I'm sixty years old, and I pay more attention to politics than almost anyone I know. Nevertheless, I have never seen or heard a single comment about a President putting his feet up on a desk until that President was a black Democrat.
Never.
You guys claim that you didn't like it when Bush (or Bush, or Reagan, or Ford, or Nixon, or Eisenhower) did it but I'll never believe you until you show me something you wrote complaining about Bush or one of those other guys putting his feet on the desk.
And if it gets its own plane when the family goes on vacation!
I actually looked here for several days after the news of the second Obama dog to see if anybody could drum up some faux outrage over it, but I didn't see anything (suprisingly) - or I missed it.

This.
I started to post something similar several times but kept deleting it - but I agree with you 100%.
I believe the fact that people are outraged that President Obama has his foot on the desk has less to do with him not having an 'R' by his name than it does the color of his skin, though.
But you're right - being a black Democrat just makes it soooo much worse ("Our blacks are better than their blacks!")
That kind of hand gesture will get you kicked out of the 1st grade.
