I know I’m always taken aback when I see people post pictures of monkeys and say it’s Michelle Obama.
____________
Like they did with Bush for 8 years? Google Bush monkey, Bush chimpy. She does have an impish look and so do some whites. It’s a look around the mouth and has nothing to do with race unless you choose to view it that way. One of my friends has blonde hair, blue eyes but on her fathers side of the family that monkey mouth is a dominant feature. Her kids are now 12 and 15 and the other day she said that thank goodness they didn’t get than monkey mouth. When she said it, the thought of a black person never crossed my mind. This calling everything racist is STUPID.

I do not understand the "logic" of, since they do it, no matter how bad it is, it's OK if we do it.

Is this really the way you live your life, mojitojoe? Trying to be as bad as the worst person you see?

There's a big piece of the puzzle missing here too.........there is a history of racist creeps calling blacks monkeys, which changes the whole argument.

As far as I'm concerned any reference to Michelle as any form of ape is beyond the pale. And references to their girls this way is vile.

Did you see the story today that in Germany, they had named one of their new monkeys “obama” in honor of the President, but then they were told it was racist so they changed the name?
