This cartoon puts the issue of race more front and center. As we've seen, the reaction has been explosive. I have defended the cartoon and people have called me racist for that, which I find outrageous. Many Americans (including Obama) are uncomfortable discussing the issue of race and just want to pretend it doesn't exist. Ang: Yes, exactly.

And that the insidious prejudices has been growing in the under belly of America because the average Americans have been tip toeing around the subject, affraid of being perceived a racist? David Remnick was on the Charlie Rose show. He mentioned the Jon Stewart's show. Thanks for the link.

I don't think Muslims like cartoons denigrating their prophet any more than Catholics like the Pope or Jesus being similarly treated. It just upsets people.

I wonder who it was? Hmmmmm, the only person we all know who spends 22.5 hours a day watching TV (I need at least an hour and half for sleep).
