I agree, it is not racial, but it is VERY insulting. As hubby pointed out a good synonym for Neandrathal is Knuckle-dragger. It implies "unevolved", "primative", "backward looking", etc.

At least the Neanderthals weren't thin-chested scrawny democrat types. Can you imagine what the Neanderthals would have done to Clinton, Carter, or Daschle --- or Kennedy if they'd ever met up with them?

LOL, good point! Hey maybe we jumped on Ted too soon, perhaps he was just speaking from reasonable fear!
