racist..............no..................stupid.... ....................yes. These people are smart enough to realize that even if their intentions weren't aimed for obama that they would be misconstrued by the likes of sharpton and his band of idiots. I think they thought it was funny relating to the whole rabid monkey incident. Someone warned them that this would be taken wrong, they ignored that and are now feeling the heat. Not everything is based on racism, everything is scrutinized for its racial content though, and anyone with half a brain attempting to avoid drama should realize that.
