In an small thread where the DUmmies complain about a "racist" facebook post, they come up with reasons why it was acceptable to compare President Bush to a chimp:

11. Comparing a white person to a chimp is not racist.
Comparing a black person to a chimp is horribly racist.
I didn't make this rule but I don't really have a problem with it.

12. In retrospect, unfortunate, but not racist because

GW's expressions were compared to a chimp because his INTELLIGENCE was suspect.. It was the meme o' the day, that he was not up to par in the smarts department (although most of the chimps pictured, probably had a LOT of innate intelligence)
The difference NOW, is that the anti-evolution , and yes, RACIST out there just love to compare the Obamas BECAUSE they are black, to their "animal counterparts (in their eyes)...a gorilla, a monkey, a chimp = animals and ONLY animals.... They are a clever bunch because they have conflated the two "memes" and say "...but but but YOU guys did the same to "our" president, GW..."
It's also akin to the republicans refusal to accept Obama's presidency as legitimate, when "WE" did the same to GW.. but if you think about it, we DID deny the legitimacy, but for a real reason.. GW's election was suspect at best, and probably existed only because of chicanery, deceit and probably crimes. Republicans deny Obama's legitimacy because.. well, He's BLACK (and unworthy of being president)

The "It's OK when WE do it" crowd.

If the Two Minutes of Hate is directed at whites or Christians it is perfectly OK.

14. So, a troll, a mole, and a sock puppet walked into a bar...
... and they came up with this thread.
Weak.

Hey Buzzie! :bird:
You know that none of us are stupid enough to mole or troll in such a weak way.

That's not a chimp, it's a baboon, big difference.
:-)

White person, black person, white person, black person. What's the difference except to a racist?
Do the DUmimies not realize how racist it is to say it's okay to do or say something about one person because the person is white but not okay to do the same about another because the person is black?
Not just racist, but pure down stupid. No. It's even more stupid than stupid. Is there even a word for something that is more stupid than stupid? If not, I propose "DUmmieish" or "DUmmieistic".

21. Well, Ralphie, I wasn't blaming you.
But some friggin' idiot put this together.
No ill will on my part. This place is a playground for everybody, as far as I'm concerned. It's the obvious stupidity that irks me.
Well, I think it is stupid too.
I don't post anything political on Facebook, nor do I follow political sites. So the only times I see this junk is when others post it here, CU or DU.

Of course. It's probably on their "greatest" page with 100 up-twinkles!

Didn't mean to do that, but I'm not burning one of my moles over there to respond to Buzzie. :-)

Have you DUmmies ever thought th(...waits for laughter to die down...) thought that the reason people compare Obama to a chimp is precisely because of the 8 years of you morons comparing Bush to a chimp?
"You called Bush names like Chimpy McBushitler and kept wanting 'chimpeachment'? Well, let's see how you like it."
And of course, we knew what the reaction would be from day 1:
That's RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA(...takes deep breath...)AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACIST!

11. Comparing a white person to a chimp is not racist.
Comparing a black person to a chimp is horribly racist. why exactly is it horribly racist to compare a black person to a chimp but not a white person? Do you feel that black people are closer to chimps than whites? Do you think that black people look more like chimps than whites?
I didn't make this rule but I don't really have a problem with it. No, you didn't make the rule, but you blindly accept it as law without question or reason. typical DUmmy

Another difference is we didn't cry like stuck pigs when they called Bush Chimpy we just laughed at them.

Humans evolved from chimps. Just saying.

Not exactly, a non-Creationist would tell you they both evolved on slightly divergent tracks from a common ancestor. Close, though.

Evidently not enough because we read stupid things said on Skin's island all the time with which you nod in agreement.

Yeah, like why are there still chimps if they evolved into humans.

It's really so blatant. Ridiculously, so.

Shut up, asshole. It most certainly does not.

I know nothing about chimps, but the jug-eared muslim's wife has to be a cross between Patrick Ewing and a wookie.
