I can say for myself that I probably wouldn't believe that Republican to be racist. Sometime jokes are just meant for humor. Even though they might be offensive, they don't necessarily indicate disapproval of a certain group.

Like I said, I couldn't decide whether this thread was offensive or funny, but I decided on funny. I don't like seeing a bunch of gay stereotypes repeated, and I don't like that people are using the portrayal of Bush as gay to mean an insult.

But on the other hand, it was a clever enough association of Bush pictures to gay steretypes to be enjoyable to read, and the story to go along with them was, to be frank about it, pretty funny. So I think I will recognize and appreciate the humor for what it is and take no offense where none was intended.
