Mr. Man, you may be right about subtle (or not so subtle) implications and all, but the point you are missing is that sheer number of people who have NONE, zip, zero, null set of moral foundation to whine about being insulting after their demented behavior of the last eight years. They may THINK they have a right to say “ABC” about President Bush, and that I in turn do NOT have the right to say “ABC” about President Obama. They may think that, and they are welcome to go on thinking it. We are not asking for their approval any more, and that’s the point. As I said, it is not the right that went down the “Chimpy” road, so spare us the whining about it. Maybe certain parties should consider the ramifications of their childish behavior before acting out.
With that in mind, let me offer you another one before it happens. News flash – the day will come when someone will chuck a shoe (or the like) at Messiah Obama. Maybe here, maybe overseas. They might even hit him .(They are throwing them at caricatures of Hillary in Indonesia right now.)
Is this to be condemned? Is it an outrage? Is it an insult to the United States? You bet it is.
But a bazillion lefties here and abroad will not be able to utter one word of complaint about such an event without getting properly smacked uspide the chops. Because they APPROVE of this kind of thing. They think it just jolly, a wonderful example of free speech, and darn funny to boot. Hah hah, rollics all around. Had it comin’, doncha know, ’cause of that “stimulus” and all. “He deserved it.”
Not. But I can say “not”. The people who laughed at Bush in Iraq cannot. And it almost certainly will happen somewhere, sometime.
That is the world such fools and imbeciles have helped to give us.
Would *I* call Obama a chimp? No, I would not. I don’t roll that way. Millions of others DO, and I am less than interested in their opinions on such matters as this cartoon.
