I knew about the chimp attack on that unfortunate woman in Connecticut. I also know that it is Congress that writes the laws. So to me, it was a mocking of those that put this stimulus plan together. I'm sure even 8th graders know the President signs laws, not come up with them.

Some people will see racism in almost anything. THAT's how divided we've become. To draw this conclusion that it was aimed at President Obama is akin to a "six degrees of Kevin Bacon" connection.

And I predict an increase of "self censorship" because of it. Totally unhealthy for a democracy, IMO.
