They like to keep this whole we are animals thing going. Helps keep planned parenthood solvent

I’m not sure that recognizing a pantomime for eating food is a sign of a shared ancestor.

Huh.

I know every time I want someone to pick my nits I raise my arms.

Maybe there’s something to this.

Perhaps those gestures are the ones most easily learned for the simian and human physiology...

Or perhaps simians can’t raise just their middle fingers... lol

For example, chimpanzees stroke their mouths to request food or raise their arms to request grooming.

And dogs sniff each other's butts as a greeting.
Does that mean Democrats are dogs and not human?

Oh, wait...bad analogy. Never mind.

Personally, I don't like my nits; if I'd been given the option, I would not have picked these nits .

Crap throwing seems to be a common behavior among Democrats.

Sirs, perhaps there are those among you who believe you are descended from a ape. I suppose there may even be those among you who believe that I am descended from a ape. But I challenge the man to step forward who believes that General Robert E. Lee is descended from a ape.
