself and extra copies for my family.

I’m constantly amazed that people who are so obviously intellectually deficient (i.e.,stupid) can own and publish “news”papers.

Aren’t they smart enough to see the direct correlation between their hard leftist slant and declining readership and ad revenue?
Can’t they look at what’s happening to the dead tree media and realize that people want a little more balance in what they read.

People don’t necessarily demand “hard right” reporting — just a little balance. And if they don’t get it from their local paper, they’re not going to buy it.

I wonder how many people will cancel subscriptions when the government starts giving “bailouts” to papers; thereby making them an official propaganda arm of the obama cabal?

Most of the old papers – as well as the left-leaning TV networks – are ignored now as a source of news and information by all but the hard left minority; and it’ll be even worse when they start taking government money.

The “Saint Louis Klans”? Who wrote that, six-year-old Falcon Henne, a.k.a. Balloon Boy?

Someone got paid for that cartoon. Incredible.

This cartoonist’s work is in my city’s paper. I never cared for it; It was usually race based and non-funny, nor made any good commentary.
Glad I unsubscribed a year ago.

Anyone know if the cartoonist is a member of La Raza?

OMG. This guy’s stuff is pathetically unfunny. I just searched for his other cartoons online, and not one is mildly humorous or leaves the reader with an entertaining message. A certain four-letter word comes to mind: LAME
