Michelle Obama Monkey Pictures


Surely in poor taste, and undoubtedly racist... but funny? I don't think so, but I guess somebody does... unless they're just looking to strike-back in any way they can.

The LA Times ran this statement from Google- who are surprisingly stopping-short of removing the image from their search-results... I honestly would think it could be justified, but they're sticking to the letter of their user agreement apparently:

Although Google won't alter the process that places the offending image among its top results, the company placed a house advertisement with the headline "Offensive Search Results" above the picture. Clicking the ad leads to a statement that says, in part, "We assure you that the views expressed by such sites are not in any way endorsed by Google."
The statement apologizes "if you've had an upsetting experience using Google," but it states that Web pages are not removed from its process unless the content is illegal or violates the company's webmaster guidelines. Rubin said nothing in the guidelines deals with this kind of imagery.
Well, decide for yourself... the offending picture can be found -here-
I sure don't know why anyone would waste time bagging on her appearance, anyway- she's doing an unbeatable job herself... -here-
And while it's hard to condone this kind of "humor"... maybe if she didn't hate this country and continue to embarrass us all every time she slips into a new garish outfit and heads-out the door, then there wouldn't be such anger out there... and they'd treat her with a little respect.
Her husband's taking a wrecking-ball to this society isn't helping her appeal one bit, either- a lot of frustrated Americans would do almost anything to get a dig-in on this couple as they continue to ignore the voice of the people and drive the country off a cliff.

And Dan Riehl has more on the story -here-
