This political cartoon has incensed the far-left side of the blogsphere for an entire week now. Read the post and the comments (up to 1334 at present); you'd think these twerps from Pandagon &c. had themselves been personally raped.
This is allegory, satire, hard-hitting visual commentary, metaphor; there's no reason for the OUTRAGE~!!!11!1!1!!!. The Left realizes that this analogy is spot-on. They've no real recourse except to fling poo.
Get over it, 'tards.
Oh, here's a nice poem...
Tom Woodard, “The Rape of Liberty“.For the sake of art. Art, I say! You can’t be offended~!
The Rape of Liberty
(A Warning)
Ye vile, ignorant rabble, espousing hate,
Fast marching upon Freedom’s gate,
Shouting down those who would oppose,
Accusing false treason to all their foes,
Minds all closed as great steel traps,
Mobs like wild dogs howl wretched yaps,
Frenzied, they tear at the Sacred Gates,
Fires of Hell at home upon their grates.
Tolerance lies dead at heathens’ feet,
Beaten and crushed in darkened street.
And the mob cries lewdly at fair Liberty,
Leering lustfully at her maiden beauty,
Before they lunge, groping and tearing,
At her unsoiled gown, craven, jeering,
Pulling her rudely to the filthy ground,
As others, drooling, gather tightly round,
There rape her, virgin, in violent rage,
Like wild beasts upon the sideshow stage;
Lady Liberty, bleeding, bruised, rises -
But Liberty this ignorant crowd despises,
And turning upon her again and again,
They complete their bloody, raging sin,
Striking, stabbing ‘til breathes no more,
Lady Liberty upon this darkened shore.
Now the State, all-powerful, their faith,
Their idol-god, ungodly, steals her place,
And tramples all beneath its brutal heel,
Meeting patriotic resistance with steel,
Destroying all who refuse prostrate bow,
Not a voice to be heard for liberty now.
Pray we who loved her, and love her still,
For Liberty’s resurrection on shining hill,
Where once the peoples of all the lands,
Strove to plant feet in democracy’s sands,
For chance at life yet to them unknown,
Guided with Liberty’s torch-light shown.
Oh, may she rise from beleaguered tomb!
Will Freedom again for America bloom?
Oh, may we strive to stoke sacred flame,
‘Til Liberty rises, resurrected, yet again!
Hold to hope, ye lovers of democracy,
And never to the State willing vassals be!
