Part of Obama’s healthcare plan is that all women should
receive birth control for free. The catholic choir in this cartoon is to
represent the republican party who is against abortion. Notice that all of the
choir members are white older males. They yell to Obama “HELL NO!” because they
are 100% against his healthcare reform. Many republicans tend to lean to a more
conservative point of view. This is being depicted by the choir members all
being implied as white catholic males. On a personal note though, I feel men in
general really shouldn’t have much of a say in regards to this issue given they
cannot become pregnant anyways nor do they have any reason to take birth
control because it has nothing to do with their gender in the first place. In
turn this issue has no first hand impact on them at all.
Good cartoon and visual analysis
