Participant[quote=flu]And the explanation of the chia pet is…?[/quote]
Because black people have fros?
Back to the monkey thing — call Obama a dog or a pig or a socialist or a marxist. But calling him a monkey is just stupid. Aren’t there plenty of other animals to chose from instead than the one that has historically been used to describe blacks? You’re just asking to be called a racist as soon as you call him a monkey — and rightly so.

Participant[quote=flu]It’s perfectly fine to stick Bush on a monkey stuff animal tshirt. But if you do that with obama, oh no….that’s racist.[/quote]
I feel sorry for you if you can’t tell the difference. Let me explain it to you: Black people are called monkeys because of the color of their skin and their physical features — the very definition of racism. Bush was called a monkey because he wasn’t very smart, which has nothing to do with his skin color or race.
If anything, Bush was a victim of ‘intellectualism,’ not racism.

ParticipantGood, then we agree! Although I still think you’re deluding yourself if you think that the tea parties were some sort of bi-partisan effort. They may have started out that way, but were quickly hijacked by the GOP and Fox News as a convenient excuse to vent their frustrations over their loss of the election and power. Sure there were maybe a few Dems there, but there were a few Repubs at the war protests too — would you call those bipartisan then?
Screw tea, let’s go have a beer.

ParticipantI’m opposed to the bailouts too, but let’s have some intellectual honesty here — which administration started TARP? Where was all the outrage over the last 8 years when the deficit was doubled? Where was all the outrage at spending 12 billion a month for six years on an unecessary war? The point is that everyone is to blame. Can you explain all of the “Impeach the Kenyan” and “Monkey see, monkey spend” signs too?
Why now? Why not 6 months ago or 6 years ago? The answer is that taxes are a convnient excuse to complain about losing an election. How many of the protesters make over $250k? Since when is a 3% tax increase — to what it was under Clinton and still lower than it was under Reagan — socialism and “taxation without representation?” Was Reagan a socialist? Who was it that said deficits don’t matter? Why were protesters of Bush v. Gore considered whiners and sore losers while tea protesters are “true Americans?”
I’m all for protesing and dissent — but at least be honest about what you’re protesting. You’re pissed that you lost — and that’s fine. I was pissed when I lost in 2000/2004, so I feel your pain. But at least man up and realize that elections have consequences. And if you don’t like those consequnces you can make your voice heard — where it counts — in four years.
The opposition has blown their load way too prematurely. What are they going to do when Obama proposes health care? What are they going to do when he proposes energy reform? How about stem cells? What about social security reform? Will there be any heads left to explode?
Or maybe you’re right and it’s all the fraudulent socialist Muslim Kenyan’s fault. Or maybe I’ve just had one too many Lost Abbey Judgement Day ales.
