Rusty DePass, a G.O.P. activist, said that a gorilla that escaped from a zoo was “just one of Michelle’s ancestors." Thoughts on this:

1) We (humans) are evolved from apes. End of story.
2) Skin color has nothing to do with anything.
3) That said, as long as we're talking about stupidity and monkeybrainedness, Dubya and Reagan looked, and acted, far more like primates than Obama ever had, does, or will. It's all a matter of brains.
4) Ooh ooh ooh ah ah ah! Eee! Eee! Eee!
5) The Monkees seriously should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Bollox on Dave Marsh for holding power o'er who gets in (he's a nasty little man with much to be little about).
6) The Velvet Underground's first album, the one with the banana cover, was what brought down the Berlin Wall.
7) I could go for a peanut-butter-and-banana sandwich right about now. Thank you, King Elvis.
