Mike Peters' cartoon: Funny or disrespectful?

Mike Peters' July 29 cartoon is the funniest that I've seen this year.

Re Mike Peters' July 29 cartoon: Three honorable men are depicted as ugly toads at a bar: Henry Gates, a respectable professor, Barack Obama, our president, and James Crowley, a police officer helping to eradicate profiling. Seems Peters hasn't learned the meaning of the word respect.
