Is the second actually pro-Hillary, or is it supposed to be an anti-Jewish joke?

It struck me as anti-Benghazi shouter. I thought it funny, in fact.

First one? Not so funny. Silly, even.

Giving us such context in the OP is helpful, BTW.

You have "first" and "second" reversed.

Also,
I think the secretary of defence refused to allow anyone nearby to help those poor people.
You think incorrectly. You believe a blatant lie. NEXT?

This cartoon seems to be depicting the issue of Benghazi as dead and buried, which it is, or should be. In case you're not clear on why that is, op, I suggest you educate yourself:

For someone who claims four degrees, you have an abysmal grasp of spelling, grammar, and punctuation. As well, you use a number of words in ways where, well, those words don't fit. But your larger meaning is generally graspable, even if we have to substitute appropriate words where you're using inappropriate ones incorrectly.

Is this part of your "message"? Are you attempting to suggest that people from Alabama can't communicate in English, or are you just suggesting that the Alabama HoR member you're falsely claiming to be is stupid?

Speaking of which: Alvin Holmes, whose name and picture this Livejournal user has appropriated, is a State Representative in Alabama's 78th district. He's 76 years old and it's extraordinarily unlikely he's a semiliterate Benghazi Twoofer who created a livejournal account two days ago for the sole purpose of semiliterately posting Benghazi Twoofer nonsense to this community.

ping [livejournal.com profile] weswilson, we have a clear fraud here. I don't think there's a formal rule against impersonating a state legislator, and his posts have, in fact, involved political cartoons, but just FYI you probably want to keep an eye on this one.

Tbqh, I missed the second one because I was reading on rhe LJ app on my phone. It only displays the beginning of each post and you have to tap to see the rest. When there are multiple  cartoons, the first one displays and there's no way to tell there are more unless you tap. I only figured this out recently, and I have to keep reminding myself to always tap in case there's more.


In this case, seeing both cartoons without any explanation was confusing. Posting cartoons that show different perspectives can be quite  instructive, but a word of explanation would be in order so that its  clear what you're getting at.
