I thought we've progressed beyond the racist rhetoric of calling humans "monkeys". Or has Axelrod devolved?
Sorry, I believe I asked first. I'll restate: Do you think that making an argument that hinges on ignoring the subject's historical background makes you look clever?
I'll remember that incase anyone calls Obama a monkey in the future. Thanks for the heads up.
Refering an black American as a monkey (it their face) can pretty assure a beat down in most cases. Calling him/her something else insulting may get a different response. The point that you are trying to make is weak at least and at most down right insulting to the average person's intelligence
Didn't think you'd have the nerve to find out. Just curious, does your same rule apply to Cain, West, Thomas?
I don't do things intentionally to tick people off. Plus, even if I wanted to, I could just shoot them dead if they tried anything and easily get off with self-defense.
Of course it applies. Once people stop b**ching about the monkey remark with Obama, I'll stop calling people racists who use it on Newt, Cain, etc.

So you come online to post it but you wouldn' pose that questionto to a a Black fraternity, at least not in person? Why the double standard in the real world versus the cyber world?

And then you go on to contradict yourself or resort to double standards, again.

David Axelrod is white. Any comparisons that are a result of racism would include David too.
That's not only wrong, it's downright stupid. Talk about failure to launch of outrage
That would mean we get to call Axelrod a house whitey?
