First off, President Obama was not the first President to be compared to a Chimp, so was our last president:

But lets face it there is a huge difference here. First, George was compared to a chimp because well, he looked like a chimp and he wasn't too bright. An idiot if you will. A very light hearted but none the less factual comparison because lets face it, he was an idiot.

Obama on the other hand in the cartoon was depicted as a chimp because African Americans have always been compared to monkeys and not because of their intelligence. It has always been a racial connection when comparing an African American and a monkey no matter what the species. That was done in poor taste. They could have picked another animal and yes I do get the connection between the out of control chimp....go tell that one to someone else because Im not buying that one. 

What I am surprised NO ONE is talking about is the fact if the chimp in the cartoon is supposed to represent Obama in any way, shape or form, the caption reads "They'll have to find someone else to write the next stimulus bill".....The chimp representing Obama is dead, shot.....The cartoon is more than racist, it suggests assassination.

How disgusting is that? How that cartoon could have been run is beyond me. Its racist and promotes the assassination of our president. The creator should be interrogated and potentially charged.
