Where it all began.....

Because it's couched as a joke, there is some superficial deniability involved. But the deniability in this case is something that only a racist would hide behind. OK, let's rewrite the punch line to make it more believable:- 'Dad, how is it possible that Sarah Palin told me the Human race was created by God, And Michelle Obama said they evolved from apes.' The father answered, 'Well, Dear, it is very simple, Sarah Palin was poorly educated and Michelle Obama was well educated.' BEG Mark Rand RTFM A little more research is needed here also as according to the most authoritative reference the same entity that created Sarah's ancestors also created Michelle's, regardless of who/what they might be. In fact, if we are to believe the joke Michelle must be at least the Mark II version - the new, improved version - while Sarah is the original, unimproved model. If the universal advise - "never buy version I" is to be believed then the Mark II version is obviously the one to go with. Regards, J.B. |
