Hasn't got a thing to do with Obama or his competency

I believe it has everything to do with his race.

There was a time when I would have been bothered to see the leader of our country ridiculed in this way. After seeing every president in the past 40 years, GOP and Dems caricatured and mocked in so many ways, I am numb to it and it rolls right off of my back.

For this to have become such a viral incident, instead of being completely unnoticed, it has to be racial. This really pisses me off. If it is the Governor of Missouri that did this I would dearly love to slap the shit out of him.
