I saw a political cartoon in the T-FP last week that left me scratching my head a little.
It had a depiction of an Obama campaign button, but instead of Obama, it said "Robin Hood."
It also showed a depiction of a McCain button that said "Sheriff of Nottingham."
I assume this was a pro-Obama cartoon, but I think the message came across wrong...
Motives aside, didn't Robin Hood STEAL from the rich?
