The following is a Post Election update (n) A virulent racial pejorative, common in Europe, that was obscure in the US until it burst upon the scene during the 2006 Senate Elections. The term, the equivalent of “nigger” (a macaque is a monkey genus) is used primarily in France, especially among former colonizers in North Africa, to describe any person of color, most notably Moslems. When Sen. George Allen used the term to signal out a young man of Indian descent in the crowd for derision, a firestorm hit that directly tipped the balance of power in the US Senate. Allen, a former shoo-in (and until then considered a Presidential candidate), was defeated in a very tight election, ensuring a 51-49 Democratic control of the Senate. Urban Dictionary
