They're teenagers...they don't go to bars. And you don't see cartoons because they're not appropriate. What part of that don't you understand?
But I find this whole exercise funny as hell. The cons are now being all righteous, politically correct advocates for censorship.
You gotta love it!
We are actually calling out the liberal double standards, but hey, keep defending the cartoonist and trying to deflect
Nobody is defending the cartoonist, other than on first amendment grounds. The cartoon is wrong.
Now, will you correct the record and stop being purposely wrong?

Sadly, I don't think you're even capable of delineating what you believe the double-standard here actually is.
Maybe you can prove me wrong?

It would appear to be so.
Are a president's children more important than a citizen's children - no.
Are a president's children subject to being targeted by a lunatic more so than a regular Joe - without doubt. Hence the extra protections.
This one is actually easy.
Nope. This is classic DEM BS. Respond to something no one actually said. 200yrs said CLEARLY "I understand the need for them to be guarded, but that doesn't make them any more important than any other parent's children."
Where did all of this other nonsense about whether they should be guarded come from? Another strawman.

The subject matter of the discussion is
WHETHER CHILDREN OF POLITICIANS ARE FAIR GAME

SHOULD OBAMA'S KIDS BE GUARDED
An EXAMPLE, which was not being argued, was used to show an acceptable example of how children of politicians can be fair game. Moreover, no where in that EXAMPLE does it say that Obama's kids should not have armed guards.
I thought people here were a bit more EDUCATED and could understand the difference between an argument and an example.
Yes, but don't use a debunked load of crap as your example then. All I did was point that out. But of course...everyone had to jump on that instead of realizing what it was. I thought people here were a bit more...oh, screw it...

You really like to deflect and reach with that water,huh? I've got some time, so I'll play...
First, it is TRUE that Obama's daughters were protected in school by armed guards. While they were in school, they had Secret Service protection guarding them and they were armed. Duh!!!
Second, again that statement was not the argument I was making (as this thread is about involving politicians' kids and family in media critiques)...but, maybe I should write that in crayon and you'll get it. But regardless, if you want to be dense and silly...I said, "saying Obama is okay with his daughters being able to attend school with armed guards, but your child cannot is fair game". The article you posted has nothing to do with my statement. READING IS FUNDAMENTAL. As stated above, they are able to attend with armed guards...that is ACCURATE. I never said who provided them and I never said anything about other students at the school. I know you wanted that to be the case, but, I guess plain English is difficult for you to understand.
You really should stop embarrassing yourself trying to carry all of that water.

Yeah if that were Obama's daughters as monkey's there would have been folks closing down the Post. Again what is it with Liberal media thinking its ok to make Republicans or their families look like monkeys. They did it with Bush too. Sick Fvcks ought to be fired.
Do we really have to explain to you in 2015 that monkeys are used as derogatory caricatures for black people?
Cruz's girls aren't black.
Geez.
And NO, I'M NOT DEFENDING THE CARTOON.
Really, Duh ! It still is derogatory to make anyone look like a monkey , especially a kid and no I didn't assume that you weren't offended by it either.
I'm pointing out that the Media needs to stop attacks on candidates Kids no matter the race. And which They are also of Hispanic decent and not just of the so called White race that the Left wing media has said is unprotected from ridicule. The PC stuff is one of the reasons there is such a backlash arising in this country and it will only grow stronger .
