Well, I guess we should get ready

[Catherine Vincent]

I heard a cspan caller refer to President Elect Obama as "monkeyboy". They couldn't wait to start calling him a monkey. We DUers would call Bush a "chimp". I guess this is tit for tat with them.

1. people have the right to insult the President.

However, our President will be working for them as well as for us, and all will do better under President Obama than mrbush.

3. "monkeyboy" has been used to describe Steve Ballmer as well.

Looks and acts like a shaved ape... even screams "Give it up for me!" at one point; narcissistic banana chowing, horny gorilla with no mate...

I see nothing of that attitude in President Obama... not even the post hyperactive catching of breath.

Mind you, I am not ignorant of the racist connotation that little freak on cpsan opted to use. And, yeah, Democrats have called Bush a chimp too. Bush has more in common with Ballmer too...

6. What did anyone expect? We've been calling bush** 'Chimpy' in one

form or another for 8 long years.

Of course these people mean it in a racist way. It shows the emptiness of their souls. Completely deviod of depth or rational thought. WE called bush** Chimpy because he acts and thinks like one. They mean something else. But hell, we're all just overdeveloped 'monkeys' anyway. This time we got one that came from the top of the evolutionary ladder, not one that failed to evolve like bush**.

8. That's *PRESIDENT* Monkeyboy to you, asshole!

:rofl:

12. There ya go! n/t

[Wiley50]

10. The difference is: When we call bush "Chimpy" it isn't a racial slur n/t

13. Touche.

14. exactly, this is hate speech, and wouldnt be allowed in

civilized countries like Canada.
