This is from Dark Knight Returns, which is probably the exemplary work for Batman's political message.
Most or at least many Batman fans have a love-hate relationship with TDKR. Not that it disproves your point. I think its an enjoyable story but its outdated and has some really shitty aspects to it.
I think a lot of Frank Miller's subsequent work, and the whole "dark age of comics" that TDKR spawned has soured people on the original.
