Editorial cartoon made inaccurate comparison

Posted February 20, 2017 12:00 am

I agree with HALF of your Feb. 14, editorial cartoon, which asked "Of Whom Is The White House Gravely Wary?" Choice A on the left was Putin and I agree. On the right was Choice B, a pigtailed toddler girl with a doll and overnight bag.

Uh, every time I see a picture of refugees flooding into a Western country, there are hardly any women, children or elderly. All I see are boatloads and endless streams of young and healthy males. I think the "cartoon" would have been a more realistic choice if it would have been Putin or a mass of undocumented young males. But, then it would not have been anti-Trump, I guess.

Can't we even give the president 90 days to make the choice of who comes into this country? Obama and Carter had it.
