I've found a few more cartoons on Condoleezza Rice. Nothing particularly racial about these:
Chuck Asay: Rice as new sheriff opens bar-room doors to find State Dept. employees lounging about reading "Peace through Dialogue," playing Kumbaya on piano, holding "101 Jokes about Dick Cheney" book.
Mike Thompson: Rice is bartender at "Bush's Foreign Policy Bunker." Two Blues Bros.-looking men walk in & one asks, "Ah, what kind of politics do you usually have here?" She answers, "Oh, we got both kinds. We got conservative and neoconservative!" Another dig at appointing people who agree with the President.
Adam Zyglis: Bush using Rice as a bullhorn, with caption, "Bush's New Bullhorn." Point: The new Sec. of State will promote the White House's vision.
Meanwhile, here are a few more Powell cartoons. I don't see any racial overtones in them.
J.D. Crowe: Powell in half-panel under "Powell Doctrine" caption holds sign reading "War as a Last Resort," "Overwhelming Force," and "Exit Strategy." Bush, in other half under "Bush Doctrine" caption, holds sign reading "Trade on Powell's Integrity for 4 Years without Heeding His Advice," "Let Him Leave," and "Stock Cabinet with 'Yes' People."
Bob Gorrell: Powell stands holding a megaphone, pointed wrong way and reading "Credibility" on its side, and holding a blue-ribbon paper marked "Iran Nukes." He's saying, "Strange . . . why isn't anybody listening?" Implication: He was wrong about WMDs and therefore has no credibility. Of course, everyone was wrong about WMDs, right and left.
