Okay Tinsley, let's think about this. Why would different groups of people have different tastes in recreation? There are two possible answers: either your skin color directly affects how much you like camping, or people are socialized differently according to their skin color. You seem to reject the latter, but the former is absolutely ridiculous. The real question to ask after panel 3 is "but why do different groups of people have different tastes in recreation? What makes camping less attractive to black people than to white people? How do social pressures and the environment in which one is raised affect one's opinions and tastes later in life?" But no, to Tinsley, that's the be-all end-all of the situation. Different groups of people have different tastes in recreation. No need to think about it any deeper than that.

If you ever admit that anything has a cause other than lots of people making entirely free and independent decisions, then it makes it just a little bit harder to admit that poverty is entirely due to people deciding to be too lazy to be rich and then o boy do the floodgates open

Well I mean, if different groups have different tastes, isn't that... isn't that a result of society's influence? I mean aren't you proving your own point? Unless you're trying to argue that the dislike of camping is genetically ingrained?? fake edit: beaten "It's not important what happened, or why, or how it affected relations, or the problems it creates, or how it does or doesn't line up with the policies Trump claims to have. Context, especially, does not matter -- neither for this president's actions, nor those of the last. What REALLY matters is I can stick it to "Obama's Legacy"." What's up with this loving obsession over "Obama's Legacy"? McCoy, Ramirez, Branco, and a few others have been harping on it literally since the election. Do they just want to scrub any trace of Obama from the history books, or are they that intent on pissing on the idea of him? Or both?

Each and every one of them is a massive racist and Obama was the first black president, of course they want to erase him from history and piss on everything he ever did. They'll be ranting about Obama on their death beds.

Out of all the flaws they could project onto Obama's Legacy in the era of Trump, they go with vanity.

Its the "attack them where you are weak" strategy, which is meant to preempt attacks on their own weak points. If they keep projecting all of Trump's flaws on Obama or Hillary Clinton or whoever else, they figure they'll be able to go for the "both sides are equally bad" defense when Trump is attacked. It's extremely hypocritical, like everything else the conservatives do, but it's effective because the medias are too dumb to see through it.

It's more than that, because he's been complaining about Obama's vanity and self-centeredness since long before Trump was elected, or even running. Heck, just look at his 'I <3 Me' cups, and that's not the only one. He just really hates that Obama did things, and sometimes people remember them as good things to have done.

My favorite thing about all the "Strong Trump actually attacked Syria unlike weakling Obama" is that after Obama used military action in Lybia the republicans freaked out about him not going for congressional approval for the action. So Obama went to congress looking for approval for military action in Syria but Republicans refused to give it to him. Now they're all clapping as Trump takes military action against Syria without congressional approval

The 'I <3 Me' cup, the self-admiration... The whole thing with portraying Obama as vain and self-centered is because these people are racists, they see a black person aspiring to or achieving something impressive and instantly they jump to the conclusion that they are vain and self-centered because how dare a black person achieve anything? To them a black person doing anything other than living in a ghetto is rising above their station. To them Obama becoming President was morally wrong, McCain and Romney should have won by default regardless of the voters will because a black person becoming president is wrong.

They can't understand why anyone would want to be president, so they project their own negative motivators- vanity, pride and parasitic need for recognition (which they have because they do art [source: I do art]) onto everyone that they hate.

It was drawn to be absurd. But if you want an interpretation: the Democratic rear end has come with an empty jar of ethanol and wants to use the Republican Elephant's grain (see inbox) to make more, possibly to use as a biofuel to replace petroleum. The Republican Elephant, however, has other plans: instead of ethanol, he's churning out lies and curses because it is an election year. Meanwhile, he's also turning profits into ashes and smoke by upholding the Cuban embargo. This makes sense of everything except the "forestry" and "steel" labels.

I'm not going to say that right wing cartoonists (mainly Lester, McCoy and Ramirez) are racist because they always want to poo poo on Obama's legacy. I'm sure there's a racial aspect, but I think it's more that their current president is realllly unpopular and even people in his party hate em (although they'll go along with him because he mostly gives what the party wants). So it's a lot easier to make fun of Obama's legacy being destroyed than to prop Trump up as an actual good human being like Branco and Garrison do.
