Hi! This sense of humor made me sick to my stomach!
Washington Post runs Despicable Cartoon.

I'm appalled that the Washington Post would actually run that cartoon depicting a wounded soldier in that context. They showed no decency or respect for the very soldiers who have been wounded ensuring their Freedom of the Press. Freedom of the Press surely comes with some responsibility. The responsibility not to ridicule or hurt our brave soldiers who have been wounded. As a veterans we are well aware of the hurt the WAPO has caused to our fellow veterans by publishing this cartoon. We should all agree with the Joint Chiefs of Staff, that the WAPO's "callous depiction" cannot go unanswered. I am taking steps to cancel my subscription to the Washington Post. I hope others do as well.
Those who do not have subscriptions, I urge you to contact Washington Post commercial sponsors (some noted on their web site such as Capital One and Vonage, etc) that the Post's depiction of our soldiers in this cartoon is unacceptable and that action must be taken to let them know about our disgust.
It is time for action in our Support for the Troops! O. P. Ditch
