One good upshot of Joseph Biden
It occurs to me that this grouping of people who were complaining about a double standard in the “Monkey Department” — which is that when Obama is portrayed as a monkey it’s deemed racist, but but but…  Liberals have been portraying George W Bush as a monkey for the past eight years (there’s even a web-page devoted to comparisons between Bush and monkeys), now have a good out. Now they get to photoshop Joseph Biden as a monkey. So, go at it folks!
Of course, this would have worked for any vice presidential selection, and it’s still doubtful that Biden will be portrayed as a monkey, even as it is certain that the Obama – monkey shirt will remain selling in Confederate states.
