That's fine, Carla, and a good explanation for a legitimate use of the term.

Unfortunately, many use the term as a way of discrediting the fact that they are Americans just like those who originated in other continents and countries. The sooner you drop the term and, like others, become simply an "American", the better for all of us.

So why only one monkey. And you didntthink it was congress till you were told what it meant by Rush Limbaugh.PS to the joker who made the welfare jokes about blacks. 65% of welfare is spent on white nonhispanic people. 1 in 8 children is America go to bed hungry. Blacks are 13% of the population yet the per captia rate is the same for white and blacks.. Blacks go prison at 7- 10 times the rate of white per capita there about 800 thousand blacks in prison and about 650 thousand white nonhispanics in prison..Pet captia means accord to our pop in the U.S. 13% vs 70%. Our per capt rate to prison is higher. So how can our welfare rate be the same per capita. White take up 2 trllion of our 3 Trillion welfare budgett.

This is crazy it may be somewhat racist, but guess what there are things said about Jews, Spanish, Chinese, Middle Eastern, Obese and a number of other groups. Quit being so sensitive. I am for Free Speech even if it is not the best thing being said.

Black people do not seem to be so proud that they continue to call themselves African American. Why? Unless you are a direct descendent of an African as in our President who can call himself African-American you should call yourselves black. It seems to me like calling yourself African-American is conceding to the racist whites that black is not a good thing.

I am neither white or black but I am shocked by this cartoon. You can always find folks who'll defend it as free speech and folks who'll split hair saying it is congress which writes bills and not President. Shooting of the chimpazee was a tragic yet necessary. This cartoon definitiely is not necessary! It has zero comic value and insults our President and all those who elected him. America set an example by electing Obama and folks such as the writer of this insult America and American decency. The post needs to fire the cartoonist-no question about it and publish an apology!

I can't believe the people writting on this site, one calls nim a Rasist Cracker Dog, and only one other person points out all the hateful things said about Bush by the press. It is only rasist if you critize black people and you only disrespect the office if you make statements about a Democratic president. One way liberal bast_rds

i despise ignorant people who deny racism when they see the only reason someone could view such a comic and not feel its racist is if they are racist and are trying to de-escalate the situation not one of your racist supporters can give any logical explantion to what the true meaning of this comic is and on top of that you try to throw other offensive comics in the loop as if we should say "yeah your right they are offensive to everyone so maybe we should chill" Fu** that not one black person supports this comic and you think thats a coincidence. F*** you julie i bet you are a middle age white women possibly from virginia carolinas etc. (other states that maintained slavery) and more than likely attended or had family that attended a kkk meeting
