RE: E-Mail Compares First Lady to Tarzan's Cheeta
Because someone resembles a picture, does not make that comparison racist. If an asian woman looks like Connie Chung, and you call her Connie Chung, is that racist? If a white dude looks like Harrison Ford, and you refer to him as such, is that racist? Outright calling a black person a monkey, that is derogatory and offensive, and yes a bit racist. Saying MObama looks like a chimp in that picture is not racist, because well...she resembles the chimp in that picture, just like Jay Z looks like a camel in that picture. Just like Bush looked like a monkey in that one picture.

Agreed. Are you going to leave on your own accord or do we have to kick your ass out?*
Race is the first thing that pops into your head? Again, I contend that's the easiest way to identify a true racist.
* Although you haven't made one single post that backs up your claim to being a Republican. Not that anyone here believes it.

It's been my party a lot longer than it's been yours, and it will still be my party long after we've driven out the ignorant, racist, big government types.
As for all the pictures of camels and horses and such, it's not the same. There's a racial history with the monkey/gorilla/chimpanzee comparisons. It's unbelievable that anyone would defend such trash. It's also unbelievable that more people won't condemn it.

If you say so, great-grandpa . I despise the Democrat party. Last thing I'm going to do is claim to be one.

You seem to be the only one here with a race problem. Turn of the computer and TV, sit in a quite place, and think about it. You racists need to stop deflecting by pointing at others.

That's only because people like you don't have a problem with racists. People like you make me sick. You're pure trash. Don't ever claim to be a Republican. We don't want gutter filth like you, nor do we want all those who stay quiet instead of pointing out trash like you.

That sure seems like a pathetic answer. One a person gives when they realize they can't answer.
BTW, I think John Elway looks like a friggin' horseface. I'm pretty sure insults cross all sorts of boundaries.

GW, it is apparent from your rant that you do not know what racism is. But you got plenty of white guilt.

Why would my days here be numbered? Do you think you're going to run me off? I've been putting up with your type in my party for three decades. I'm still here. I'll still be here when you're gone.
Hey, where did your juvenile signature go?

I don't have the ability to run anyone off and always come down on the side of never banning anyone and let fools spout-off anything they like. Alas, I don't run any websites and most that I have posted on eventually ban fools.
If you (claim) have only been in the party 3 decades, feel free to edit your above post about it being your party a lot longer than mine, jr.
As for my sig, I have the same question. Anyone know?

You've misconstrued my words. I said that I've been putting up with people like you for about three decades. That's about when the mindless, reactionaries started getting a real foothold in the party.

Sock puppets? Isn't that what the Discovery Institute uses in their educational lectures?
