To imply Obama is a monkey is to imply he's less evolved (and by extension so is anyone else with African lineage) which makes it racist.
Is this sexist? No. Is it Ageist? You better fucking believe it- but most of the old people who would be offended are too busy eating at Old Country Buffet to give a shit, so it's ok.
I don't get "Barack out with my cock out"
Is this a pun on some new masterbation euphemism?
Didn't find the Hillary one all that clever. My preference was for the one where McCain has ground up the Obama supporters - mostly for the work in Photoshop
I'm outraged at the elephants. To abuse animals that way for the sake of a joke is outrageous and unacceptable. All of you who passively ignore the torture of elephants are Good Germans. You are Nazi sympathizers who have stood by and allowed a holocaust of animal abuse. Hitler! HITLER!
Yes, I know they were just photoshopped. So? SO!!! What's the difference, Adolph?
I'm not so sure this is sexist (ageist or sure). You might be able to say something like, as women age, the value society attributes to them diminishes (I thought that bit in Paul Constant's piece on masculinity was interesting). Or that society tends to judge a woman's looks more harshly than a man's...
But, not a slam dunk in the sexist department in my book...
when i saw the jaba the hut thing, i was immediately reminded of when rush limbaugh said that people wouldn't elect hillary because nobody wants to watch a woman age before their eyes, which seems pretty sexist to me. but hey, age-ist works, too.
Duh, people. The reason that it's sexist is that no one would ever make the same ad about a man, no matter how unpleasantly he was ageing. Mostly because no one really thinks about men's appearance as they age as unattractive. It's women who are supposed to stay unlined and unsagging.
By way of reference, check out the amount of media coverage and mockery made of McCain's age--and then think about how much of it has anything whatsoever to do with how he LOOKS at his advanced age.
Bullshit, Leek. I've seen plenty of stuff about how you don't really notice how old McCain is until you see him in person or up close, and then, yecchhh.
The notion that women are delicate flowers and must, unlike men, be treated with care and gentility at all times is not a feminist notion. Would-be defenders of Clinton would be well-advised to toughen up and stop pretending that every little slight -- even one that references femaleness -- is not rampant sexism. Women can compete on their merits, not their collection of supposed injuries.
Bullshit back, Fnarf. Nothing of this caliber would be out there, and the fact that I pay at least an average amount of attention and haven't seen what you've seen seems to indicate that you're remembering some few-and-far-between instances.
I'm definitely not in favor of a "delicate flower" stance. But the idea that the odd "gee, McCain does look old" comment equals the level of mockery of ageing women is ridiculous.
on a grander scale the "why risk it? " question could be about everyone--yourself included!-- getting old. and the answer would be "consider the alternatives."
Wow, nothing like uniting the Democratic party, huh Dan? This is totally fucked, and I wish you would get your pinhead out of your ass and just focus your vitriol and hatred on MCCAIN! Jesus fucking christ this pisses me off so much so, I might just vote for Hillary - just because of this kind of right-wing republican type of crap.
Man the Jaba is so cold. She looks cold and tired, well who the fuck wouldn't be? Sexism trumps racism, surprise, surprise. But now you can
total see why Bill went for her.

Fuck this.
I will most definitely Barack out with my cock out!
(I saw that Hills pic early this morning, and immediately thought of ECB's wraith... guess someone else thought the same thing)
I think you mean "wish", Dan.
1) Ouch.
2) Hahahaha.
3) Typo! ("with they could run")
This is shit.
Dan, you're lithping again.
Well yeah I could jack off to Obama, I sure as hell am not going to wack off looking at Hillary or McCain!!
That's what Erica Barnett would call sexist, and in this case, she'd probably be right.
At the very least, it's horribly ageist.
I still think it's funny, but I'm a misanthropic asshole.
SEXIST! most def.
Whoa, HRC is a fox in 20XX.
Ok, I'm stumped. Who is the woman from 1969?
Very offensive! And that's what makes it funny.
Ha ha ! Hillary Clinton has baggy skin !
Hey, fuck you!
Hey, fuck you!
(whoops on 14 :)
Glad it wasn't a monkey or everyone would be having a shit fit.
rascism + ageism is better than rascism + ageism + sexism. progress.

Assholes!
@20 It's a play on "Rock out with your cock out"
Man, how come men look so much better as they age?
SEXIST! SEXIST!!!

My personal favorite:
"You know who else is old? Jesus. McCain '08."

I don't think it's truly sexist, because after all, Jabba the Hut is a giant slug-thing.
Maybe it's gastropoidal.
It's not remotely sexist. Dumb, but not sexist. Treating women with reverential respect not required for treatment of men is sexist.
A holocaust of animal abuse? is that anything like the holocaust of silly outrage by whiny vegetarians?

She was a stone cold fox back in '69.
It's easy to forget how painfully old some of these people are.
John McCain is older than Ringo Starr.
I wish you wouldn't dignify this kind of shit with a post about it.
I appreciate the link but you're better than this misogynist bullshit.
on a grander scale the "why risk it? " question could be about everyone--yourself included!-- getting old. and the answer would be "consider the alternatives."
I must agree with Leek. McCain's age is made fun of, but you'd never see something like this if she were a man.

Is it sexist and offensive? Of course it is. That's the joke, people.
Does anyone really think they'd come out the business end of a Sarlacc looking any better?
