Fact is, the current president has been displayed as a chimp on this very forum, probably by some of the very members complaining about the Obomma chimp caracature. I didn;t see Obomma complaining when the same tactic was used against Bush. Why are Dimmercrats surprised when their own tactics are turned against them??
The difference between calling Obama a chimp
and calling Bush a chimp is enormous.

One is a racial slur.
The other is not.

You would need to put a picture of a slave owner on a shirt
with a bush slogan to have the same racial schism.

It is not about the chimp.
It is about the racism that is still rampant in the US.
