AMERICAblog: Because a great nation deserves the truth: "
President of cartoonist association blasts Joint Chiefs
by John in DC - 2/02/2006 10:44:00 PM

From E&P:

'They should be as concerned with the soldiers in the field as they are with a cartoon in The Washington Post,' said Bennett, president of the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists (AAEC), when reached Thursday by E&P. 'Maybe they should provide the body armor soldiers need to help avoid the sort of injury shown in the cartoon.'

'It appears they [the Joint Chiefs] interpret cartoons as accurately as they do pre-war intelligence,' Bennett said. The Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist for The Christian Science Monitor added: 'It was a tough cartoon on [Defense Secretary Donald] Rumsfeld, but he certainly deserves tough cartoons.'

Snap, snap!"
