   “2) the use of Dali Bama, as opposed to the Dalai Bama is that I don’t intend to insult the Dalai Lama by comparing him to Obama. So, no, Simpleton fails. Yet again.”

   StewZ, this doesn’t make any sense. If you don’t want to insult the Dalai Lama (I noticed you use the alternate spelling – no “h” for you), why even use the term in the first place? No matter how it is spelled, people are going to make the association anyway, no matter what you intend… But, whatever. This is a 5-day-old editorial cartoon that is still getting comments, now pretty off-topic…

   “Simple Simon - you JUST noticed? Those of some keen powers of observation that you have there. No wonder you are an Obamabot with that attention you have to detail.”

   StewieZ, I read about 20 editorial cartoons on-line each day, and never bothered to read the comments, until today. What I noticed is that you seem to comment a lot across the on-line editorial cartoon spectrum.

   I also notice that you like to categorize and label people in your posts, for whatever reason. “Libtard,” “Obamabot,” “Kos Klown,” “Dhimocrats,” “Herbie the Obama Bug,” and more. Not that your targets are innocent – Simon_Jester and others seem to have no problem slinging labels in their comments to you…

   But, this time it looks like Simon_Jester has a point. Your response quoted above to his pointing out that caliing Barack Obama “Dali Bama” didn’t make sense implies that you intended the analogy all the time, and he was stupid for not noticing it. That doesn’t hold water. Salvador Dali in no way rhymes with Barack Obama, while Dahli Lama has both a rhyming portion and conveys your contempt of people who you feel have anointed him the chosen one.

   Maybe this time you should admit that Simon-Jester might have you here, and add the “h” in the future to your “Dali Bama” label. Perhaps you can borrow the one in “Dhimocrats”?
