At least Robb has a sense of humor. Of course, he wasn't the one being portrayed as a monkey.

It is a great picture. But what would be even more appropriate would be to have Baker wearing a robe, sandals, and a turban on his head.

Even chimps are too intelligent to have participated with this report.

Typical elitist snob.

Jim Baker's report is not worthy of a post dump ass wipe.

"Lovely," Baker said after gazing over the front page, in which his and Hamilton's faces were superimposed on photos of the bodies of chimpanzees.

"If we are getting attacked by this rag, you know we are doing something right."

What's the matter there, Jim, pissed off that you forgot to make the 80th Commandment, "Shut down any commentator, media outlet or website that dares to even think about criticizing us or any of the above 79 Commandments in this report!"?
