somehow calling one man Dubya is cool and calling the next one Hussein is not.
you guys and your double standards.
But those terms are not at the same level.
What subliminal fear factor is being raised by "Dubya"? Is there a corresponding anti-Redneck hatred from ignorance similar to the anti-Arab hatred hiding inside many Americans?
Maybe "Barry" is at the same level, or possibly "Obamasiah".

Re: Wow this is shocking
Artemis says:
Interesting, the double standard of George W. Bush as a Chimp, or Colin Powell as an ape, is just humorous....
I'm trying to remember who called Powell an ape. Can you refresh my memory? That is not funny at all. That is racist.
Now calling Bush the Chimpler is not racist, because Bush is a WM whose ears gave that exaggerated characterization without reference to his racial characteristics.
