Elephants seem like gentle, free-spirited animals as opposed to angry, mean-spirited Republicans.

No, but the jack@ss got tired of being the Democrats' symbol, so the Dems have designed a new mascot. It is a hybrid animal which:
Runs from the slightest danger like a gazelle
Changes colors like a chameleon
Has the common sense of a turkey
And lives without a brain like a jellyfish

The Donkey— Presidential candidate Andrew Jackson replaced into the first Democrat ever to be linked with the donkey image. His fighters in the course of the election of 1828 tried to label him a "jackass" for his populist beliefs and slogan, "let the folk rule." Jackson replaced into entertained by technique of the concept and ended up using it to his earnings on his marketing campaign posters. yet cartoonist Thomas Nast is credited with making the donkey the acknowledged image of the Democratic celebration. It first regarded in a caricature in Harper's Weekly in 1870, and replaced into meant to characterize an anti-Civil warfare faction. notwithstanding the customary public replaced into as we talk taken by technique of it and by technique of 1880 it had already develop into the unofficial image of the celebration. The Elephant— Political cartoonist Thomas Nast replaced into also to blame for the Republican celebration elephant. In a caricature that regarded in Harper's Weekly in 1874, Nast drew a donkey clothed in lion's epidermis, scaring away each and each of the animals on the zoo. one among those animals, the elephant, replaced into categorized "The Republican Vote." that's all it took for the elephant to develop into linked with the Republican celebration.

I doubt it. If anyone should be offended it should be the jackasses. They're the symbol of the Democrats! Jeez Louise, it's one thing to be a jackass, but to be a Democrat, well, that's REALLY offensive! These creeps are about to pull the rug out from under our brave men and women in Iraq and Afghanistan, just like they did to my generation in Vietnam. Give me a REAL jackass any day over these political jackasses!

Elephants are entirely bored by this fact. I think they're more worried about, you know, surviving than which political party they've been chosen to symbolize.

No, I am sure they dont notice, they are elephants. They dont care. I think the democratic symbol fits very-well however, the party of the jackass.

Not as bad as the jackass is for being identified as the symbol for the dumbocrats. Donkeys are known for their hard work and diligence. Dumbocrats are known for their, well.....idiocy.
