Man Holds Monkey Doll With Obama Sticker At Palin Rally (VIDEO)

CBS reports:

As the crowd cheered at a Sarah Palin rally this morning in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, a man in the audience grinned as he held up a stuffed monkey doll with a Barack Obama bumper sticker wrapped across its forehead.

After Palin finished her remarks this morning, the man holding the stuffed monkey seemed to notice that a video camera was pointed at him, at which point he removed the Obama sticker from the doll's head and crumpling it up in his hand. He then handed the doll to a young boy who was watching the rally from his father's shoulders. The boy's parents later told CBS News that they weren't acquainted with the man who gave their son the stuffed monkey.

But in this video, the man is clearly proud of his work:

Has Fox interviewed the monkee, can't wait for the twist they put on it....

[Libertynjustice4all]

Unfortunately, this pathetically dim individual may very well represent a sizable part of the electorate.

[shelly4]

I don't even have words for this. Just these:

No How! No Way! No McCain! No Palin!

This is very sad that people can actually be that ignorant! If racism is what everything is going to come down to then probably the Native Americans should take their country back and send everyone else home and see how they like not having Freedom! Or maybe us Americans should grow up and not look at the color of other people and look at who they are and their intellect!

It is best for Obama if everyone sticks to the issues of healthcare and economics.
Talking about race right now is, I think harmful to him because anger is a BIG negative in Presidential races. The fringe element of the Republican party is race baiting. Don't take the bate. I was disappointed to see CNN running some very inflammatory stuff this weekend. I wish they would stop. If people get riled up about the crazy racist stuff the GOP fringe is doing, it will bring Obama down. That is why they are doing it. Keep your eye on the end game. Don't let them change the subject and inject anger into the positive view the Dems have been presenting.
DON"T let them get your goat.
If they make US angry, THEY win.

[hortonhearsawho]

Agreed, however, the "fringe" assement....i dunno.....sounds mainstream palin to me.

[SteveStephens]

Hey, can you send me that bumber sticker? I dropped by an Obama Office mid town in Omaha Nebraska, and they were out of bumper stickers and yard signs. Can you believe that?

[hortonhearsawho]

I was gonna say if you needed any palin stuff, well, i was about to take a dump and....

[sisteract]

This kind of behavior is gross. Shame on him.

[PitBullWoman]

I hope this man doesn't have children. If he does, I pity them. They are going to have to live with this shameful image f-o-r-e-v-e-r.

[renatam]

Should be child abuse for someone to teach children, who have to thrive in a very diverse and global 21st Century, this kind of thinking.

[Phoebe917]

absolutely. but i have seen these people in action: it is very scary/crazy. i got a dirty diaper thrown at me while campaigning for Obama today at a local corner: this sh*t is alive and well.

[leftintheus]

How could the Americans standing in line with this racist do nothing, say nothing? They just stood there, some with amusement on their faces. What does this say about McCain/Palin supporters?

[Gina322]

They were all laughing. They thought this was very funny.

[Happylib]

They are supporting McCain/Palin....doesn't that tell you all you need to know about their critical thinking skills, taste, and decency?

[scrutiny1]

They're ignorant, just like McCain/Palin.

[joebiz]

White sheets for Palin/McCain.

And, what's with the ads of monkey sock puppets on this site below? The ad reads, "Make your own Sock Friends, Complete Kits." There's an octopus, dog ,and monley sock puppets What poor, poor taste. Take it down.

[renatam]

Halloween will be a blast this year! Thanks Governor of Alaska!

[thinkworklivelove]

How tasteless! What does this make McSame and abuse of power Palin if they are pallin' around with these people?

THEY HAVE OPENED UP PANDORA'S BOX!! The McSame Camp knowingly stoked the fire with full knowledge that Americans have a fragile history with these issues.

[SteveStephens]

Wow. Obviously it's still 1954 in the GOP.

[renatam]

Hey...we SAW that at their (Klan) Convention! Everyone SEES their Party looks like Sweden. The MSM doesn't comment -- pretending it is NORMAL.

[Bitsko]

Are we shocked? The republicans have been the party of racism for decades.

[DrDemon]

You got THAT right!

[hortonhearsawho]

I will just BETCHA he slaps the the monkey when he gets home....

[Budokan]

Think about it. This guy has finally hit his 15 minutes of fame...and it's for being a racist. His children must be proud.
