Korea Central News Agency (KCNA), which is the mouthpiece of the government in Pyongyang, made the attack in one of two pieces that was aimed at Mr Obama and South Korean president Park Geun-hye.
on May 2, KCNA wrote: "Park made waste water-like reckless remarks ... after inviting her American master reminiscent of a wicked black monkey to visit South Korea."
Other attacks in the commentary, according to the Washington Post, described Mr Obama as being "a crossbreed with unclear blood" and like someone who "has the figure of a monkey while the human race has evolved through millions of years".
It also called Mr Obama a "clown," a "dirty fellow" and somebody who "does not even have the basic appearances of a human being".
In a second piece about Mr Obama, the news agency quoted a series of North Korean workers.
A North Korean monitoring site, NK News, translated one of them as saying: "How Obama looks like makes me disgusted.
"As I watch him more closely, I realise that he looks like an African native monkey with a black face, gaunt grey eyes, hollowed out nostrils, plump mouth and hairy rough ears," the workers was quoted as saying.
He continued: "He acts just like a monkey with a red bum irrationally eating everything - not only from the floor but also from trees here and there.
"Africa's national zoo will be the perfect place for Obama to live (by) licking bread crumbs thrown by visitors."
The US government broke from its usual practice of ignoring the communist country's rhetoric.
National Security Council spokeswoman Caitlin Hayden said: "While the North Korean Government-controlled media are distinguished by their histrionics, these comments are particularly ugly and disrespectful."

Just be grateful he never used the N word or worse implied that he was a gayer. Then they would have had to invade.

their economy is bad in N Korea. Seems like there's a market for paying their leader to say slanderous things about other leaders. "Here's $50K call Putin a c***!".

the same news agency during Obama’s visit to South Korea also attacked the UN commission of inquiry into North Korean human rights abuses chief Michael Kirby, stating that as a homosexual he could not comment on moral issues.

Tobermory, If the residents of the local lunatic asylum make insane statements, it doesn't mean you have to post them on the internet, presumably to invite other lunatics to also have a go! |

NLad you think German women are like elephants! you posted this on a public forum, yet call yourself part of the anti racist brigade. How can you not see the damage you are doing to your reputation! |

By:
NO Larry!
Farage said - "There is an elephant in the room." as he often does. The only elephant on that panel was himself & UKip. And as he'd earlier said he doesn't like hearing foreign voices on a train, maybe he and his German wife (who as his EU paid secretary & goes every where with him.) should get a taxi home. |

northernnutjob scores another own goal.
He and the other moron, the fake major Menelaus, call everybody who disagrees with them 'Larry', thus implying that they are aliases of EeternalOptimist, who used to post as 'Larrys Codpiece'. Indeed, the fake Major and bigamist (which he went to prison for) suggested that EO was a 'psychopath' for having aliases to back him up. This is much easier for them to digest than actually thinking that what they post is wrong, and that's why so many disagree with the pair of cretins. Then, not exactly to our to our amazement, the fake Major got banned. But he had not 1, but 2 more accounts in the wings, to enable him to continue the same arguments. But, does that, in his own words, make him a 'psychopath? Of course not, he thinks it's perfectly acceptable to have more than one identity at the same time. Then we discover that when northenrnutjob failed to switch identities in order to back up one of his own ludicrous claims, he also has another identity that he posts under. So the pair have one banned plus 4 current accounts between them, and they think EO is mad. You couldn't make it up. |

Shut up Larry! Get back to the politics forum and take your aliases with you.
This is my forum now!  |

I'm not Larry.
You're not sane. |

"This is my forum now!"
only in your dreams I'm afraid |

By:
I have serious problems in accepting this business of multiple identities. It smacks, to me, of dishonesty. I cannot see why anybody would feel the need for two personae, unless it was to act as a self-supporting mechanism or to deliberately enable one to get banned for abusive posts.
Both reasons are reprehensible. |
