What's the difference between Bush and a petulant, shit-flinging chimpanzee?
Seriously ... This is not a rhetorical question ... I can't think of a fucking thing.

Oops, "The chimp smell better"? I'm in a serious X-mas cookie sugar coma.

3. Put it this way: what's the difference between Bush and Bonzo?
One's a petulant, shit-flinging chimpanzee, and the other one's an ape.

(Or something along those lines)

13. How are Bush* and Bonzo alike? Both had their diapers changed by Ronald Reagan.
How are Bush*, Bonzo, and Ronald Reagan alike? All had their diapers changed by Nancy Reagan. (Nancy had to babysit for Bush* while his father attended a funeral.)

5. Chimps have a longer attention span, are loyal to their troop
and they don't mangle English?

Chimps can devise and use simple tools?

Chimps have never killed and maimed millions of people?

On behalf of those beautiful animals, I protest this comparison.

The chimp is much, much stronger.
Seriously, chimpanzees are scary-strong.

http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a1_001b.html

Chimpanzees look mighty cute trucking around on their roller skates, wearing funny hats, and going "ook, ook," but when roused they are vicious little bastards and not to be trifled with. Blessed with a muscle structure considerably superior to that of Homo sapiens (if not nearly as fetching in a bathing suit), chimpanzees can handle almost anything that comes along. Three drunks at a carnival would be no sweat.

It's a lot easier to get a chimp in roller skates than it is to get him to pump iron--hence, most of the data on chimp strength is anecdotal and decidedly unscientific. In tests at the Bronx Zoo in 1924, a dynamometer--a scale that measures the mechanical force of a pull on a spring--was erected in the monkey house. A 165-pound male chimpanzee named "Boma" registered a pull of 847 pounds, using only his right hand (although he did have his feet braced against the wall, being somewhat hip, in his simian way, to the principles of leverage). A 165-pound man, by comparison, could manage a one-handed pull of about 210 pounds. Even more frightening, a female chimp, weighing a mere 135 pounds and going by the name of Suzette, checked in with a one-handed pull of 1,260 pounds. (She was in a fit of passion at the time; one shudders to think what her boyfriend must have looked like next morning.) In dead lifts, chimps have been known to manage weights of 600 pounds without even breaking into a sweat. A male gorilla could probably heft an 1,800-pound weight and not think twice about it.

(The implication is that Bar mated with another chimp.)

31. The Chimp Would Be A Better President
The chimp would be a better president.

The chimp likely has a better-looking mate.

The chimp's parents make more of a contribution to the welfare of the Earth.

The chimp does not have Dick Cheney as a friend.

The chimp never led a country to war for illegal reasons.
