GOP Activist uses Facebook to compare Michelle Obama to a gorilla

Men are not measured by how they look but in the size of their wallets - if we are going to go with a direct comparison.

Or the size of their private parts.

Thanks for the reminder mawilson

And yes they are sister Cleo --- think of the definitions of success Western society tells little boys...

How annoying. Michelle Obama is just another clothes peg. Will we ever learn?

Seriously, even if Michelle is butt ugly, does that make her less of a person? Are women just measured by their looks, still? This is pathetic.

Are we? Sadly sister Cleo, we are. Do I like it? Not particularly --- but it is still true

Damn... so i shouldn't eat the extra falafel scoops that the guy put on my sandwich?

Success for boys is measured by power, influence and money. It really doesn't matter if they are fat, thin, bald, hairy, old or young.

My measures of success are not the same though, and never will be.

You should share said falafel with me

That's what mawilson and I were referring to. Which is as fvcked up a standard as the importance placed on looks for women.

Well I guess it works for the middle-aged folks who go in for 4-in-a-hotub sex-tourism trips.

[Peikko 1,575]

It is, of course. I didn't argue differently. However, at least a man has some say in his success by those standards, where a woman has none.

Columbia Mayor Bob Coble appears to have seen no clear jest at all. He told WIS10: "You know, I think the comment is inappropriate. It's a racist comment."

I agree with the Mayor.

And I agree with you.

UNlike most Saints here, I have told my share of jokes among friends I would never say in public.

I imagine this guys racist joke was on a page (facebook) that he controlled access too.

As far as I can see, this gorilla joke can have no context except... racist, but we don't have to worm our way into peoples private facebook accounts to find this ugliness, it is posted right here at VJ every time the topic of Faith comes up.

This pic in the story has to be one of the best of the First lady I have seen yet.

If that's the best pic she's got, we are in for some hellish ugly 4 years. Maybe some surgical reduction of the lower jaw and a nose job would make her not so ugly to look at.

Joyce approves. Especially the synthetic (tell her it's not silk!) harvest gold blouse.

Is anyone obliging you to look at things you find ugly? There is nothing uglier than an ugly soul

Joyce is always goovy

Can anyone tell me what exactly is the role of the First Lady (Man - if that ever comes about)?

Is anything about the role political? Are we supposed to believe that the wife/husband children of the president are necessarily of the same political persuasion as the spouse? That they are politically active? That they have any say in being there, aside from not getting a divorce when the spouse suggests running?

Don't troll. Offending post and posts quoting same have been removed.

[Peikko 1,575]

What was removed?

I hate this thread censorship, I really, really hate it!
