A Republican women's club in San Bernardino County sent out a recent newsletter with a photo of Barack Obama surrounded by fried chicken, watermelon and ribs compliments of Ms. Fedele.
The excuses she gave along with her explanation about her choice of food are totally unbelievable in fact the more she tried to convince us she wasn't racist the more convinced I am that she is.
It is outrageous! But wait there's more...
An image on the Sacramento County GOP website this week showing Obama in a turban beside Osama bin Laden with the words: "The difference between Osama and Obama is just a little B.S." The site also exhorted members to "Waterboard Barack Obama."
Not all republican's are racist...
Gary Ovitt, a county supervisor and chairman of the San Bernardino County Republican Party stated that "He is disgusted and appalled by it, and he believes it is blatantly racist and offensive no matter what the intent was,"
A sharp reprimand from Ron Nehring, California Republican Party chairman."Any material that invokes issues related to race is absolutely unacceptable, tarnishes our party, diminishes the hard work of the tens of thousands of volunteers who are working hard every day for our candidates, and must be condemned," he said in a statement Thursday. "This material I've seen inspires nothing but divisiveness and hostility and has absolutely no place in this election, or any public discourse."
Republicans and Democrats as well as Independents MUST come together for the sake of our great country and adopt a NO TOLERANCE policy for racism in all of it's ugly forms.
The article stated that volumteers cannot be fired! No they can't... However they can be asked to leave and not come back. Reprimands and giving them a good talkin to is simply NOT enough!
