When pushing stories about outrages, it might be best to choose a story where you don't have to say "Well, it's not racist when we do it."When confronted, the Orange County GOP official insisted the image was not at all racist. There exists a rich vein on the Internet of conservative blog posts that don't seem to understand at all why comparing Barack Obama to a primate is racist, while comparing George Bush to one is not racist. This is a conversation that is still going on.
See, when Bush was president, apparently some upset person or people created a wealth of George W. Bush monkey Photoshops. The argument from many on the right here is that because of this, a hundred years of racist sentiment comparing Africans and African Americans to primates apes is negated.
And then no, wait, that's the whole argument.
The Louvre of Obama Photoshop, The People's Cube, "proved" this reverse racism not long ago when it created identical president shirts likening Bush and Obama to a monkey. One was banned and one was not.
That the Obama one was deemed racist by CafePress and Zazzle, and the Bush one was not, proves racism regarding Obama doesn't exist and everyone who says so is a hypocrite.

Rationalization meaning not agreeing that it's racist to do it to Obama but it isn't racist to do literally the exact same thing to Bush?Rationalization is right out the door on this one.

That's rational, not rationalization, dude. Rationalization would be arguing that the most powerful man in the world deserves special consideration because some people who looked like him - not his Kenyan ancestors, true, but they shared a predilection for melanin in skin and hair - were mistreated in the past.
I'll agree with you guys on 17 year old Michael Jordan, but when one becomes President of the United States it's time to pull on one's big girl panties and stop squealing about one's victimization.
North Korea needs to get its facts straight, hes a Half black monkey and I apologize to the members of Pan troglodytes for associating such a low lifeform with you.
Btw to the folks who like to scream "Youz b wacis", heres a pic of GWB that the media liked to toss around when he was in office..

lol. Never have decided if that gif represents overwrought manic moral righteousness or simply being lovingly serviced by a tea bagger....
Hardy har har.
To bad there have been instances of him being called a monkey on TV by media hosts, and there have been articles from the MSM that has compared him to a monkey aswell. All you can find on Obama is people getting into a hissy-fit if the same is applied to him [ie: the untouchable one].
Bush was referred to as a monkey by the media several times, more as a inside joke than anything but its still calling him a monkey.
Erin Burnett calls President a Monkey on Live TV:

Back in 2006 Hard core Democrat Bob Cesca made a article about Bush titled "Bush Looks An Awful Lot Like A Monkey"
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bob-cesca/bush-looks-an-awful-lot-l_b_14266.html
To be fair, Bush really does look like a monkey and I don't remember seeing his birth certificate. Who's to say this isn't his baby picture?

Isn't treating someone differently based on the color of their skin the very definition of racism?
".........Did Ted Nugent move to North Korea? I wonder because of the super hot racist rhetoric aimed at President Obama by the Hermit Kingdoms state-run media. In a January interview with guns.com, Nugent called the president a Chicago communist-raised, communist-educated, communist-nurtured subhuman mongrel......
Calling the President a communist makes Ted Nugent a racist??? Oh my... Libs, libs... come on.. really?
So everybody mistrusts the news. Except when the news is about North Korea, then everything is always 100% accurate.
So, is it racist to think that someone is racist when they aren't racist, you just perceive them to be do to your own preconceived ideas?
