Ladies and and Gentlemen,

I need some help. From discussions here I have got an impression that reference to a monkey is racistic. Various posters and signs featuring monkeys were more than once presented here in order to prove the racist nature of anti-Obama movement.

Being born far from here, I'm not sure I fully understand this cultural reference.

Here are two pictures:



First one is from Liberal Street Fighter, 2006, second one is from here, found via Google.

I will highly appreciate the comprehensive explanation: are both pictures racist? If only one, which one and why?


UPD: Thanks everybody, I got it. Could have guessed actually.

The ignorance is astounding. Congrats, Mr. Beck.

The short of the articles before: Those ACORN prostitution videos y'all were gushing about last week: fake. Fox, and particular their on-crack investigative team of Giles and O'Keefe got punk'd.

But please, keep throwing progressives in the briar patch. Y'Mental midgets.
