That'll almost be like some sort of strange porn to you, I know, but I just thought you might want to come back closer to reality. Thanks.

(Did you know he eats cats, he's half monkey, he looks like the kid on Mad magazine, has a Hitler mustache, kisses foreign leaders, smacks volleyball players -women- a****, eats babies....)
Is Bush African American in your world? Whose reality are you taking about?

What does it matter how much melanin he has in his skin? The insult in calling someone a monkey is that you're trying to convey that they are lower than human-like, ape-like, not evolved.

Let me guess - you are about as African American as Bush.

To pretend that you do not understand that there is a difference between mocking someone as a primate that is, or is not an African American is either insincere or just intensely thick-skulled. I'll leave it for you to decide.

He's Hawaiian-American, you birther. Also, he happens to be half-white, and I just want you to know that that's very insensitive to his multiculturalism.

You think not everyone is considered equal, so based on that the SAME exact insult against 2 different people, it is considered worse for one than the other?

An insult is an insult. I don't care if your brown, red, yellow, white or chartreuse.

And no, MY ancestors did not come down from the caucuses mountains.

Stop trying to interpret my words. You are not fit to debate this subject if you really think insults are universal. If you were not Asian, would you be insulted if someone pulled the sides of their eyes out a la Miley Cyrus?

Where are the "caucuses" mountains? I'm not familiar with them - are they anywhere near the Caucasus Mountains?

I really don't care where you're from buddy - we're all Americans here. Nice to see you and your friend trying to tag team me with your tired and incorrect defense of using an ape to mock an African American. It just helps the rest of us see you for who you are.

So he's not African American after all?

And how did you gather that I was a "birther"? Maybe you should be BigJoke, not BigJon.

Like to see the pictures of Bush as Hitler?

Liberals were behind those as too, and there is definitely a history.
And we have also seen pictures as Obama as Hitler.

Anyone who depicts either one as Hitler obviously has massive screws loose and is crossing the line, its wrong period.

However certain things have a certain history, calling a white guy a chimp has no history behind it, calling a black guy a chimp has a major racist history behind it.

Not to mention quite a difference exists between what some nutball in the either side draws or compares and what actual party officials are doing.

Obama supporters use the race card to deflect any negative comment of their guy. What kind of critique of Obama do you accept as a commentary on his skills and abilities, rather than his race?

The person that created or sent the E-mail is guilty of poor taste, and poor judgement as an official in the local GOP. It reflects poorly on her maturity, and by association, on the party she represents. I can see her loosing her position over it. Racist? I don't see it. I would be far more concerned if Davenport was on a government payroll. In that case, respect for the office of the president, is more of an issue.

Both sides need to clean up their acts and distance themselves of people like this. Adults need to take charge.

The reason a difference exists is because a chimp has a racist history regarding blacks, it does not have a racist history regarding whites. Why is this so hard to comprehend?

Because it's all in your mind....the rest of us don't think of black people as monkeys. Most of us simply think of monkeys as less bright than human beings and incapable of deep, complex thought. Man, you need help!
