Meh, I've called him worst, but not because of his race.

Name calling is something we all did in grade school. It just shows his lack of intelligence and makes him look stupid. Hopefully Obama will not get sucked in and respond back.

If you think people are "attacking" you and not taking you seriously it's because all of your posts are inconsistant. You started this thread arguing one point, and throughout the rest, have completely disagreed with YOURself and are now agreeing with me. Whether you realize it or not. You are running around in circles. In otherwords, you have shown everybody that your views are infact what another poster under this thread has said they are. BS. In this post that I just quoted, right now, you are now disagreeing with your very first post, where you said...

All BS aside your very first agrument was. If the black people in the United States want respect they need to earn it. These are YOUR words. Not mine. You are the first and only person to claim the African American race being the cause of all of this. You said you had seen NO OTHER president, in the history of your life, who had EVER been disrespected like this president had, along with those of the rest of his "African American subculture" being the cause of it. Remember? If anyone from the outside of this country has been watching the events in Ferguson, Chicago, NY and etc, everybody here in the U.S would be "quite dismayed", how all of those people would view the problems this black African American subculture is causing (by being unarmed while shot by police). Which by the way, makes no sense and has nothing to do with the subject of this thread at all. But this was the point you were arguing. Is it all coming back to you now?. You didn't finish there. You went on to say. "These kinds of comments", being called a monkey, "Are not uncommon" being said to someone who is part of the African American subculture "outside of the USA".

You then ended your rant by saying, if the black "African American subculture" which includes President Obama, wants to "Get Respect" then they need to "Earn it". You also said nobody else in the world would ever vote for a President who is part of this African American subculture which you, and only you, keep bringing up.

And for some reason, you think NOW in this post, ackowledging his caucasian mother makes a difference. Why didn't you make a reference to her in your very first post where you were putting "Black" President Obama in the same pot as the "whole African American subculture"?. He was simply JUST black then, when your problem was with the whole African American race and the President who is a part of that, and now he's HALF black all of sudden. This is why all of your posts are being ridiculed by everyone on here.

You're actually the one and only person under this thread who said black Americans and their actions were the root of the problem. You said they don't earn any respect and then in the same breath ended your rant by saying Obama at one time had it and now is left being called a monkey. This is why you are getting "attacked". Because your "off topic" words show extreme ignorance and very little intelligence.

Your very next post then argued that this was the first time in history that you have ever seen any other leader call any American President a word like monkey. And I went on to explain to you that this has indeed happened to other American presidents. So making the reference, which I made to Bush and other presidents is Yes, very relevant. Or does infact change your hypothesis, that only strong leaders do not get called names by other leaders in other countries. The only person who has said anything about "they are doing it only because he is black" is you. In your very first post where you state the African American subculture is the problem.

I simply said, that Yes other leaders have attacked our Presidents in the past with personal verbal insults but the N. Koreans chose to use a racist remark instead of choosing one that is not racial in nature because of the Presidents racial background. Which yes, does include African.

None of your post are consistant. You either posted your very first racial rant under this thread to troll or you really just don't know how to argue your point well enough.

So if we go by this last post and not your very first one, you have changed your mind, and agree that "the African American subculture" which includes President Obama, who yesterday you thought had a hard time getting respect from those inside of U.S as well as outside, is NOW NOT the reason for the N.Koreans racial verbal attack. Even though you argued those "kind of comments are not uncommon outside the USA" because of that specific race's actions. And you also agree, even through some of your "Darkest days", you do acknowledge, that there are other US presidents who have been verbally attacked with this same type of pejorative. As you say, "Bush being another idiot buffoon", which does change your previous hypothesis that there were not any.

And again, your own opinion of President Obama not being a "strong leader" in your eyes, as part of the problem, is just that. An opinion. It justifies nothing. That does not make your statement factual, only opinionated. By arguing your side with your opinion only, you will continue to be attacked by the rest of the commentors under this thread, and blamed for writing BS. Different people see different Presidents as strong or weak. But no, this is not the only cause for the remarks made from N.Korea. Other Presidents, in the past, whether they were considered strong or weak by YOU or not have also been verbally attacked by leaders around the world.

After reading this post I see we have agreed to agree. And there's nothing more to say or argue. Thank you.

I wonder if it bothers Obama or if he just laughs about it. Certainly childish on the Part of N. Korea. Since every part of life in N. Korea is regulated by the Dear Leader and his lackey's, they have no comprehension that Obama has almost nothing to do with what Hollywood does.

Why would being called a Monkey be offensive?

Everybody likes monkeys.

If I wanted to insult somebody I would call him a Politician, or a Lawyer.

At the bottom of the page is a tread about a similar comment back in May. This has more to do with the nature of North Korea then just the movie. I don't care at all about the movie. A demigod dictator trying to make me live under the censorship his citizens live under is another matter and I do care very much about that.

I don't like monkeys. Beady eyed, poop flinging little monsters .

I like apes though.

On topic , Kim is ridiculous. If only he realized how the rest of the world looks at him with bemused contempt, he probably start a war over it . Stupid little ninny.

I'm pretty sure he's laughing at him. Now Mrs.Obama is another story. She doesn't take any poo.
