Racist Republicans

[Rev.Christopher]

My first response to this was "Everyone is making pictures like this. Whats the big deal? Then I realized it's the Republicans, a big target of the media. I liked how they threw in the stereotype about jews, too. It wouldn't be complete without that. This shows you what our nation worries about during our worst economic period since the depression. Also, they're using Obama as a resurgence in "racism awareness." I saw another article called : "Why conservatives don't want a black president."  It's getting ugly real quick. My two news posts were sort of in response to the post I read about the new hate crime legislation. I figured they'll help raise awareness.

The Republican National Committee came under fire after a user posted a controversial photo on its Facebook page. The RNC "fan" upload features a picture of President Obama eating fried chicken with the slogan: "Miscegenation Is a CRIME against American values... Repeal Loving v. Virginia."

Loving v. Virginia is a milestone civil rights case that led the Supreme Court to rule that prohibiting interracial marriage violates the Constitution.

Though the "miscegenation" post was removed from the RNC's Facebook page after provoking outrage, Newsweek points out that the slip-up is not an isolated incident:

E-mail has been a recurring Achilles heel. In February, the mayor of Los Alamitos, Calif., sent around an image of the White House surrounded by watermelons; he was forced to resign. The leader of a San Bernadino County, Calif., Republican women's club resigned last fall when the club circulated a similar photo, with then-candidate Obama surrounded by fried chicken, watermelon and ribs. The web also spread word of two South Carolina Republicans' reference to a stereotype about Jews.

Do you know that a nigger is the chairman of the Republican Party?

More game playing by the Republican Party to keep Joe Sixpack thinking that they are  on on his side while he watches football and drink his beer.
