So a California mayor emails this pic of watermelon patch around, gets called on it, and then says he didn't know there was a black people watermelon stereotype. I'm sure everyone on here who said the dead chimpanzee cartoon wasn't racist will agree this is in good taste too.

The mayor said he was unaware of the racial stereotype that black people like watermelons.
Oh and he's also unaware that the world is round.

I was one of the people who said the chimp cartoon wasn't racist because it wasn't. Again the chimp did not represent Obama!

This on the other hand is totally racist!

Save some space on your hard drives, good people. We get to look forward to 4 more years of this.

I'm not really a watermelon fan............but truth be told I'd drive down to D.C. and bribe a secret service agent for a slice on that watermelon because I bet it'd be the best tasting watermelon on the planet.....

btw, does anyone know the population of the town this guy runs?

I mean there's mayors of towns with a population of 50, who really gives a fuck what a mayor has to say about the prez?

You've pretty much have to expect these things by now. Shows you how batshit insane the right can be.

Oh, and BTW. If you don't like watermelon, there is something wrong with YOU!

Wow, that's just as stupid as the Obama-Chimp cartoon. These people need to get used to having a black President. Your racism isn't going to make him go away.

I'm officially dumber for reading this post, not because the OP's content here is racist...it IS (unlike the chimp cartoon IMO ), but because some people think batshit crazy only comes in one variety in America or any other part of the world. Fringe exists on polar opposites. Just goes to show how we are NOT over race in this country, nor ever will be, so at least let's bee intellectually honest about it, while still maintaining a sense of humor like some here on the board do.
