Personally, I don’t think Michelle Obama has a face like a monkey. But, there are black people who do. There are white people that look like monkeys. Larry King looks like a frog. Mitch McConnell looks like a turtle.
It’s a tough sell these days to try and convince people that if you say anything negative whatsoever about a minority that it isn’t racist and bigoted. And if you go to “monkey face,” you’re going to be on the perpetually offended radar.
I find it hard to believe this woman didn’t think “monkey face” would earn her a challenge by someone out there.
Should she lose her job?
Well, Bill Clinton called Obama the “coffee boy” and he was poised to be the “first gentleman,” favored by the very people who are looking for this woman’s scalp.
NEWSER) – A pediatric anesthesiologist at the University of Colorado’s medical school is losing her job there after racist Facebook comments directed toward Michelle Obama were flagged, the Denver Post and Denver 7 report. Dr. Michelle Herren reportedly posted a photo that showed the first lady screaming with the comment, “Doesn’t seem to be speaking too eloquently here, thank god we can’t hear her! Harvard??? That’s a place for ‘entitled’ folks said all the liberals!” She then added: “Monkey face and poor ebonic English!!! There! I feel better and am still not racist!!! Just calling it like it is!” Also calling it like it is: Joann Nieto, who informed the university of the comments after she saw the post stayed up for four days.
A school spokesman said Thursday “we are beginning the process to terminate Dr. Herren’s faculty appointment” (a nonpaid position), adding she has “compromised her ability” to teach and care for patients. It’s not yet clear what the fate of her $363,00-a-year job at Denver Health Medical Center will be, though it confirms to Denver 7 she won’t be seeing patients “until further notice.” A rep adds, “We are bumping up against a First Amendment right,” with the Post noting it’s difficult to fire public-sector employees who make offensive remarks when they’re not at work. Herren tells Denver 7 her remarks were taken “out of context” and were in response to another comment that argued people can criticize Melania Trump freely but the same isn’t true for Obama. She added she had no idea “monkey face” might be considered offensive.
Shoot, I thought “monkey face” was a term of endearment. No wonder my sister-in-law got so mad at me.
A DNA sample of Michelle will set this doctor free….monkey/ man/monkey/man….and I think I might love her(not Michelle), so that’s a problem we can manage on a family vacation to Orlando…mayhaps NAPA, I do need some O-rings….
Sorry but I’m not buying that she didn’t realize “monkey face” would make liberals’ heads explode. I’m not generally into getting people fired, but it’s just not wise to play right into their game. She could have said something else critical of the mooch that in court could not be attacked as racist.
Holy shit! The real question is; what, in today’s bullshit PC indoctrination, is NOT Offensive??
Exactly right, pissed.
There are babies being born right now, male whites… they’re racist in today’s environment.
It’s friggin ridiculous.
I remember when chimpy was a favorite term used by the left to describe the president
Well hey, if we’re going to be condemned as racists just for being white, then I say own it and tell the truth.
Truth is, if you body shave a sasquatch, you have Mooch.
I think we need to have the gals over at Motus make the call on this one. And the best part is if you lose you get sent to there well stocked ” Tea Trolley “
Unless Mooch was the anesthesiologist’s patient, why does it matter what she said/thought about Mr Robinson?
Good thing she didn’t burn a flag, that would have really pissed them off…………oh wait.
Mooch is the phooking missing link.
Apes in the plaza!
Hahaha, my dad used to call his grandkids “Baboon-breath, monkey-eyed creatures”. He was too ‘manly’ to gush on them. They loved it.
Mooch isn’t a monkey face. She’s straight out of Alien.
Last year LeBron James’ 2 sons sang Happy Birthday to him. They did the silly version of the song’ You belong in a zoo. You look like a monkey and smell like one too.’ They were googling and precious.
I was waiting for some leftist A Hole in the media to declare those 2 adorable boys to be racist.
Jay-Z resembles Joe Camel, Phoebe from Friends looks like Jar Jar Binks, George Burns always had a chimp thing going on. There’s this old movie where ‘Monkey Face’ was an affectionate nickname. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=X7p1CB87V7Y
It was stinkin’ facebook.
“losing her job there after racist Facebook comments directed toward Michelle Obama were flagged,”
zzz / I don’t facebook
Has Trump appointed a Surgeon General yet?
Is that worse than a shaven wookie?
Is that worse than a shaven wookie?
So even if it was racist, what happened to freedom of speech? Especially in an institution that requires Fed dollars to survive?
I hate P.C. as much as anyone, but I wouldn’t want a pediatric anesthesiologist with such poor judgement putting my grandkids “under” for surgery. Not too smart.
@ Eugenia Happy Deplorable
That is the exact problem, we are being ‘conditioned’ by the libs to expect an outburst for not ‘towing the line’.
I say screw them, each and every one of them….. take full advantage of the 1st Amendment while we still have it.
Since we evolved from primates we’re gonna look like ’em. DUH!!!
“Should she lose her job?”
Yes, she should. How can you confuse monkey with gorilla ? 😉
@Machloja, I know, right? Monkeys are kinda cute, apes, not so much.
@Tony R.
No. We either have freedom of speech or we don’t.
Guess what?
If the radical Left keeps calling decent White people racist, misogynistic, Islamophobic, anti-immigrant, anti-Semitic, and anti-LGBTQ long enough, then maybe that’s just what they’re gonna wind up with!
I know that I for one am getting real damn tired of of seeing all this fabricated, ginned-up victim-hood!
So I guess horse’s A$$ is out of the question too?
I think the Moose has a few extra Y chromosomes.
Gee, who would ever think “shit for brains” might be considered offensive?
I would like to set the record straight. Larry King does not look like a frog. He looks like a fish. In fact, we’ve been referring to him as ‘FishFace” since he’s been on the air.
Perhaps “simian- visage” might have been a less deplorable descriptive term.
But you gotta admit that is one fine sasquatch.

I thought he was hilarious. Still do. Piss on you progs.
Don’t forget the classic “porch monkey”.
