Reply #30: Blunt's monkey analogy has the wrong target. [View All]

[agentS]

If he thinks the monkey chucking the golf ball around is Obama, then he's wrong. Obama has been consistent on the vast majority of his plans. Even his wishy-washyness on the Public Option has been consistent. So the President is not messing up the game.

I think the real monkeys are the hard-right, christian zealot, teabagging, FOX News watching, fat ass Rethugs who are protesting everything without understanding anything and relying off Glenn Beck as a digital "thinking cap".

This week they took the ball out of health care and chunked it into the weeds of "Czarism" or whatever. Despite the current President having less Czars than the previous President, they're obessed because Czars the word came from Russia. Therefore it's dog-whistle politics at it's dumbest. And what does the GOPers do? They just follow the ball and espose the same crap, regardless of whether or not they actually agreed with having Czars (See Lamar Alexander).

Next week the monkeys will throw the ball into illegal immigrant education zone or into birter-istan, and the GOP will play it up to keep their psycho authoritarian block happy.

So is Blunt using blunt racist language? I would say yes, because of his response to others to not worry about sounding racist. But, we know who the real monkeys are, even if Blunt refuses to directly admit it.
