you cannot possibly justify a comment like this one:
"of course it's a bummer that they slashed my husband's throat, but the worst was having to watch the olympics alone."
even in a cartoon, by saying "oh, that's how he is normally." just because the cartoonist was always borderline offensive doesn't take away that said comment was made in bad taste. horrible taste, in my opinion.
the rest of the cartoon was not specific enough to seriously bother me, but that box was. why? because it's very evident who the cartoonist is referring to. you can't tell me that there is any doubt in your mind there, really.
the bits about money keeping the woman warm and the whole tie thing, yes, i agree that those were in bad taste, but at least they weren't specific enough to suggest that a single person said those things.
