This cartoon is more than just about Elmer Fudd troturing ants. If you look closer, you will see that it is actually an assault against Sen. Joe McCarthy and his policies. I would take up way too much space describing it here. I can just urge you to re-analyse it the next chance you have of seeing it. You will be amazed. Friz Freleng is definitely the MASTER!
