McCain tweet on Iran draws criticism

WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican Sen. John McCain’s tweet comparing Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to a monkey is drawing criticism from a fellow GOP lawmaker as racist.

On Monday, McCain wrote, “So Ahmadinejad wants to be first Iranian in space — wasn’t he just there last week?” He then linked to a news story about Iran launching a monkey into space.

Faced with criticism, McCain said in another tweet, “lighten up folks, can’t everyone take a joke.”

That didn’t satisfy Rep. Justin Amash of Michigan, who tweeted, “Maybe you should wisen up & not make racist jokes.”

McCain tweet on Iran draws criticism

I don’t want anyone to get the wrong idea; I don’t like John McCain, I have never liked John McCain and I doubt if I ever WILL like John McCain.

That said; how in the hell is it a RACIST JOKE to compare Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to a monkey? I would think that if anyone should have their feelings hurt it would be the monkey.

And for the record; how many times during the Bush 43 administration did we see pictures like this?

The Democrats, Libtards and the like called George W. Bush a monkey, a chimp or any other simian reference that their feeble minds thought was going to denigrate him and make him look bad to the American people.

Well, the guy calling it *racist*, Rep. Justin Amash, and a look into his background, may explain a bit of the WHY in this particular instance, as in WHY he would think making a joke about Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to be an act of racism.

Born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and raised in Kentwood, Michigan, Amash is a second generation Arab-American of Palestinian Christian and Syrian Greek Orthodox descent.[4] His father is a Palestinian business owner, whose family immigrated to the United States in 1956 through the sponsorship of a Christian pastor and his family.

ABORTION: The most heinous crime in America

I will say this; I DETEST Liberals! I mean each and every one of the hypocritical liars, I detest everything they believe and everything they stand for, and I didn’t stutter when I said it!

These *touchy/feely* Libbers and their Political Correctness are destroying this nation and are bringing about an emasculated population that is afraid of its own shadow and afraid to speak up for what is RIGHT.

The political correctness, that is, the fear of offending *the other side*, is giving us more than a few politicians, on ALL levels of government, that are nothing more than WUSSES that are pandering for votes. We have politicos on ALL levels that will tell YOU or ME one thing but will kiss the asses of the Libbers just to do the *go along to get along* thing.

Liberalism is a disease, a mental illness.

I suffer from NO SUCH illness, and that may explain WHY I will not run for ANY elected office.

I will NOT pander MURDERERS for votes! I will not make even a minor attempt at an act of civility with those that advocate abortion on demand and thus the MURDER of the most innocent among us.

If YOU are a politician that DOES pander the Libtards and abortion fanatics, if you support politicians that do this kind of campaigning, then they, the politicians, and you that support them are exactly who this post is directed at!
