Gratuitous, offensive, and entirely legitimate

by Jura Watchmaker, 13 November 2007

Just a few days after King Juan Carlos of Spain told the Caracas Gobshite to shut up, two cartoonists have been fined for slandering the Spanish royal family. A sketch drawn by Guillermo Torres and Manel Fontdevila depicting chinless wonder Crown Prince Felipe rogering his equally chinless wife Princess Letizia in the doggy position was published on the front page of the satirical weekly El Jueves’.

Here’s the offending cartoon…

The speech bubbles read: “Do you realise, if you get pregnant this will be the closest thing I’ve done to work in my whole life.” This is a reference to a government plan that would pay Spanish couples €2,500 for each new baby they had.

    Naturally; it’s the in-breeding.

    I’m surprised Michael Moore isn’t going after them for the cartoon at the side.
