RALL IS PULLED

You cannot find Ted Rall’s typically disgusting cartoon about Pat Tillman on the MSNBC/Slate page it was once found on. Here’s what the page now displays and the previous cartoons don’t show it now either. Did someone pull it? Long ago, I said I could see no reason why any serious newspaper or magazine or website would want to publish Rall’s poison. I stand by that view. But I’m particularly struck by how someone like Tillman would offend Rall so much. Tillman was a true patriot, a quiet hero, an American to his core: of course Rall had to smear him. Tillman represents all that the far left hates about America, and fears might be true.
