Priggee ‘Toon ‘Highly Offends’ Most

I forgot to mention in my HBO Poll results roundup this morning (until long after today's question was posted) that most Berry Pickers were 'highly offended' by the cartoon by former SR cartoonist Milt Priggee, depicting Tea Partiers around a hanging tree marked "health care reform" as bigots. 175 of 308 (57%) said they were "highly offended." 60 of 303 (19%) considered the cartoon as "a bit over the top." 59 of 308 (19%) said that the cartoon was dead one. You can see the cartoon for yourself again here.
