Australian cartoonist banned for satirizing Leftist
Pickering satirizes everyone, Left or Right, but a toon of Australia's female PM showing her with a strap-on dildo was too much
Cartoonist Larry Pickering has been banned from Facebook over a lewd drawing of the Prime Minister. Pickering, who shot to prominence as a cartoonist for several newspapers, told Facebook fans he couldn't post for three days.
The source of the grief is a cartoon, still live on his blog, featuring a naked Julia Gillard talking about the carbon tax.
In the snap, Gillard is pictured bending over and holding the hand of a much smaller Penny Wong, and telling punters: "You'll wake up on July 1st and nothing will have changed."
The couple, trying to escape the towering PM, says: "Mmm... not even the f---ing temperature... come on dear."

The dildo is not gratuitous. It is presumably meant to symbolize how she is raping Australia with her carbon tax, which comes into force on July 1

I think facebook has some terms of use that involve sexually explicit material. I doubt it is the message so much as the blatant nudity.
