An Illinois delegate for Democratic Sen. Barack Obama resigned after using the word “monkeys” to describe black children playing in a tree

Read the story and see if you agree that maybe this was an over-reaction?

Can someone get me a list of acceptable words to use?

    We know that “Macaca” is out. That cost George Alen his shot at Pres. (of course Obama can hang with virulent racists and America haters but let a Republican utter one esoteric word considered a slur and he is bye bye baby).

    Perhaps a more scientific term would be acceptable, for example the black Spider monkey is Ateles paniscus
    .

    “Look at the Ateles Panisci playing ion the tree!”

    How does that sound? :)>-
