Doonesbury's Palin Cartoon Slings Mud At Sarah Palin's Family
The Doonesbury comic strip has created some controversy after a rant about Gov. Sarah Palin in a recent cartoon. The strip makes a brief mention of Sen. John McCain, but primarily takes aim at the Republican's choice for vice president. "Hey, folks! Have you been wondering why Republicans have suddenly stopping talking about 'family values'?", reads the Doonesbury strip. "Could it be because a divorced John McCain chose as his running mate a stay-at-work mom who hid her last unplanned pregnancy." "And who has a pregnant, unwed teenager with a self-described '"******* redneck' of a boyfriend who 'doesn't want kids'... and an ex-brother-in-law who tasered her nephew, and a husband with a DUI who loves his country so much he joined a secessionist party?" "All of which leaves the GOP clinging to one remaining family value -- the shotgun wedding! All previous values are null and void because 'life happens'!" See Doonesbury's Palin cartoon below:
