Was it racist? I don't know, there's a long history in the US of people referring to black people as monkeys. I read about it before seeing the actual cartoon. I was expecting the chimp to have Obama's face or something. After seeing it I really didn't see it as racist, just retarded. I certainly didn't think it was funny. Little offensive? Maybe, maybe probably- but isn't that what the Post does? Next thing you know people are going to be shocked that Larry Flint publishes smut.
