bobbo, Republicans are Killing America says:

Perkel==while I recognize and give humor a wide path, you appear to be entirely sincere with your ignorant post at #58. You need to listen to the comedy stylings of some of our great black standups when they were younger and angry.

Think a mulatto defines himself or does society do it for him? Maybe it was Dick Gregory talking about “making it” out of the ghetto thru hard work, luck, and help by family and friends: “when you think you have made it, don’t worry, some white people will still remind you that you are black.”

Then there is the well known reality of black self hatred:

if you are white, your are all right,
if you are brown, stick around,
if you are black, get back.

I don’t know how you can live in america and not know these things, so its not “exactly” ignorance. Maybe a variant in not having to face what you actually know?

Here’s a nice little experiment: imagine you, YOU MARK PERKEL, wake up brown skinned like Obaman tommorrow. Now you are given a choice–stay as you are and go forth, or how much of your body would you be willing to give up to regain your white skin? Now don’t be too fast: start with a close haircut. Would you do that to get your white skin back? Toe nails? Eye lashes. Foreskin? I would think “everyone” would give up such small things to return to “normal.” But what of an arm or a leg? Rather be dead?

Never read Black Like Me, or the Invisible Man? Still reality.

# 58 Marc Perkel said, “He might call himself black but I’m not buying that.”

Hmmm. Interesting. Would you say Obama is more or less black than, say, Bill Clinton?

Oh, and by the way Mr Marc – we share an ancestor with ALL mammals. I’ll leave it to DullAss to find a photo of GWB’s face on an elephant seal.

And, just because we came from Africa doesn’t mean we started out black. I’m pretty sure I read that current theory is we all started out rather paler and, as some moved north and became whitish, others moved further south and became more melaninized.

I still think you’re just trolling.

Common sense tells me, context is everything.

The simple fact that John allowed this to be posted on his “Blog” Has just now convinced me to never visit this site again.

Perhaps if enough people join me than maybe they will learn that actions have consequences…

#68 Nobody cares about you. Just go away as fast as you can.

Butter Butt says:

Oh come on.

You just wanted to post the picture and get a bunch of comments!

You know they are both wrong and down right evil.

Personally, I have never liked Bush and I’m not too fond of Obama but neither should be demeaned like this.

If you want to question something why not start with why does the politician that did it get away with it when a ‘regular’ person would be arrested and investigated for a hate crime?!?

How many other noms de blog have you made that identical threat under. What are you hoping to? “Oh, please don’t go.” Just go. You won’t be missed.

What name will you post under next?

WHO CARES IF SOMEONE MAKES FUN OF GEORGE HUSSIN OBAMA OR KING GEORGE BUSH they are both traitors to the people of this country: black, brown or caucasian. Have you seen Obama really having anything to do with the “Black” community = hint NO. They both aim to destroy this country, our living standard and our liberties enslaving us to a world aristocratic caste system, killing 98% ( to a world pop or 500 million ) so they can be sustainable.

If you continue to use history as the marker of what is right and wrong then we should be holding the racist of Africa libel for selling their own people into slavery and where slavery continues in the fair minded Muslim countries. How about we go back to when slavery was prevalent and seize the fortunes of everyone that became rich during the period of slavery, North or South since the country was built on slavery. There wouldn’t be any Demoncrats left and the country clubers Republicrats would be gone as well – what harm could come of it = fewer rich elitist couldn’t have Mexican house keepers? Or we could just go around the world telling everyone how to live and what was right and wrong, oh that would be colonialism.

Boobutt and his fellow demoncrats will never ever let anything about race go, you just can’t make fun of anyone that is among their protect “pets/slaves”. Just like midnight basketball which was going to end city crime, they are the truce racist of America.
They’ve shown their superiority among the induahviduals of the world by showing they are the protectors of all that is right and moral, which is whatever they believe at the moment. They will never be happy because they use their moral manipulation to advance themselves and their own personnel fortunes. They are the leaches of society, they give nothing back but demand the ultimate from everyone else.

Whatever………………………………..

#77 LOL. Nice try.

hiatus says:

Black people used to be referred to as monkeys. White people were not. If you drew a picture of bush eating watermellon and fried chicken. It would also not be racist. If it was of obama it would be. Younger people don’t know of the stigma and some older people pretend they don’t.
