Keep in mind WC wants to shoot illegals as they cross the border..
No, I think terrible stupid should be reserved for describing a Republican Party official who decides to send out emails with a problematic image of the president rooted in racist ideologies.
Furthermore, labeling this "unproven perceived racism" is called revisionism.

Your opinion. Can you prove she intended to make a racial statement? NO! She could have just been ignorant to how people would see her intent.
I challenge you prove that 100% of the population understands what others consider racist?
Growing up in Oregon, I most certainly don't understand much of the south's ideas of prejudice. I was very ignorant to what some consider racist until visiting forums like this, and I'm sure there are still racist themes I have never heard of.
We are talking about someone from Orange county. Only 1.69% of their population is black. Do you really think such things come to their attention much?
It's a more worthy war to fight than the war on drugs.
pretty funny how wc feels compelled to defend obvious racism.
My point is that it isn't obvious racism to everyone. Perceived does not mean it is. How many TV shows have monkeys been used in without any racial content?
and yet he still defends it. you needn't bother. your pretentious attempt to, is embarrassing.
Firstly, ignorance isn't an excuse.
Secondly, you don't have to have grown up in the south or around a large population of black people to know the history of racism in this country. It's not as if the countless do ents/cartoons/etc. that made this comparison were secret and/or unique to certain communities.
Thirdly, even if we were to go along with your hypothetical (and frankly baseless) suggestion that she was completely unaware of the historical precedents, do you honestly think that the circulation of images which dehumanize one's political opponent (or anyone else, for that matter) is an act worthy of defense?
I refuse to believe anyone can really be this stupid. Apes on their own aren't inherently racist. You'll notice that no one here is attacking zoos for their connection to ante- and postbellum ethnographic rhetoric.
That's a damn good question. I already know his answer.
"Racism is the outrage of that email picture, not the integrity of tactics one uses to fight the enemy. Since, we can't prove that she's being racist, that's what I'm defending against. I refuse to let a poor innocent citizen be assumed the worse just because the majority of Americans still wants to dabble in our dark history. CANT WE ALL MOVE ON PLEASE? Obviously this woman did and we should all learn from her!"
CF, he's really that stupid. Believe it.
the Orange County GOP leadership I presume, since they asked her to step down because of the e-mail.
what about this guy?
Republican Party of Orange County chairman Scott Baugh, who was one of the original people who received the "highly inappropriate" Obama e-mail.
"It's a de able message, it drips with racism and I think she should step down from the committee," he said.
Bush isn't black, he's just dumb.
Why can't you let a black person perform surgery on you?
I find chimps to be extremely funny, mainly because of their mixture of cognizant learning abilities and animal instincts.
Superimpose pictures of chimps upon people, of any race anywhere, and they quickly lose their splendid humorous characteristics. That Republican official may not think she's racist, but she should definitely know her taste in humor is not only questionable politically but from a humor standpoint, as well.
I mean, seriously, what is supposed to be funny about the pictures?
Obviously, that's not obvious racism to everyone.
Besides, categorically distrusting the professional credentials of those of one particular race (but only those of that race) who toil in a field is not racism.
Obviously.
He's nothing if not predictable, good ole WC.
Where are all the Darwin supports?
This thread is now about how cool monkeys are.
I hope this is sarcasm . . .
White person as chimp = probably disrespectful and insulting
Black person as chimp = racist meme, hundreds of years old
According to that joker, blacks are the only real racists.
Politician post a funny Obama monkey picture it's racism.
SNL post the same picture it's comedy gold NBC's ratings go up.
Radio talk show host calls a bunch of black women playing basketball nappy ho's its racism and lost of Job.
Chris Rock says the same thing people laugh and he gets another contract on HBO.
How ed up is the country?
