To everyone who is ripping the Bush twins apart: - Democratic Underground
How about other first ladies?
You want to keep the wives and kids out of it? Then demand that of ALL parties and stop with assuming its race all the time. I was not just speaking about the photo in the OP. My point was Bush was portrayed as a Monkey, Obama too, Laura and Michelle, just because it happens does not automatically point to race. Its this automatic thing where everything is about race with the Obama's and when it finally may be about race ( as in the OP) it won't be taken seriously.
You actually think there can be only one purpose in portraying somebody as a monkey?
Again, and you just said this yourself, the paper admitted to it. And so did Steve McRacist, who uses the same photo for his avatar. Pass the dramamine, the spin is a bit overmuch.
