There's an ink stain on Jerry Holbert's résumé after the veteran editorial cartoonist for the Boston Herald made a reference featuring President Obama that's been decried as racist.
The cartoon — "White House invader got farther than originally thought" — shows Obama brushing his teeth in a White House bathroom while an intruder bathes in the tub behind him. The man says: "Have you tried the new watermelon flavored toothpaste?"
Angry posters on social media derided the watermelon remark as racist.

So does the watermelon joke apply to the black half of his ass, or the white half?

Since Obama was first crowned this PC type crap has mushroomed to ever higher levels..
Now in his second term we have students protesting teaching true history, jihadists beheading innocent people in our nation and most of the world laughing at us because of the bammaboy's socialist/Islamist/globalistic policies..
We are in the drain just not flushed down -- at least not yet...

True Americans , a great many see al of this and know what is coming..

The lemmings and appeasers see nothing. They are too cowardly and/or blinded IMHO . -Tyr

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Pernicious again.

Say the word WATERMELON anywhere near Obama, and you are called a racist.

Say the word TERRORIST, and see who calls from the DHS, or IRS.
