Neither have I (they don't look like monkeys), but since the term "porch monkey" was first used in the 1800s (when slavery was legal), it's been associated with racism. Wonder where "cracker" came from.
Anyway, I'm sure McCain will negotiate with the fish. Bush did say: "I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully." |
Whip-cracker perhaps? If thats the era when porchmonkey came into being? (which, by the way, I'd never even heard of until watching clerks 2).
here is possibly my fave bushism
