So France decided to ban women wearing Burqas. News to me...
There are now two Eiffel Towers, (because that is how France rolls), but OH NO! The naked slutty one is terrified of the one wearing a Burqa (although if it were accurate, we couldn't see the bitches ankles). The only statement this fishnet-ho cartoon is making is that Burqas are what the enemy wears and an all black wardrobe is, indeed, truly terrifying (you heard me stage crews-you look awful in those black jeans).
What the cartoon fails to acknowledge is 2 major things:
1. France isn't at war with these lovely people and are therefore not scared of international garb. But,
2. They banned Burqas on a womens rights platform and not because of their National Dress Code, which includes berets, mustaches and cigarette extenders.

Davos 2010
alright, this is weird.
As we know, (and for those of you who don't know) Davos is the annual world economic meeting. It is a cow.
For anyone that knows anything about America and Wall St. for that matter, know that if Wall St. were to be represented by any aminal, an giant cow-eating eagle would not be it. Maybe a crippled alley cat, but a giant Eagle, smoking a cigar with what appears to be a faucet coming from it's right eye-No.
So the giant mutated Wall St. Eagle is taking the little starved Davos cow and carrying it away from something-whatever, they are in the mountians. Also, it's nice to note that the cow has also been modified as patches of it's skin have been resewn into squares...

Go Away
Honestly, what a good example of media that is totally one sided and only gives it's citizens the facts that it wants you to hear:
In the West, our news has been that Google is deciding, and they decided a while ago, that they were leaving China. Majorly, this is because China doesn't want Google searches to come up with any Chinese Liberal Media (or some crap like that). Actually, Google said that in addition to that type of censorship, paired with the fact that Google believes that there are internal spies trying to shut it down specifically in China, it doesn't really give them much reason to pour millions of dollars into a project that will bear no fruit.
In Korea, however, Google is hardly used. I think there may be one Google Headquarters in Seoul, but everyone here uses Naver. It returns searches mostly in Korean (even if you search for something in English) and it's kind of BS, only pandering to the Korean population. With Naver, Korean's don't have to worry about spies or some corporation letting the population see something too liberal because Naver is Korean owned and managed. Besides, nothing can sway the conservative hearts of the Korean people. Not even Google.
The cartoon reminds us that China is BIG and STRONG whilst Google and the West in general are WEAK and really PALE.

Haiti AGAIN
I had just finished posting about the cartoon on Osama Bin Laden (and how bad the other Haiti Cartoons were), when I ran across this little gem:
It's the new Monday cartoon. I would say more about it, it's just that I'm so tired of this crap. If you are going to make a statement, either good or bad, then by all means, make a statement. But this...this? This is ignorant and a waste of my time.

War on Wall St.
At first glance, it seems that they finally got it right:

I mean, it's not the BEST cartoon I've seen, but it certainly kicks the crap out of those terrible Haiti cartoons. Anyway, it does seems like an honest portrayal of what is going on, sort of, and it even includes some original thought, (at least Obama isn't flying a plane on Wall Street). But really, two things stick out about this particular cartoon, the first being that Obama is firing torpedos at Wall Street in a desert of what is probably Iraq. Yes-we know the war in Iraq is about money and oil and yes-it does take place in a desert, but shouldn't a President who is trying to end the war be dipicted as someone a little more calm and NOT flying a Bomber in the desert?
The second issue I have with this isn't that the Fat-Cat-Wall-Street-Exec is with Osama Bin Laden. The problem I have is that Osama Bin Laden is levitating and sitting in a meditation position. Really? I figure that in Eastern Asian they might know the different between Buddhism and Islam. Isn't this guy known for being a radical Islamist? WTF.

Haiti Aid
Well well well, the korean newspaper has done it again! Another amazing analytical take on what is happening in Haiti.
So now there are 3 Haitians, and their skin color has been assigned accordingly. Those barefoot, housedress wearing, stiff pigtail having, watery-eyed Haitians are at it again. They are trying to recieve aid, (we finally got it right and sent more than one guy!), but they can't get it fast enough (a statement that has been made in 2 prior cartoons). The aid guy is pouring single grains of rice to the family, who can't seem the get the rice into their mouths fast enough, (those greedy bastards). Even if they situation looks dim, it seems that time is on their side. But I don't know how they will get those water bottles through that little slot.
