Another interesting story relating the monkey(s)

The picture Iran showed of the monkey "afterwards" is not the same monkey that they showed prior to the launch.

When confronted; Iran then indicated that they have done TWO space shots with two separate monkeys

I cannot imagine how calling Ahmadinejad a monkey was ever racist. Only in La La land I suppose. Believe me I have a very fair idea who the true racists in this forum are. :whiste:

Call Obama a monkey = racist
Call Ahmadinejad a monkey = not racist

Wait, what?

Timeline . Read the text it explains itself . Your viewing things from the perspective of Moses a man who allied himself with aliens and claimed them to be god. When its clear the plagues upon egypt were upon the whole of the earth and all others speak of a object in space they called the destroyer as being the cause. The JEWS made this Destroyer their GOD. Well its time Jeruslem Your GOD returns . How the world reacts to your lies will be interesting. and sense all three major religions except the hebrew god as GOD this whole year is going to be the most amazing in human history . I would like better to be dead but I see that is not my fate.

Don't forget that calling Bush a monkey wasn't racist either. It's OK to compare whites to monkeys, but comparing blacks to monkeys is unacceptable. Iranians? They're kinda dark I guess... better play it safe.

Our country has gotten way too anal about this PC bullshit and going overboard to classify everything as racism. My fiancee was telling me that her boss got into an hour-long conversation with someone based on the contention that the Superbowl commercial with the white guy speaking in a Jamaican accent was racist because... I don't even know why. There are white people who live in the Caribbean who talk like that. But no, couldn't be. If you don't fit into a culture that jives with my assumptions about what you should sound like based on your skin color, it's because you're racist. I tell you, this country...

And incidentally, I understand why comparing blacks to monkeys is racist, given that there was a long history of that happening in the United States and it was used as a "legitimate" justification for treating blacks as inferior to whites. I don't believe we have that same history with middle easterners. So why is this racist as opposed to just generic rudeness?

Gotta love the hypocrisy, the same idiots whining about calling obama a monkey are some of the same ones who have no problem using it against bush

Of course if Ahmadinejad said anything even remotely like this about an Israeli, McCain the phony war hero and all of his warmonger buddies would be screaming for Obama to get out the nuclear launch codes.

Step.
Away.
From.
The crack pipe.

I am genuinely horrified. And it's not even late afternoon yet.
