       Funny how comparing republicans to horses is funny.  Comparing
       democrats to monkeys isn't.
       Cue the yeah but post

       I remember huge outrage over a  Obama/ monkey cartoon.
       I guess it's ok to compare Republicans to animals but not
       Democrats.

       I can take a joke just a well, if not better than the next guy.
       It just pi$ses me off when one side can dish it out but then
       whimper like little pu$sies when they get teased.  This pc
       nonsense has gone too far.  The Senate wasting time on the
       Washington Redskins,  the whiners over the monkey cartoon, or
       the phony outrage when the guy who sings "Happy" wore a head
       dress on a magazine cover, a high school skit doing YMCA being
       cancelled because one of them wore a head dress as well  This
       has just gone way to far.

       I'm sure you already know this, but it wasn't that he was a
       democrat, rather the fact he's black, and there is a long,
       derogatory and shameful  history of comparing Blacks to
       primates.
       Making fun of political parties is fair game.  Making fun of
       race is  not.
       I  suppose we could pretend that wasn't really the issue if it
       makes ya'll feel better.

       But no where in that cartoon was race referred to nor implied.
       Race was only brought into it by the race baiters.

       The cartoon featured a black man being compared to an ape. You
       think the author was such a moron they did not know the history
       of that comparison?  That nobody who laughed at it knew?
       Race does not need to be mentioned, it's right there front
       and center in all it's ugly historical context.  Of course you
       believe the problem is with those who point it out.
       Not unfamiliar, we've also been through this with "uppity" and
       "boy.
       But  the minute someone mentions the word "teabagger",  the
       tables turn and suddenly  you "get it".
       Hey, they wear teabags on their hats. Teabaggers.  Nobody said
       anything about male anatomy. Where did anybody mention anything
       about male anatomy?
       Keep the denials and justifications in mind next time you wonder
       why minorities are suspicious of Republicans and/or
       Conservatives.

       There's a pretty clear difference between racist joke and not
       racist joke.  It just seems that many conservatives just can't
       figure that out, or like Snickers, choose  not to notice.
       Here's an example.

       This joke makes fun of the two politicians teeth to a horse when
       they smile.  Not racist.

       This joke compares the two politicians to a pile of crackers,
       which is a slur for white people.  This is a racist joke.

       But dressing up as an Indian just like the 80's video is racist,
       cheering on the Redskins like they have for decades is racist,
       or portraying an inept politician as a monkey which has been
       going on as long as there have been inept politicians. You
       pathetically not racists individuals really are quite pathetic
       to say the least.
       In T S Eliot's award winning play Murder in the Cathedral we
       hear the lines "the last temptation is the greatest treason.  To
       do the right deed for the wrong reason".  You race baiters
       mistake the right deed and assign it the wrong reason.  You
       always assign some nefarious motive where there is none looking
       for phony outrage.  Just a bunch of race baiting #hores, all in
       the name of some made up political correctness.

       Keep drinking that coffee (and something else) and YOU will be
       someone who won't have any teeth to make any jokes about! :(
       The only teeth you should worry about are your own! ;D
