oh, this'll have you howling with laughter

Apparently Repugnican supporters, not content with habitually insulting and sliming Katrina survivors, are now circulating this ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS piece of wit among themselves:

 
So, attention, Texans! If you get smitten by Hurricane Ike as hard as everyone fervently hopes you won't, be prepared for these wags to start trivializing and ridiculing your plight!

Even more disgusting, the gag is not even original. Samantha Bee of the Daily Show did a similar goof, pretending to be a weather lady tracking Gustav (and Sarah), and she had a diagram almost exactly like this cartoon.

But when Samantha did it, it was funny and smart, not offensive and dumb.

I can't get over how offensive I find this cartoon. What next, y'know, Auschwitz jokes?

When Sam B did it she was mocking the way the media was juggling storm coverage with Sarah coverage. It was funny, even if you lived in the path of the storm. This cartoon is not funny. At all.

It's appalling, not surprising. I'd be equally unsurprised by death camp humor from these goons. Not much difference if you ask me.
