All you need to do is look at all the uber Conks on this board with blackface caricatures as avatars...
And also:
Political Caricatures of Obama
Before and after his election to the presidency, Barack Obama has been painted time and time again as subhuman in graphics, email transmissions and posters used to undermine him. While it’s nothing new for politicians to be turned into caricatures, the ones used to criticize Obama frequently have racial overtones. The president has been portrayed as a shoeshine man, an Islamic terrorist and a chimp, to name a few. The image of his altered face has been shown on a product called Obama Waffles in the manner of Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben. The depictions of Obama as ape-like have arguably sparked the most controversy, considering that blacks have been portrayed as monkey-like for centuries to suggest that they’re inferior to other groups. Still, when Marilyn Davenport, an elected official in the Republican Party of Orange County, Calif., circulated an email depicting Obama and his parents as chimps, she initially defended the image as political satire. Mike Luckovich, Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial cartoonist for the Atlanta Journal Constitution, had a different take. He pointed out to National Public Radio that the image wasn’t a cartoon but Photoshopped.
“And it was crude and it was racist,” he said. “And cartoonists are always sensitive. We want to make people think—we even want to tick people off occasionally, but we don’t want our symbolism to overwhelm our message. …I would never show Obama or an African American as a monkey. That’s just racist. And we know the history of that.”
Shame on (board) Conks.

This is nothing new as has been stated before his presidency has been stated on nothing but race going back to when he first declared that he was running for the highest office in this country.

Lots of deniers, though, Dally. Dig the blackface avatars here.

I think the blackface avatars go back to Opie the wunderposter.
I don't dislike Obama because he is black. I dislike Obama because he makes Jimmy Carter look like a genius.

It's ok to protray Bush as a chimp, but not Obama?

Way to whitewash everyone again. As if GOPers who voted for Keyes in prior elections fall into this category.

Hey dorkface, the blackface avatars went up when your girlfriend Opie was on here showing his a$$. Pay attention. Mine just never came down, but I think I am going to change it to one of you.

Perhaps this old op. ed. piece explains some of it:

To be sure, no white candidate who had close associations with an outspoken hater of America like Jeremiah Wright and an unrepentant terrorist like Bill Ayers would have lasted a single day. But because Mr. Obama was black, and therefore entitled in the eyes of liberaldom to have hung out with protesters against various American injustices, even if they were a bit extreme, he was given a pass.
Let that sink in: Obama was given a pass -- held to a lower standard -- because of the color of his skin.

He may very well have, and Bush had a very high one. But obviously high IQ doesn't make you a great speaker or good POTUS.
