The RACIST attacks on Bush need to end!  

LOL I just made a post about this its called no such thing as reverse racism you should check it out, because It will definitely explain what I think about it!

It is just ridiculous, how people can be racist towards one type of person and its funny but not another, this country is just completely twisted!

I know why you are doing this. It is because of the cartoon about the monkey that got shot and the big deal people are making about it. They are screaming racist when in fact it was not an attack against president Obama. It was not about the president at all. It was a cartoon that criticized the writers of the stimulus bill. Which would be Pelosi and Olly, and a few others. It basically states that they have the bill writing skills of a monkey.
But because we have a african american president, they are going to use that to their advantage. Any attack against the democrats, their agenda or the quality of work they do is now going to be interpreted as an attack on Obama and therefore racist.
Because of this whole mess, how many newspapers are going to be less likely to say anything negative about the democrats in office (any of them) for fear of being called racist? It is a way to control what is said and printed by the media.
Basically what I take from the whole thing is if you are willing to publicly disagree with anything this administration does.....be willing to be called a racist. Because that is exactly what is going to happen.
They talked about the Obama not playing the race card when he was running for office....well now you know why...he was saving it til now. For the next four years all we are going to hear is how racist we are as a country if we do not go along with Obama and Pelosi.

Either we fall for this game and shut up and sit back and take it so we are not called racist. Or we speak up anyway and not let it bother us. Just because someone calls you a racist does not make you one.

It's always ok to be racist and degrading in general to Republicans. Even Michael Steele has been the victim of racism but it's ok because he's a Republican. If he were a Democrat the media would run with it every day for a week and not let go. It's completely a double standard.

I've seen some of this *humor* and don't find it funny at all. It's too disrespectful and childish...directed at anyone, much less a former President of the United States.

Um, monkeys are not a race, and there is nothing racist about relating someone to a monkey. I am bothered more by the scientists who keep trying to prove scientifically that we are all actually just another version of apes. They haven't found a common ancestor yet so I will keep standing up for my right to not be a monkey! Who's with me?!

How ironic that you'd say there would be public outrage if the same was done to Obama. Our local news at noon is running a segment about a political cartoon that they are saying is racists towards Obama that was in the New York Post. Because it depicts cops holding a gun on an outraged chimp (referring to a chimp that went mad and had to be shot by police to protect the owner) with a caption that reads, "they will have to find someone else to write the next stimulus package." The cartoon does not reference Obama, or race...it looks to me like they were commenting on the insanity of the "porulus" bill, not a specific person.....AND yet there is outrage from civil rights activists. Why is such a cartoon racists when the president is a minority (I won't say when he's black, because he's not, he's only half African, he's not even half African American), but when the president is a WASP (white, anglo-saxon, prostestant) it is ok to decpict him as a monkey. Where is the outrage for Bush? I don't hear him crying about it?

Here is the link to the cartoon (I hope) http://www.huffingtonpost...

At what point will we say, ok this is a double standard that has been taken too far?

It is not okay to be racist toward former President Bush. Those who are just are demonstrating their rudeness.

Comparing 0bama to a monkey is an insult to monkeys.

At least monkeys don't chose to be evil.

If Michale Steel runs in 2012 he dang sure has my vote,I want to see a real BLACK person as our president,you know a BLACK person that has a BLACK father and mother and not an Oreo cookie like Barack Obama.

Since Barack Obama has came on the national stage our country has slipped BACKWARDS looking closer to the 1960'S,I expect blood baths in the inter cities before this nightmare come to it's end.

Democrats and liberal call any one who disagrees with them "RACIST",Eric Holders called the American people "COWARDS" yesterday,I for one am very sick and tired of these dangerous liberals, they have been in office less the 30 day's,VERY SCARY PEOPLE!!!

I have been thinking all the BAD Barack Obama has done just 29 day's in office if a real BLACK person runs for president of the United States he may have dashed a real black person chances of getting elected and that is so vey sad.

I don't even go to them kind of degrading links if people would not it would run them out of business sooner the better for our country.

I haven't heard about any riots in response to Obama being made fun of. The term racist does tend to be overused in this country. to me it shouldn't matter why you are being mean to somebody the point is you shouldn't be mean to anybody in the first place. The only type of racism I'm worried about is the kind where they pull out a 45 and threaten to blow your head off. A few snide remarks don't mean anything to me. Sometimes I think the media blows up racism to distract people from more serious problems. It seems to work extremely well.
