No, of course Sen. George Allen didn't mean to call that one not-quite-white audience member a macaca, a racial epithet meaning monkey.  Twice.



Although it's still not quite clear what Allen actually meant to say.

Was it alpaca?

Alpaca plays footy

Chewbacca?

Chewie!

Or Boom-Chaka-Laka?

Boom-chaka, boom-chaka, BOOM-chaka-laka-laka

Senator Akaka?

The do-nothing Democrat

Baraka?

Bulworth's inner voice

Or a New Zealand Haka?

Ka mate, ka mate!  Ka ora, ka ora!

I'm sure one of those also explains why he told the darker-skinned man, who was born in Virginia and is thus at least as much an American as Allen, "welcome to America."

Allen wants to be president in 2008, btw.
