Question for everyone...
Obviously comparing Obama to a monkey is wrong, but what if we compared him to dumbo due to his big ears?
Think that would fly? Someone send an e-mail to the blog in the OP and see what happens.
IIRC I think I remember his wife saying something about him resembling Dumbo.
There are millions of ways to make insulting T-shirts about Obama that aren't racist. The problem isn't making a shirt that insults him, it's just that idiot's website where he's shocked... SHOCKED that a website would delete a shirt that said a black guy was a monkey.
Yep, that's what I mean. If the shirt had Bush as a Curious George the chimp and Obama as Dumbo the elephant it wouldn't be racist. Whites haven't been slurred as chimps and blacks blacks have not been slurred as elephants. Blacks and monkeys? Just ask Howard Cossell (sp?).
The conservatives and their feigned outrage seems to be 'in' this election.
