Smart on the part of Axelrod, as Obama enjoys racial immunity against monkey-based counter-analogies.

They know that all they need to do is keep taunting Newty and he'll eventually throw a public temper tantrum of some kind or another.

Dangerous to taunt the monkey, even while he's up a pole.

Heh... except these days, Newt can't do anything more dangerous than flap his gums and bang his chubby little fists in impotent rage.

And Newt Gingrich, who is 100% unelectable. A mean-spirited, unpleasant imp with a checkered past.
 
2011-12-13 03:40:21 PM
And do we really need to see Newt's monkey butt?

Man, Tea Party supporters are in for a rude awakening when they find out they've nominated a sham of a man who wouldn't know what family values were if they bit him on the ass.

Where's your party loyalty man? Are you really going to vote for 0bozo Che Guevra Dumbledore over Gingrich?

But we all enjoy a good laugh at the monkey's expense. So if anything, this should be highly entertaining.

So, just going to say this to diffuse right-wingers later in the thread - I don't think comparing Gingrich to a monkey is fair. He doesn't look like or act like a monkey.

Now comparing him to a hippo, I could see. Or perhaps a pig. Of course, neither of those animals are known for climbing poles. I would say "the bigger the hog, the better the view of its asshole" isn't quite as snappy, but I guess it would work.

In any event, calling Gingrich a monkey is insulting to thinking primates everywhere and was in poor taste.

This comparison, however, is spot on:

What if the monkey begins his climb with his butt right in your face? The higher he climbs, the less you'll see.

I think you are right.
 
2011-12-13 04:05:33 PM
That's actually a very common Spanish phrase:

""Cuanto mas alto trepa el mono, más se le ve el culo"

Dunno... I think it loses something in translation. Also, I wouldn't mind if Newt is the nominee. Mainly because Obama would WRECK that pathetic excuse of a human being.

Is this racist? I seem to remember something about monkey jokes equaling racism?

No?

May be my faulty memory.

I see no reason why we should prevent a large percentage of the American people from enjoying primate-centered humor simply because of their continent of origin.

Try applying this metaphor to Obama and see what happens.

Certainly applies to the do-nothing Lecture-in-Chief.

And in case you ain't figured it out.....fat ass Axlrod is baiting the opposition into referring to Obama as a monkey.

A rare and welcome opportunity for agreement :-)

Are there any conceivable dark horses out there? This slate is bizarre.

Like Gingrich needs any encouragement.

Newt won't be the nominee. This is all fun and games.

culebra: Newt won't be the nominee. This is all fun and games.

I honestly think he's the deliberate warm up act. He's keeping conservatives interested in light of a dismal slate. That leaves Romney free to be boring until they get to the convention.

Although Romney, who always seems testy to me, appears especially so now that he's not the heir apparent. So it could just be an unconstrained clusterfark.

Oh the monkey wrapped his tail around the flagpole, to see his asshole, and the one, two, three!

Really? No kidding. I mean, it's not like Obama's intractable opposition hasn't used thinly veiled racial epitaphs against the man.

When speaking of a candidate's electability, we are typically referring to the general election, not the primaries.

Yes, it's not like racist shiat bags and white supremacists in this country have a long history of referring to blacks as monkeys or gorillas in an attempt to dehumanize them.

Christ, some of you folks are dense... Most likely intentionally, which is the worst kind of dense.

I'm sure they'll be more than willing to oblige, even if they don't read this story or know who David Axelrod is.

Nah, He'll find a way to weasel out. He doesn't want to be President, he wants to sell books to pay for his Tiffany's account.
