In this picture you see what seems to be a burlesque show. The lady or should i say "man" is only showing his leg so far and the donkey in the crowd seems to be enjoying the show. The man has a Obamacare tattoo on him with a skull and crossbone. He is fat, hairy, and extremly disgusting.
I happen to agree with he political cartoon. In the Obamacare cartoon, Ericallie evokes the uncertainty of the health care law through the way in which the bulesque man looks, the lack of knowledge the audience has watching the show and though only showing half the mans leg to the crowd. Clearly the disgsting burlesque man represents the Obamacare law by the tattoo on his arm. By him only showing his leg the crowd thinks he looks actually decent when in reality overwhelmingly repulsive. This represents how people only knowng half of the Obamacare law is blindsided by the truth behind it, that is not spoke of. For instance the little details like Congress expressly did not put a severability clause in the legislation.
